Looks like Christmas does have some suprises for us! AeroFighters Assault Paradigm for the N64 and Donkey Kong Country for the SNES both come out on Christmas day! Anyone else excited for these titles? I know I am!

UPDATE: Since this was posted, the Wikipedia entries have been removed. I'm leaving this up as a rumor, but I'm personally hoping it's true. The only thing that catches me as odd is the games are being released in alphabetical order, according to that list. Does that seem strange to anyone else? Take this lightly until anything is confirmed.

I do hope this is true....

Oh. My. God.

Kid Icarus

Kirby's Adventure

Super Metroid

Super Mario RPG

Kirby's Dream Land 3

Kirby Super Star

Star Fox 64

AeroFighters Assault

Military Madness Hudson

Dungeon Explorer

R-Type Irem

8000 Wiipoints worth of games. That's $100 CND. Nintendo HATES my wallet.

[Crube]

Sweet Christmas!

[Akito]

Well, Military Madness is already out and that list has it set for January 15th. I'm not sure what that says about the accuracy of everything else though.

WHAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTt

It's out already?!?!

[Siendra]

Yay! Got Military Madness.

All these games on one system is a wet dream.

[Natsu]

They need to realease Saturday Night Slamasters on the Virtual Console.. that was a gem of a game.

[Alundra]

Kirby. Super. Star.

Enough said.

[J-Stop]

Anything on Wikiapedia that involves games that have yet to be released should always be taken with a grain of salt.

The only thing that can be taken seriously on the list is Toejam & Earl being set for next week, since it's been on SEGA's site for awhile now. Also, as Akito pointed out, Military Madness was already released this week. So the list is probably a mix of confirmed games with dates pulled out of a hat by someone.

With that said, I'd probably get Hagane, Tin Star, and R-Type. The rest are rather meh or I already own.

[The Diabetic]

Needs more Konami games.

[Anime Gee]

Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii! (^o^ )

I'll be getting a Wii sometime in January. ( ^_^)

[LeadingMan]

Well considering that it's been confirmed that Super Mario Bros will be released on Christmas and not in March that list is pretty much shit.

As per 1up.com

December 25

# Super Mario Bros: 500 points, NES

# Toejam & Earl: 800 points, SEGA Genesis

# R-Type: 800 points, Turbografx 16

# Street Figher II: The World Warrior 800 points, SNES

# Super Castlevania: 800 points, SNES

January 1

# Urban Champion: 500 points, NES

# Baseball: 500 points, NES

Considering that it had every single one of those wrong other than Toe Jam and Earl I would consider the entire list suspect.

Also, yay for Super Castlevania.

[Akito]

December 25enesis

# R-Type: 800 points, Turbografx 16

# Super Castlevania: 800 points, SNES

Fucking sweet. Those two games will definately take away my hard-earned dollars.

But is R-Type really going to cost 800 points or is that just a typo? All other TG16 games are priced at 600 points. I also hope that it's the full game and that they aren't planning on selling both halves of the game individually.

[Siendra]

SFII and Super CV are so downloaded next week.

[Galkar]

R-Type is definately going to be my first purchase.

Could be a typo. I checked 1ups page again and did some more searching. So far all I've been able to find are other people confirming the games but no prices updates.

[Akito]

Just checked. R-Type is indeed 800 points. Oh well, two extra dollars isn't going to kill us.

[Adam]

7400 wii points, ugh.

These VC games are very addictive, I didn't think i'd be getting as many as I am ...
