Today’s Virtual Console Titles: July 30

What do this week’s three Virtual Console titles have in common? I wish we could tell you, but perhaps the only mutual association that I can pick out is that most of you guys haven’t heard of any of them:
- Drop Off (TurboGrafx16) - 600 Wii Points
- Dynamite Headdy (Sega Genesis) - 800 Wii Points
- Star Soldier (NES) - 500 Wii Points
So, which one should you buy? Well, a smart man might say “none,” but we might actually be missing out on an unheard of classic. So I reduced myself to tactics that haven’t been employed since the days pre-dating the internet. While Drop Off did have a skull on the cover, Dynamite Headdy wins the box-art contest, with too much awesome to pass up.
Still not convinced, check out the Wikipedia entry, or hit the jump to check out what the game is all about!
