Virtual Console

Japanese only games heading our way on Virtual Console?

by Daniel VuckovicFebruary 15, 2007

When the Virtual Console was announced everyone thought it would be great if Nintendo could now release some games from other regions. Games we missed could be re-released on the cheap and maybe we could pick up some Japanese games. Sadly this hasnt been the case, but its seems this could be changing in the future.

More inside
Speaking to Wireds Chris Kohler, Nintendo of Americas Senior VP George Harrison spoke out about how and when Japanese games might make its way to American Virtual Console (and hopefully Europe/Australia).

“”We are aware that there are some very successful Japanese franchises that have a small following in the US, and that they could never be reached by putting these products out at retail. Were open to games released in Japan if we can get them translated properly.””

If thats the case then Sin and Punishment should be heading to the Virtual Console really soon right Nintendo?
