News: Enjoy your St. Patrick's Day with the Bydo Empire.
Well, it's St. Patrick's Day, which means Irish food and Irish beer and green, lots and lots of green. You know who wears a lot of green? Link for The Legend of Zelda series. You know what game isn't on the Virtual Console yet? The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask? You know what Nintendo did for St. Patrick's Day? Released two games that have nothing to do with St. Patrick's Day.
Instead, we're treated to the Super NES launch title Super R-Type and the NES cave-crawler Spelunker.
Does neither of these titles ring a bell? Here's what Nintendo has to say:
Spelunker (NES, 1 player, Rated E for Everyone, 500 Wii Points): Wander through miles of uncharted caves in search of the legendary underground pyramid and its vast treasures. To complete your adventure, you will swing from ropes and ladders, run across unstable terrain and down ravines, operate elevators, mining carts and rafts. You will collect keys, bombs, flares, jewels, sacks of gold coins and other valuable items as you navigate the hazardous terrain. But beware of the scalding steam vents, poisonous bats and the avenging spirits of dead spelunkers that lurk in every corner of this massive underground labyrinth.
Super R-Type (Super NES, 1 player, Rated E for Everyone Ч Mild Fantasy Violence, 800 Wii Points): A galactic battle begins. The Bydo Empire of mutant extraterrestrials is back with evil intent and awesome power. Now the evil empire is poised to launch a new attack on Earth. Only the revolutionary R-9, the planet's most advanced form of defense, stands between these monsters and doom. Fight through seven challenging stagesЧpicking up power-up items as you progressЧon the way to each stage's memorable boss. Is the Bydo Empire invincible? You'll need lightning reflexes, intuitive moves and a big dose of cosmic luck to hold your own. Better prepare yourself, because the mutants "R" ready for you.
