Relevant Consoles: : Wii
Thanks to a poster at GameFAQ's (which has posted valid numerous monthly Virtual Console release lists for the past couple months), we now know the expected Virtual Console releases for Japan, as well as a few titles for North America and Europe.

NES/Famicon: 2
- Tantei Jinguuji Saburo: Yokohama Minato Renzoku Satsujin Jiken
- Wagyan Land

SNES/Super Famicom: 2
- Seiken Densetsu 2 (Secret of Mana in North America)
- Space Invaders: The Original Game (Space Invaders in North America)

(Nintendo 64-- 1 game)
- Mario Golf 64

(Genesis/Megadrive-- 3 games)
- Sorcerian
- Forgotten Worlds
- Hokuto no Ken: Shin Seikimatsu Kyuseishu Densetsu (Last Battle in North America) --- will cost 700 Wii Points instead of 600, due to licensing costs. This is Japan's fourth licensed game.

(Turbografx-16/PC-Engine-- 4 games)
- The Ninja Warriors
- Nekketsu Koko Dodgeball Bu: PC Bangai Hen
- Final Blaster
- Mizubaku Adventure

Now for North America and Europe. North America gets Japan/Europe's latest TG-16 releases, and vice-versa for Europe. Europe should be getting their games on September 5th. The games are below...

North America
- Cho Aniki (Import/CD)
- Final Soldier (Import)

Europe
- Chase H.Q.
- Ys: Book 1 and 2

Pretty much the highlight of this month will be Secret of Mana, which was an unexpected surprise. This might bode well for other Squaresoft releases from the Super NES-era.

I've never understood why the hell they vary up the releases and titles so much on the Virtual Console based on region. The whole advantage of the internet is worldwide access.

Still, a solid lineup. I hope Secret of Mana gets over here soon. I've never had the chance to play it.

Secret of Mana's a good game, and I hope that I get a chance to play it again. It's sequel was sadly lacking and I felt that killed off what could have been a lovely franchise.
