The Virtual Console on Wii U will be growing the next couple of weeks with games in series that are represented at E3.

Tomorrow will see the GBA's Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones release on Virtual Console. The 3DS ambassador title was spotted on the ESRB website with a Wii U rating earlier today, and Nintendo confirmed the release on a calendar posted to Twitter a short time ago.

Also on the calendar are Star Fox Command and Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time, both for the DS. These two games will release on the Wii U Virtual Console next week, June 25.

Fire Emblem yes!!!!


Is Star Fox Command good?

[broodwars]

Well, at least Sacred Stones is worth buying and Command isn't....terrible...

[Mop it up]

Aw, was hoping it was SNES Star Fox.

Still hoping for a VC release of the SNES Star Fox 2.


I never got SF Command so I may check it out down the road. I WANT to support Fire Emblem but owning all of the original games keeps me away from it. Might be better off buying a complete GBA player for my Gamecube.

Good idea for NOA to keep sitting on Zero Mission, it's not like Metroid fans are angry this week or anything.

Fire Emblem yes!!!!


Is Star Fox Command good?

I enjoyed it for awhile but then it became repetitious and tedious at the end. Especially if you want to unlock all the endings / go down all the potential paths.

Command basically just puts you in small free range sections in which you fight and do the same things a lot over and over. There's a missile chase that is fun at first but then gets old. The strategy / map movement is something that wore on me after awhile and is the biggest reason why you will fail a mission. My recommendation is that it is fun for awhile and I thought it controlled pretty well with the stylus and touch screen once I learned and adapted to that. However, after maybe the third or fourth time you've beat it or unlocked a new ending, you may find your enthusiasm for the game to be over and bored with it.
