Super Smash Bros. Coming to Virtual Console in Japan

December 30, 2008 10:34 AM

Nintendo recently announced its upcoming titles for the Virtual Console in Japan, and amidst a number of boring games, one Nintendo 64 classic made the list: Super Smash Bros.

The original party-friendly fighter will make its way to the Japanese Virtual Console in January, carrying the slightly premium price of 1400 Wii Points ($14), according to Wiifanboy.

Though its Japanese release doesn't guarantee a US release for Smash Bros. anytime soon, it certainly increases the odds that we'll have it within a few months.

  I still care about it. 2008 didn't see much action, but there are still plenty of games that will make their way to the VC eventually. It's not like I don't have other games -- classic and modern -- to play in the meantime.
