While we get Virtual Console updates on an (arguably better) Friday, the US gets their updates earlier in the week on Monday. However, with the recent release of wave Race 64 on the US Virtual Console, many players have noticed that several textures in the game have been swapped out, from previous Kawasaki logos to Wii and DS ads. Most probably these textures were replaced due to licensing issues. Now, with some texture swaps to the good old menus of Sin & Punishment, perhaps we will see the title at some point along the line? We can only hope.
