Title: Bionic Commando in the Faxanadu Mission
Post by: Kairon on February 21, 2012, 05:48:33 PM

This batch of virtual console games contains two Game Boy classics now available on the 3DS, and an NES title that bears a striking resemblance to Zelda II.

Didn't own a Game Boy growing up? Looking for a NES retro classic but don't know where to start? The NWR staff continues to pick through Nintendo's Virtual Console library, finding the diamonds in the rough... or maybe just the rough.

This time around both Neal and J. P. had to sacrifice a dimension on their 3DS systems to play Game Boy Virtual Console releases. Will both Maru the Ninja and the Bionic Commando emerge unscathed? Then Andy digs deep and returns to the World tree in Faxanadu, a game that he reports has a lot in common with Nintendo's own Zelda II.

I would add that Faxanadu has a really addictive leveling up system for a 2D NES game, and further emphasize that the music is great.
