Well this could explain why the Virtual Console has been all dry this year. Nintendo of Europe, grand-lord controllers of all of the PAL region’s Virtual Console releases, has announced that the next import fest, aka Hanabi Festival, will kick off this Friday.

The first week’s titles will be Castlevania: Rondo of Blood from the Turbografx. The game, like all Hanabi titles, was never previously released in PAL regions. This of course means it’ll be a nice 100 Points more than regular Turbografx titles.

Future titles include (but are not limited to) Milon’s Secret Castle and Ironclad, among others.

We don’t know how many weeks this festival will last for, but it’s better than nothing for sure!
