Virtual Console Roundup

Via Eurogamer:

StarTropics

"Dedicated retro adventurers might find enough to enjoy to justify a download, but for the vast majority there are other, better, offerings available."

Score: 5/10

Alien Storm

"It is, quite frankly, a bland, flavourless slog. Amusement comes only from goofy animations – such as the robot character, Scooter, and his self-destruct smart bomb move – but that’s no reason to waste 800 points.

Score: 2/10
