The Wii Virtual Console Releases this week bring back some fond memories!
- Donkey Kong Country (SNES)
- The Legend of Kage (NES)
- New Adventure Island (TurboGraphx)
- Streets of Rage (Genesis)
Believe it or not, the game I played the most was Legend of Kage. Back then Ninja's and throwing stars were all the rage...
Here is the full press release:
WII-KLY UPDATE: FOUR NEW CLASSIC GAMES ANNOUNCED FOR WII SHOP CHANNEL
Feb. 19, 2007
Today Nintendo adds four new classic games to the popular Wii™ video game system's Wii Shop Channel. The games go live at 9 a.m. Pacific time. Nintendo adds new games to the channel every Monday. Wii owners with a high-speed Internet connection can redeem Wii Points™ to download the games. Wii Points can be purchased in the Wii Shop Channel or at retail outlets. This week's new games are:
Donkey Kong™ Country (Super NES®, 1-2 players, 800 Wii Points): Donkey Kong Country is an incredible island adventure, and the first game to feature Donkey Kong's sidekick, Diddy Kong®. Challenged by the crazed tribe of reptilian Kremlings, the Kongs face their cunning adversaries armed with lightning-quick moves, chest-pounding muscle and awesome aerial acrobatics. The duo also gets help from a host of friends and family, from Funky Kong™, Cranky Kong™ and Candy Kong™ to Rambi™ the rhino, Expresso™ the ostrich, Enguarde™ the swordfish, Squawks the parrot and Winky the frog. This game has more than 30 levels, plus dozens of hidden caves and secret rooms - more than 100 areas in all. Help the Kongs recover their stolen banana hoard!
The Legend of Kage (NES®, 1-2 players, 500 Wii Points): This classic ninja-action game first appeared in arcades in 1985 and became instantly popular. As the Iga ninja named "Kage," players embark on an action-packed quest as they move toward a magic castle where the Princess "Kiri" is held captive by "Yohshirou Yukikusa." To stay alive, players move vertically and horizontally through forest and castle environments and execute massive jumps, all the while using throwing-star knives and a sword to take down hordes of enemies.
New Adventure Island (TurboGrafx16, 1 player, 600 Wii Points): On peaceful Adventure Island, the islanders are celebrating the wedding of Master Higgins and Tina, the "Miss Island Queen." Suddenly, the celebration is interrupted by the appearance of Baron Bronsky and his henchmen, who kidnap Tina and the island children. Master Higgins must set out to rescue the children and his beloved Tina in this side-scrolling action game. Throw hatchets and boomerangs, hop on skateboards and guide Master Higgins safely to the goal in each area. New Adventure Island consists of seven exciting stages. Each stage is split into four areas, with a boss waiting at the end of the final area. Defeat all the bosses and release the kidnapped children. And waiting in the castle of the final stage - the wicked Baron Bronsky. Help Master Higgins defeat him and reclaim his bride.
Streets of Rage™ (Sega Genesis, 1-2 players, 800 Wii Points): The city was once a happy, peaceful place...until one day, a powerful secret criminal organization took over. This vicious syndicate soon had control of the government and even the police force. The city has become a center of violence and crime where no one is safe. Amid this turmoil, a group of determined young police officers has sworn to clean up the city. Among them are Adam Hunter, Axel Stone and Blaze Fielding. They've decided to put their lives on the line and take back their city through their special hand-to-hand combat abilities. They are willing to risk anything, even their lives, on the Streets of Rage.

![The Departed (Combo HD DVD and Standard DVD) [HD DVD]](http://ec3.images-amazon.com/images/P/B000M5AJQ8.01._AA240_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg)
This week there is only one HD DVD release, but it is better than all of the releases in the past month put together. The Departed is one of the best movies I have seen in the past year, and it has been nominated for 5 Academy Awards. This movie truly has all the makings of a classic, and I actually started to change my opinion of Leonardo DiCaprio for the better after seeing it. Mark Wahlberg, Alec Baldwin, Matt Damon, Jack Nicholson and Martin Sheen all put in incredible performances. I would have to say that I think Mark Wahlberg is the best, and gets some of the best lines. I definitely think that this movie has all of the potential to be a classic.
Even if you don't have HD DVD, go out and pick this movie up on DVD (or Blu-Ray). You will not regret it!

According to the insiders over at IGN, every copy of the intitial run of Crackdown disks will contain a Beta Invitation key/code.
Some were lead to believe that only pre-orders and very limited specially marked boxes contained access to the beta holy land. So to repeat, it appears that every Crackdown copy (from the intial production run) will contain a unique code on the disk to enter the Halo 3 Multiplayer Beta. Just don't expect to buy a copy a few weeks/months down the road after it is released and expect a Halo 3 Beta Key, as subsequent production runs will not contain a Halo Beta Golden ticket/access code.
The cheapest that we have found the Crackdown is $53.99 over at Buy.com. Submit a deal tip if you spot it for cheaper (known/respected retailers only please) and you will be entered in our FREE Xbox 360 Wireless Racing Wheel Contest!
Preorder it: Crackdown $53.99 (w/ Invite to Halo 3 Multiplayer Beta!)

Good morning, Class. We will start this week with a quick history lesson. <History Lesson> You know the big Hollywood sign, the one you've known ever since you were born? Well, when your grandpa was a kid, it used to say "Hollywoodland", and it was an advertisement for a housing subdivision in LA, circa 1923. What's that? You don't believe me? Here's confirmation from a bunch of anonymous internet "experts": http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hollywood_Sign. Class dismissed. </History Lesson>
This week there are two new HD-DVD's, and one of them is. . .you guessed it - Hollywoodland. A true story of murder and intrigue in Old Hollywood that is highly rated, I'm actually looking forward to watching this one. Ben Affleck was even nominated for a Golden Globe for his portrayal of murdered actor George Reeves (yes, the original Superman).
The other new movie this week Failure to Launch. This is one of those chick-flick movies that ain't so bad if your girlfriend/wife makes you watch it the first time, but trust me, you will definitely not want to go back to this well more than once. Still, you and I both know it never hurts to have some nice HD-DVD selections for the "ladiez" in your collection. On a side note, Terry Bradshaw puts in a decent acting performance, but c'mon, is it really necessary for him to have a "naked room"?
Below are the HD-DVD releases for the week, along with their IMDB rating and the number of votes recieved on IMDB so you can judge what "the people" think about the movie. Each movie below is linked to Amazon if you would like to add the movie to your personal collection at a good price.
HD-DVD Releases for February 6, 2007
Amazon - Failure to Launch - 5.6/10 (7,647 votes)
Amazon - Hollywoodland - 6.8/10 (2,849 votes)
[Thanks Knotty Monkey]
