I’ve heard a lot of people suggest that Sega ought to bring out the VC games as well. Which is a fantastic idea. Playing Dead or Alive II in the arcades is a total rip off, so this makes for a better alternative.

@ Veilknight

that would be great.

But I think Sega is being cheap not porting HotD1 mostly likely due to it’s age and hardware where it ran Saturn/Sega Model2c… and I think they’re being cheap too in not adapting HotD4, but that one they could sell as standalone, I guess.

As for this game… needs a budget price and at least a 16:9 mode.

Don’t quote me on this, but if I remember correctly the nunchuk is being used to reload the gun. (i.e. you shake the nunchuk to reload)

Now all Sega needs to do is confirm a Virtua Cop compilation for the Wii including the third installment in the series and we’re set. Seriously, I think it’s been long enough that Virtua Cop 3 has remained a arcade exclusive, the title’s long overdue for a port to a home console.

Unfortunately, thanks to the decline of arcades in North America, despite the arcade scene still going strong in Japan, there’s no access to Virtua Cop 3 for me, so I’d finally love to get a chance to play this light gun shooter after all these years have flown past since its release.
