Terry Bogard is all up in your Shop Channel: First NeoGeo titles revealed for VC photo

As previously reported, NeoGeo titles will be hitting the Wii's Virtual Console. Today, SNK Playmore has revealed that SNK's oldest fighting game, Fatal Fury, will be the first to make its way to the Wii Shop Channel. The title will soon be joined by other SNK fighting favorites, World Heroes and Art of Fighting.

Each title will cost gamers 900 Wii Points, or roughly $9. This is almost a $200 savings when compared to the average price of NeoGeo carts back when these titles were first released.

SNK's Fatal Fury Special on Xbox Live Arcade was recently met with an overwhelming "meh," and not only was it cheaper, it also had leaderboard support. Are any of these games worth getting excited about on the Virtual Console, or are we still waiting for those hard-to-find classics and obscure titles to come out of the woodwork?

SamSho is coming to the Wii in an Anthology form. I will get World Heroes and Magician Lord on Day One. Fatal Fury is a harder sell since I just bought it on PS2.

@Reaprar we have Street Fighter, but it's the cheapo SNES version.

So uh...when's Nintendo going to release a USB hard drive? I can't see you fitting many of these games on your Wii.

Samurai Showdown, League Bowling, and Windjammers are pretty much all I care about.

These specific three are meh, but the later entries in the series are all fantastic.

Most of the better titles, like Mark of the Wolves, are kind of large files. I wonder if they'll ever see the VC with the tiny amount of space afforded in the flash memory. I would seriously start buying SD cards if they did, but in many cases I'd rather wait for XBLA versions...

Gimme all the shooters (Blazing Star, Last Resort, etc.), Samurai Shodown, and Last Blade, and I'm hooked! (oh if they come out with a compilation for SS, I'm so there! (Used to own the original cartridge and system, sold it through guilt of spending so much money, now buying it back because of regret, oh the irony)
