UK Virtual Console gets Donkey Kong Country

The UK version of the Wii Virtual Console has just gone live, and we've discovered a few significant changes from the its North American counter-part.

Apart from the puzzling swap of all of the game graphics, the UK version of Nintendo's download service has one title that those chaps across the pond can't get their hands on; the excellent SNES platformer Donkey Kong Country.

However it's not all good news for UK Wii owners; the recent US update to the Virtual console which added Donkey Kong Jr., Victory Run and Mega Drive titles Ristar and Columns - with the exception of Victory Run - doesn't seem to have made its way to our shores.

Nintendo UK was unfortunately available to comment on when we'll be getting these currently US-only Virtual Console titles, but we'll be sure to let you know when they get back to us. (Columns, Ristar, Victory Run, Wii)
