Kirby, Devil’s Crush and Shining Force Hitting American VC

It’s the summer time and Nintendo wants the American Wii gamers to play golf and pinball. Kirby’s Dream Course, Devil’s Crush and Shining Force are coming to the American Virtual Console.

Here are the details of the American VC games:

Kirby’s Dream Course (Super NES, 1-2 players, 800 Wii Points):

Step up to the tee for the wackiest golf game of your life. This one- or two-player game features a floating golf course in the sky. High above Dream Land, players can pitch and putt the ever-popular puff ball, Kirby, through a maze of three-dimensional obstacles on a zany checkerboard course. Gamers must aim for the massive amount of enemies that are spread throughout each fairway. Kirby must hit all the enemies to make them vanish and the last one becomes the hole. Sink Kirby into the hole to advance to the next stage and clear all 8 courses – 64 holes in all.

Devil’s Crush (TurboGrafx16, 1-2 players, Mild Fantasy Violence, 600 Wii Points):

Devil’s Crush is the exciting sequel to the hit pinball game Alien Crush and features even smoother ball movement and improved special effects. Shoot the ball onto the board with the Devil Shooter, then use flippers and nudging to keep it in play and rack up a high score. Complete certain conditions to play up to six different bonus stages. Get a “Perfect Clear” on those to earn a huge amount of points. The game’s ominous theme is enhanced by its enemies: wandering skeleton knights, sorcerers and even a giant face that changes from a goddess to a sinister serpent.

Shining Force (Sega Genesis, 1 player, 800 Wii Points):

In ages long forgotten, Light fought Darkness for control of the world. Finally, the Ancients overpowered the evil ruler of the dark forces known as Dark Dragon and cast him into another dimension, though he vowed to return in 1,000 years. As time passed, all memory of Dark Dragon was buried, and the land of Rune enjoyed 10 centuries of peace. Yet, as promised, the dark ruler returned, along with hordes of evil creatures that ravaged the land. As chaos erupted, several strongholds of Good still held out, awaiting a hero who could wield the Powers of Light.
