The item critical hit rates were off so the higher number the weapon was the better the critical hit rate was instead of things like the katana having a high crit like it was supposed to( pretty much when in the story you get it the higher the critical hit rate), and some spells didn't work at all.

I think we'll get Mother at some point, it definately won't be called EB0 though

Why wouldn't you like to see a system added to the VC? Maybe it could be NA only.

Mother, or EarthBound Zero.
Afterall, it was translated for US release, so us Europeans will probably get it in one of the Hanabi Festivals eventually.

Well, you didn't say it specifically, but you did say that you hoped that you didn't want the Sega Saturn to come to the VC, and if they didn't that would make those of us who did want it to come suffer.

How about Golf? Not Mario Golf, but just NES Golf. Anyone hear if that will be coming to VC? We used to play the heck out of that game.

It'd be better to wait until international MSX upload (if it comes), because that version of the game is undeniably better.

Mario Golf (N64) is out now, so I presume you'll have to wait a bit longer,
or buy Animal Crossing on Gamecube, where Golf (NES) is included.
But I'm wondering, all of those old Nintendo sports games are out
(Tennis, Baseball, Soccer, Volleyball, Ice Hockey, Excitebike, Punch-Out!!),
except this one.

Instead they've thrown out the much better Nintendo Open Tournament Golf.
Weird/nice decision to start with the better game, don't you think?


Oh well, I remember, there are still some sports games missing..
Pro Wrestling and Nintendo World Cup. And the Football game that's only out in the US.

Well since we got Castlevania 3, Mega Man 5 would be excellent.
Too bad the 2 FEs aren't going to happen, I want to use Jeigan

It was for me anyway. That game was more of my friend's childhood nemesis than mine, but still neither of us have beaten it. I may not be the best judge though because some games are hard for me when they shouldn't be, yet I can beat other stuff that is notoriously hard.

If it comes, I'll download it so I can see which this one will be.

Since Nintendo has expressed interest in translating Japan-only games, I'd like to see a translation and VC release of Kawa no Nushi Tsuri.

Nintendo actually doesn't translate the import games so I wouldn't be hoping for this game if I were you.

Then who has been doing the translations for the few imports available?

Not that big of a loss, really. I doubt anyone around here even knows of the game. I have the ROM myself.
