Thing is, they'd release the list as normal, then just throw any surprises anyway. Surely. Do we really get it before 11am Mondays normally?

 

Nintendo Life usually publishes the Nintendo Download articles Mondays before 11:00 BST. But I don't know when and where they read the press release.

Someone over at GoNintendo found this.

So it looks like Pilotwings could be arriving this week, at least in the US.

 

The US is still 2 games ahead of us (Kirby's Dreamland 3 & Megaman X - 3 if you count Balloon Fight, which has yet to be made available outside of the Famicom 30p promotion), so don't be surprised if we don't get it this week...

I wonder if the new version of Balloon Fight will perform as poorly as Super Metroid.

 

Nintendo, please bring the European VC library up to speed with the American! What could possibly be the reason NoE chooses not to?

So wait... Is it not 60hz? That terminology implies that it has been fixed since its initial 30p release, but it still claims to be an EU version...

 

Vegas Stakes is also an unusual choice. We're the first region to get it on Wii U, but I was expecting (and hoping) that they'd play catch up with at least the US...

why is it taking so damn long to release WiiU VC games? at this rate we will be going slower than Wii release rates! hell were almost doing PSN psone classic release rates right now (as in almost never in the first few years! in the EU anyway)

 

Dude this is nintendo. Drip, drip, drip seems to be the ethos.
