R-TYPE™
Original platform: SEGA Master System
Publisher: SEGA
Players: 1
ESRB Rating: E (Everyone) – Mild Fantasy Violence
Price: 500 Wii Points
Description: R-TYPE is a classic, side-scrolling arcade shoot-'em-up that was developed by Irem in 1987. It's the 22nd century, and you are humanity's last hope against the evil Bydo Empire. Your ship is called the R-9a "Arrowhead" and comes with a standard gun, but power-ups and upgrades are available in each mission. Navigate through eight challenging levels that will test even the best gamer's reflexes. The SEGA Master System version features an exclusive secret level not found in any other release.


-----------------------------------------------

My 2 cents: R-Type on SMS is actually a solid port, one of the first actually. Yet when the VC offers the superior TG16 edition it's easy to pass up. Just remember, cheaper is sometimes better, it's still one of the prettiest SMS games made.
Fighting Street from TG16 CD is either a hit or miss by today's standards. 800 points to spend on this game can be spent on finding Capcom Classics Vol 2 on PS2 or Xbox and/or PSP's Capcom Classics Remix. Which contain the same game.

* My Dolphin (T&S Ltd., 1 player, 500 Wii Points): Become a dolphin trainer and conduct live shows with the aquatic mammals in this game from T&S Ltd. And if you're dying to give your virtual dolphin all of the things an animal star deserves, you can spend your real money on in-game toys like balls and rings.
* Magnetis (Yullaby, 1 - 4 players, 500 Wii Points): This is a puzzle game where you must connect corresponding magnets to create explosions and not a game based on Magneto's little brother. The game includes co-operative and competitive modes for up to four players.
* Stop Stress: A Day of Fury (Abylight, 1 player, 800 Wii Points): I am Jack's sense of unresolved stress -- er, rather, players are in this game from Abylight. Pick up Jack's trusty baseball bat and "beat a path through traffic or at the office, and face off against incredible hallucinations."

* Street Fighter Alpha 2 (SNES, 1 - 2 players, 800 Wii Points): Back when the Saturn and the PlayStation were the new hotness on the console scene, the SNES was beginning to conclude its time on store shelves -- but that didn't stop it from getting its own version of Street Fighter Alpha 2. While the best way to play this game was undoubtedly on Sega and Sony's consoles, the SNES port actually isn't that bad.
* Shinobi (VC Arcade, 1 player, 800 Wii Points): It feels weird to finally get Shinobi, considering the third game and first Sega Genesis title have been available for a while now. Still, it's nice to finally check out the Arcade game that started it all.

------------------------------------------------

Street Fighter Alpha 2 the SNES edition. Interesting port, but one of the oddest I will say. Shinobi Arcade is always a blast, but it's easily found on the Sega Genesis Collection games from PS2, PSP, 360, and PS3.
