Hanabi Festival Returns for Virtual Console Friday

Nintendo has kicked off the Hanabi Festival for another year. For those who missed it last year, this involved a couple of weeks of import only games released on the Virtual Console with one even being a limited release. No Nintendo hasn’t announced if this years is a multi-week affair, but at least we get three good games this week. Gradius II: Gofer no Yabou (Ambition of Gofer) for the Turbografx-CD is the first game off the bat and is 900 points (and thankfully not the rubbish NES version). More inside Next up is Final Soldier, the only non-spinoff games in the Star Solider series to never be released outside of Japan, and it comes in at 700 points. Lastly is the US version of Columns III, which likewise as at the inflated price of 900 Wii Points. Discuss this weeks releases here.
