EU VC update 04/01/08

Nintendo have a knack for surprising everyone. Unfortunately, they're not always good surprises, like last week's VC no-show for example. They've not been so malevolent this week, but instead of the usual Sega week, we have just one game. Again. Could Nintendo make their Europe-hating policy any more obvious than it is already? We get one game again, while the Americans continue to get three games a week. But then, Nintendo wouldn't dare upset their precious North American market so frequently. It's no wonder Sega used to outdo Nintendo on this side of the pond.

Oh yeah, I was so busy ranting I forgot about the game. It's Harvest Moon. It's apparently fairly good, and it's a lot cheaper than trying to find the original cartridge on the SNES.

Magnificent... It doesn't bother me, but there must be something out there that is holding these guys back. I mean come on, 1 game? They couldn't even pull the stops out for xmas!! It's getting a little tedious now, I've actually given up on the whole "waiting for a good game" thing. Harvest moon is cool and all, but there hasn't been a 64 release in quite some time now. Still... At least we get something I guess (",)

And if they were good Sega games (come on, you can't tell me you honestly think all Sega games are shit, right)? And what about us who don't particularly care for farming simulators?

Would you say that if they brought out Rondo of Blood?

I'm not sure but I think the Neo Geo version had blood.
