Lately we’ve been a bit jealous of Japan, as they seem to be getting the bestPhantasy Starstuff. My jealous rage increased to a fiery crescendo when I saw that theJapanese Wii Virtual Console getsPhantasy Star IItoday. But I’m better now after reading the good news atVC Reviews.
They say that the ESRB confirms that we will also see a Virtual Console release of the once $100+ Sega Genesis RPGPhantasy Star II.Sure, fans already have countless other copies of the same game in various game collections, but I think this is a good fit for the VC, which has been lacking some RPG lovin’. Besides, it gives us hope for future RPGs and Sega property releases.
TheJapanese VC release pagesays thatPSIIwill cost 700 Wii points. That’s not a bad price drop from the original release price, even if it has been over a decade.
Hey, Sega. How about moreShining Forcereleases? Really, what’s taking so long?
