Over 200 games now available on Virtual Console in Oz-March 2024
Mar 19, 2025 3:47 PM

  Nintendo Australia have hit another big milestone today, as it sees the number of games available on Virtual Console tick over the 200 mark in Australia. The two games released today were Wonderboy and Fantasy Zone, both from Sega Master System and worth 500 Wii points. These two games make it a total of 201 games currently available on the service.

  Fantasy Zone is a side-scrolling game, which sees players take control a space ship, as you blast your way through levels. In Wonderboy, you play as the games main protagonist--Tom-Tom the Wonderboy--as he fights his way through different levels, trying to rescue his girlfriend who has been kidnapped by monsters.

  This announcement puts Nintendo ahead of the competition as far as downloadable games go. Currently only 120 titles available to download on Xbox Live Arcade and less than 100 on the PlayStation Store.

  Nintendo Australia also listed the top 10 Virtual Console games downloaded by Australian Gamers. Not surprising, half of the list is comprised of various Mario games. The full lit of games can be seen below.

  1. Mario Kart 64

  2. Super Mario Bros.

  3. Super Mario 64

  4. Super Mario World

  5. Super Mario Bros. 3

  6. Donkey Kong Country

  7. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time

  8. Sonic The Hedgehog

  9. Paper Mario

  10. Lylat Wars

  At time of publication, Nintendo Australia are yet to respond to our emails in regards to how many games have been sold over VC since its release in 2006.
