With Virtual Console’s releases still slow as molasses in January, Majesco brings us a far more palatable method of playing classic arcade games on Wii: The company said today that it will release Data East Arcade Classics in early 2010 for Wii, collecting 15 arcade games for $20.
Said games include the two *Burger Time *games, the wonderful Caveman Ninja (right), Bad Dudes vs. Dragon Ninja, Magical Drop III, etc.
Meanwhile, Sega released the arcade version of Altered Beast on the Virtual Console Arcade download service for the mind-blowing, wholly inappropriate price of $10. Man, even Nintendo didn’t have the chutzpah to charge ten bucks for anything below Nintendo 64 titles, which, at least, have been worth the money.
