According to Nintendo's official Japanese Virtual Console release list, Treasure's highly sought after Nintendo 64 title, Sin and Punishment, will be making its way to the service this September.
Because of cart rarity and sniveling Internet nerd buzz, this third-person action/adventure has been one of the most demanded Virtual Console releases to date. Only released in Japan and on China's iQue, the game also featured extensive English voice acting, making it a good candidate for one of the more interesting Virtual Console releases fans have seen.
Note that Sin and Punishment has only been confirmed for release in Japan. But to date, almost every (if not all) games that are released in one region have been released at all, so keep your fingers crossed this makes its way to a Virtual Console near you. But hey, if that doesn't happen, there's always the fan-made translation hack.

i'll buy it again so that maybe one
day we'll get ALIEN SOLDIER !!!
If this game doesn't make it to the EU VC i will be going on a rampage.
It was a fucking crime to not release this game outside of Japan the first time around.
Doing it again would be a piss take.
Holy shit... things have not aged well from that generation.
It's a treasure shooter though, so who the hell cares, it's gotta be worth playing.
Someone commented that it would be great if it was reprogrammed to use the Wii-mote . I think it would be perfect candidate for the wii-mote .
The question is can it be reprogrammed for the Wi-mote ?
And would anyone be bothered if they could ?
