Nintendo's Virtual Console – 200 Games Old!

They grow up so fast! This week sees the 200th title to hit Nintendo's Virtual Console service for the Wii. To show off the service's new found maturity, Nintendo is hitting us up with a spot of old-school gaming in the form of the first of the Commodore 64 titles we were promised back in February.

First up, we've got Uridium. It's a sci-fi shooter that sees the solar system invaded by 15 Super-Dreadnoughts. Your job is to fend the blighters off, defending each of 15 planets from enemy fighters. Originally developed in 1986 by pioneer games programmer Andrew Braybrook, who also worked on the likes of Paradroid 90 and Gribbly's Day Out, Uridium will set you back 500 Wii Points.

Next in line we have International Karate. The game... doesn't need much explanation really, does it? Jet around the world, fight people, earn a black belt. Do it in two-player mode, if you like. Like Uridium, it was released in 1986 and will also set you back 500 Wii Points.

Bringing things a little closer to the modern day, we have Cruis’n USA, originally released into homes for the N64 in 1998. The game started life in the arcades and takes players around the USA, taking in locations such as LA, the arid deserts of Arizona and Washington DC. Cruis’n USA features a 14 stage cross-country solo challenge as well as split-screen two-player. It can be yours for 1,000 Wii Points.
