Fatal Fury, Art of Fighting, and World Heroes start us down Neo Geo memory lane.
A while back, Nintendo announced plans that the Wii would support the Neo Geo AES in the summer. This did come to fruition in Japan. But now, the United States gets their chance, possibly at the end of this year.
SNK-Playmore confirmed today that Neo Geo games would indeed be coming to U.S. Wiis on the Virtual Console, starting with some franchises that spawned sequels: Fatal Fury, Art of Fighting, and World Heroes. These are not the compressed games found on the Genesis or SNES, so we will be getting their original form. Neo Geo games will be going for 900 Wii points, a little more expensive than their SNES and Genesis counterparts.
Got something constructive to say? By all means, rant away. Gonna blab about something unrelated and/or talk shit? Don't expect your comment to stick around.
