This is great news. I have wanted a Neo Geo system for a long frickin time. I would love to play these games on the Virtual Console. Hell, I would even pay more than $10 for these games.

The article also states that the Virtual Console will start supporting MSX computer games. There isn't a date on when this will happen outside of Japan, but the article makes it seem like its gonna happen.

Any of the Samurai Showdowns were fun. Plus, some of the shooters like Pulstar are really good. Back when Nintendo was king I used to drool about one day owning a Neo Geo to play real arcade games at home with such amazing graphics. If you like 2D fighters, you'll love the games. If not there's some good beat 'em ups as well.

The Metal Slug games are the best, but its probably a better deal to buy the Metal Slug collection.

Steerforth...

King Of Fighters *anything*...buy it
Samurai Shodown *anything*...buy it
Metal Slug *anything*.....buy it

Those are the no-brainers.

I enjoy these alot on my Neo-Geo CD, I would recommend buying them if they become available on Wii..........
