Samurai Shodown Hits Wii Virtual Console
The Wii Virtual Console is home to a few great fighting games, even if the Nintendo Wii itself is terribly lacking in that department. If you’re tired of playing Street Fighter II over and over again, head on over to your Wii and buy some SNK-flavored swordplay in the form of Samurai Shodown.

Strangely, the trailer above lacks sound, but the one below will satisfy your aural […]
