Reliable site for US Virtual Console releases?...

Post by dave4shmups »

I've tried this one:

http://www.vc-reviews.com/games/soon?re ... 9460162539

but it doesn't seem to be too accurate, and even though I have US selected as a region, it's still showing C64 Euro releases.

If there are better websites for VC releases, I'd sure like to know!

It's taking a while to load, but the VC page at the official US Nintendo site should be good and up-to-date.

If you are looking for third party source for concrete dates on future releases, such a site does not exist. Nintendo holds the key, and they decide when to open the door. Even the developer can be left in the cold. More info can be found here:

That's a shame, because that's exactly the kind of site I was looking for. Oh well, at least now I know! It wouldn't kill Nintendo to release this stuff, especially with old-school VC releases-I'd love to be able to see what old console game is coming out next week, or in two weeks.

Does anyone remember when the Wii VC got a shmup almost every other week? Yeah, those were the days.

Some of the best shmups don't actually end in a vowel.
No, this game is not Space Invaders.
