ESRB Virtual Console Updates
« on: August 31, 2007, 10:56:59 AM »
The ESRB rates a few more games ahead of their official announcements.

 Continuing today's Virtual Console information flow, the Entertainment Software Ratings Board updated their ratings list.  The update included a couple new Virtual Console games.  The first is Vegas Stakes, a casino simulator that Europe and Australia received today.  It received an E with a notice of the obvious gambling content.  The other game is Super Street Fighter II: The New Challengers, which proves that Capcom has no problem releasing the many iterations of Street Fighter II on the Virtual Console. Like its predecessors, the game received a T for violence.      


Additionally, Castlevania II: Simon's Quest was rated by the ESRB a couple weeks ago.  It received an E and includes "mild fantasy violence."  It is likely that these three games will show up in September if not next Monday.

haha, wasn't this the game that received the famous Nintendo Power cover way back when it first came out? The one where a real guy dressed like Simon is holding up a decapitated Dracula head?

Still waiting for darned Zombies to Eat my Neighbors.
Carmine Red, Associate Editor

A glooming peace this morning with it brings;
The sun, for sorrow, will not show his head:
Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things;
Some shall be pardon'd, and some punished:
For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Sega and her Mashiro.

Should we all be waiting for SSFIIT:CE or is New Challengers just as good?
Did they ever brin out the "extra chip" version onto any of the consoles or was strictly an arcade thing?

I'm pretty sure that New Challengers is the last SF2 game to come out for the SNES.  Having already bought the previous 2 iterations of the game, I'll be passing this over.  i will, however, pick up the HD Remix'd one for the 360.  That is supposedly going the be a remake of SSF2T.
