Japan gets a varied set of games for its Virtual Console update Tuesday, with each game representing different genres. For me, anyway, there's not really any game out of these four that I'm looking forward to, although some of these may be interesting.

The first game is Nekketsu Koha Kunio-kun for the Famicom, better known outside Japan as Renegade. From what I hear, even though it is a Kunio-kun game, the quality isn't up to par. Its impact is what it spawned: most notably, River City Ransom.



Next up is Super Gussun Oyoyo for the Super Famicom. It is a Lemmings-type game, where you direct characters to a goal with falling blocks. Just see the video for more.



Third up is Bomberman Panic Bomber for the PC Engine. It is a vs.-mode type puzzle game, where the goal is to make the opponent's side fill up with blocks. There are elements signature of the Bomberman series as gameplay elements.



The last game is Mr. HELI no Daibouken (literally, Mr. Heli's Great Adventure), known as Battle Chopper outside of Japan, for the PC Engine. It is a horizontal scrolling shoot-em-up.
