Japanese VC releases- January

[Napalmbrain]

Japan's VC releases for January have been announced, which of course means there's a possibility some of them could be released here in the West:

Famicom:
-Yie Air Kung Fu (January 8th)
-(Master Takahashi's) Adventure Island
-Devil World
-Mappy

Super Famicom:
-Super R-Type

Nintendo 64:
-1080 Snowboarding

Mega Drive:
-Phantasy Star II
-Monster World IV

PC Engine:
-Samurai Ghost (January 8th)
-Super Air Zonk
-Neo Nectaris (A CD installment of the Military Madness series)

Neo Geo:
-Nothing this month (Again!)

This probably means we'll get 1080 Snowboarding as the next N64 game. I'll be ecstatic if they give us Monster World IV.

RPG fans should check out Phantasy Star II when it makes it here, even if it is a little dated compared to PS IV.
