SEGA has officially announced that the next Nintendo Switch SEGA AGES titles, Virtua Racing and Wonder Boy: Monster Land, are due to hit the Nintendo eShop on June 27. Virtua Racing promises improved framerate, greater draw distance, online matchmaking, leaderboards, a new replay mode and up to 8-player local multiplayer.
Wonder Boy: Monster Land will feature the ability to restart after a game over with the same gear, as well as three new challenge modes, online leaderboards, replay function and a “Money Hungry Mode”. The “Money Hungry Mode” replicates a bug from the original game that allows players to increase the value of hidden gold by shaking the joystick back and forth.
The games will retail for $7.99 each. Will you be picking up one or both? Which one are you most excited for? Sound off in the comments below!
Day 1 for Virtua Racing. I’ll probably pass on Wonder Boy
Same here. I skipped Virtua Racing on the Saturn, but this port looks golden. It looks like a really cool time capsule of a forgotten era. Now I kind of hope they port the arcade version of Virtua Fighter, cause I need more flat-shaded polygons in my life.
