Sorry, retro heads, no old-school loving for you. Not on Virtual Console at least. But if you own a DSi you should get on DSiWare and check out Earthworm Jim.
It's one of our favourite Super NES games - you play as a worm wearing a super suit with a little red gun that works and sounds like a giant assault rifle, and blast your way through a twisted world of mutants and snot monsters.
What's happened to Virtual Console anyway? It's weekly updates used to be exciting.
Here's the full list of DSiWare, thanks to Shacknews:
Nintendo DSiWare
Photo Dojo
Publisher: Nintendo
Players: 1-2
ESRB Rating: E10+ (Everyone 10 and Older) - Violence
Price: Zero Nintendo DSi Points through June 10, 2010; 200 Nintendo DSi Points starting June 11, 2010
Description: Welcome to Photo Dojo, where you create a dojo filled with ruthless (or humorous) fighting machines using images of you and your friends. Use the Nintendo DSi system's built-in camera to take pictures of yourself and your friends in various poses, then use the built-in microphone to record sound effects and dialogue to give your warrior a voice. Choose one of the four available fighting styles, name your character and you're done. Better yet, repeat the simple, step-by-step process and create a lineup of up to eight fighters. Complete your game setup by customizing backgrounds and choosing from three awesome soundtracks, then prepare for battle. Two players can share one Nintendo DSi system to face off against each other in a one-on-one grudge match, while single-player mode offers the chance to pick your favorite fighter and take on relentless opponents of your own creation. If you're ready for some seriously offbeat kung fu action, Photo Dojo's unique twist on the side-scrolling beat-'em-up genre lets you use your imagination to set the stage for a fun-filled fight to the finish.
