Metal Slug - Image 1 It's official: NeoGeo will support Nintendo's Wii Virtual Console in Japan and SNK games are expected to barge in by the end of this year as revealed by the Nintendo Japan website. 

While King of Fighters titles may not be seen in the near future, some details were shared by the site. Adding to its roster of NES, SNES, Famicom, Super Famicom and N64 classics are MSX titles which are due out in April and SNK's Playmore games which will hit sometime this summer. For the price of 800 Wii points, fans can enjoy Eggy and Aleste soon.

Neo Geo and MSX were anticipated to join the VC show dating from months back but official dates were not disclosed. We'll keep you posted for further developments.

it won't be 100% good because nintendo is really going take off special features including blood, boobs, samurai showdown fatality. metal slug did not look fun on gba. asking for approtaite games on virtual console. plus i don't need neogeo because i got so many good ones whith 100% neo geo power.
