I wonder if the Wii will get any Tengen games or...

other unlicsensed games, on it's Virtual Console? I know there were lawsuits over these games, but it's been years now, and maybe Nintendo would allow this.

I hope so, because I really like a lot of Tengen's games; not just on the NES, but on the Genesis, as well.

NES Road Runner is a particular favorite of mine, as well as NES Fire Hawks (Eat your heart out, Strike series!), and MiG 29.

Tengen had the better Tetris of the two, by far.

I guess it just depends on how Nintendo feels about it. I don't know who owns the rights to Tengen games; I guess Atari would.

Or better yet: Color Dreams games! Master Chu and the Drunkard Hu, Raid 2020, Baby Boomer; all these games were choice.

Although, in answer to your question Dave, I doubt it.

It'd be Midway, since they've been releasing Atari Games (Tengen) titles such in their own compilations which now mix Midway, Williams, and Tengen games.

Once bought out by Midway, Atari Games/Tengen became Midway Games West to avoid confusion with Hasbro's Atari. MGW is now disbanded as of 2003.

Geh! ... So now it's either midway, ea, or sammy? This gaming stuff is becomming a monopoly.
