They demand to know the secrets of Billy’s martial-arts style in exchange for his girlfriend. However, Billy won’t stand for these underhanded tactics and decides to rescue her himself. Help him fight through city streets, buildings, jungles, temples and various other locations in a quest to find his girl. He’ll gain experience by using different fighting techniques to obtain more hearts, which will unlock more powerful techniques to use against his enemies. Keep an eye out for crates, boulders, whips, bats, knives and even dynamite along the way, as Billy can also use them to annihilate opponents. Armed with his mysterious and powerful martial arts, help Billy pummel his way through an array of goons, gang members and other Black Warrior scum to free Marian from their clutches.

GameJew from mannmade.tv has informed me that he has put out a new video this week and as always he takes a look at this week’s virtual console releases on the Wii. I’ve only watched a bit of the video so far, but from what I’ve seen/heard this week’s songs are pretty good. All you have to do now is follow the jump and press play.
Video Demo: The Legend of the Mystic Ninja
April 24, 2008 3:03 pm
First thing, sorry about missing last week’s virtual console video demo, I’ve been pretty busy although that really is not a good excuse. So, lets get on to this week’s video ok? This week I play the game The Legend of the Mystic Ninja, a Super Nintendo game, on the virtual console. My first reactions to this game were being a bit confused as to what I was supposed to do, but I quickly figured out that whacking the guys and picking up the objects that they drop was a good idea and whacking the girls and getting touched by the guys is a very bad idea.
After the initial wandering around phase I work my way to the first boss of the game, but due to my lack of skill and time spent playing this game I quickly lost after figuring out the weak spot. All in all, I think the game has some potential for being fun if I had spent more time with it and don’t forget there is two player support so that could add a bit of fun as well. So, now I suggest you follow the jump and check out this week’s virtual console video demo and decide for yourself.
Virtual Console Releases For April 21 2008
April 21, 2008 7:16 am
It’s Monday again and I think Nintendo has finally got the right idea in their head, by which I mean they have released some worthy virtual console games this week. Sadly we still aren’t seeing a three game release, but none the less these two virtual console games should satisfy some. This week’s new games are: River City Ransom for the Nintendo and Phantasy Star III Generations of Doom for the Sega Genesis.

(20 votes, average: 3.8 out of 5) Loading ...River City Ransom takes place in River City, where our heroes, Alex and Ryan, find a letter on Ryan’s locker from a guy named Slick. The letter says that Ryan’s girlfriend, Cyndi, has been kidnapped, and Slick has taken River City hostage with the help of countless gangs and evil bosses. It’s up to our heroes to save poor Cyndi and free River City from the clutches of Slick and his underlings. You can play as Alex and take on the challenge alone or battle with two players simultaneously as Alex and Ryan. Kick and punch to fight your way through gang members, evil bosses and other goons, or use a variety of weapons including a chain whip, brass knuckles and a tire, to name a few. Raise your stats by eating right, and gain new techniques by reading books. With your fighting prowess and never-ending spirit, the bad guys won’t know what hit them.

But Maia is kidnapped on your wedding day, setting you on a quest filled with twists and turns that will reintroduce you to people and places from previous Phantasy Star games. This epic spans several generations of characters, and your choices will dramatically impact the way the story unfolds, which makes it a great game to play all the way through more than once. In Phantasy Star III, things aren’t always what they seem-check it out and watch the mysteries unfold.

Looks like GameJew has done it again with a new singing reviews of this week’s virtual console releases. It truly appears that he did not find the latest games to be much of an addition to the virtual console lineup, but the songs are quite interesting so I suggestion a quick viewing even if you are not interested in Fantasy Zone or Mega Turrican. So in other words, check out this week’s Mushroom Singdom after the jum.
*Note* This week’s virtual console video demo is going to be late, I blame school on it, but hopefully I’ll have a new one up and ready Thursday night or Friday some time.
Virtual Console Releases For April 14 2008

Another Monday and another set of two virtual console games have been slated for release. The new virtual console games for this week are: Fantasy Zone for the Sega Master System and Mega Turrican for the Sega Genesis.
Fantasy Zone

Take command of the spaceship Opa-Opa and blast your way through various fantastical levels as you try to take out all the enemy bases in each stage. Once you’ve destroyed the bases, you’ll have to beat the stage boss in order to move on to the next level. By using your guns and bombs wisely, you’ll be able to take down your enemies and explore each of the crazy environments in this side-scroller. You can also buy upgraded weapons for your ship by accessing the shop. Various Sega games through the years have referenced the Opa-Opa-now you can play the game that started it all.
