It looks like Wii owners are in for more classic RPG goodness soon. The ESRB has a new listing for Lufia & the Fortress of Doom revealing that the old SNES RPG is headed for Nintendo's Virtual Console Service. Here's what the listing has to say about the game:

"This is a role-playing game in which players must save a fantastical world from evil beings. Players travel across continents, interact with other characters, and engage in turn-based battles with a variety of small creatures (e.g., elves, goblins, frogs, wolves). Using a menu system, players select actions (e.g., Stun, Poison, Thunder) that result in colorful hit-point damage against enemies, which disappear when defeated."

Lufia & the Fortress of Doom follows the reemergence of the evil Sinistral army after they and their floating Fortress of Doom were sent packing by four heroes: Maxim, Selan, Artea, and Guy. Players take control of a red-haired boy who gets caught up in the escalating conflict as the Sinistrals once again mount another attack on the world of Lufia.

No word yet on a proper release date, but since the game has already been rated by the ESRB we can probably expect it to be on the Virtual Console service soon.
