Got space for more retro gaming fun? Three more join the lineup of classic video games of the Wii's Virtual Console: Double Dribble, Vegas Stakes, and Ecco Jr.
First comes Konami's 1986 classic sports video, Double Dribble. For those old enough to remember, it was originally made for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) and was the first full-court basketball video game. You get to choose from a number of teams (Boston, New York, Chicago, Los Angeles) and several different difficulty levels. Who can forget those slam dunk cutscenes?
HAL Laboratory's Vegas Stakes was originally made for the SNES and as you can probably tell from the name, it's a gambling sim. You're on a road trip to Las Vegas and of course, what better way to enjoy the road to Vegas other than win some cash? You'll get to play in various casinos, play different casino games (blackjack, slots, poker, craps, and roulette), and choose from four friends to help you out.
Those who played the original Ecco the Dolphin would be familiar with the gameplay of Sega's Ecco Jr. It features a dolphin who travels to the Deep Blue and completes tasks along the way. It's pretty much kid-oriented so it's perfect for your little monsters tots to go on an underwater adventure. Two other playable characters make an appearance alongside Ecco: Tara (a baby orca), and Kitnee (a young Atlantic dolphin).
Anyway, check them out on your Wii's Virtual Console list. Double Dribble costs 500 Wii Points while Vegas Stakes and Ecco Jr. both costs 800 Wii Points.
