It's Monday again, and that means more retro love implanted directly from Nintendo into your brain via the Wii Virtual Console. This week's announcements may not be amazingly surprising (we knew all three of the games were on the way), but there's still some decent retro gaming for your buck.
Released early this morning on Wii's Shop Channel are NES's classic Excite Bike, SEGA's Beyond Oasis for the SEGA Genesis (a healthy mix of Zelda and Aladdin), and the kill-fest Splatterhouse for TurboGrafx 16. Each game lands at the expected system price, with Beyond Oasis at 800 points ($8), Excite Bike at 500 ($5), and Splatterhouse at 600 ($6).

Beyond Oasis: A healthy mix of Zelda and Aladdin.
But before you go downloading straight-away, we've found an odd glitch on Wii's Virtual Console that you'll have to work around. For whatever reason, Exicte Bike isn't listed at the top of the "Newest Additions" folder, so you'll need to either go to the second page to find it, or look in the NES folder in the system-specific list. Between Excite Bike, Splatterhouse, and Beyond Oasis (all three fan-favorites on their respective systems) there's a healthy dose of gaming that should last you well through Wii's next rush of titles which - as a matter of fact - comes tomorrow.
