SNK Brings NeoGeo Games To Wii VC & Other Networks?
The possibility of NeoGeo games coming to the Wii’s virtual console has been reported here before, but today SNK sends out the official word that they have signed a deal with Nintendo to bring NeoGeo games to the virtual console.
But that’s not all. In an interview with IGN, President of SNK Playmore USA Ben Herman mentions the Wii virtual console isn’t the only place SNK is hoping NeoGeo games can be found.
“We will have content on Xbox Live Arcade as well, and we are talking with Sony about getting some of our properties onto their new Home network.”
Herman goes on to say SNK’s games are also going to be converted to take advantage of HDTV sets.
“We have things right now that we’re developing for the arcade that are in full high-def,” he claims. “Obviously that opens the possibility of bringing HD to the appropriate next-generation systems as well.”
One thing Herman did not clarify was the price points. He said for the Wii virtual console, gamers should expect a price point a little bit above SNES games ($8).
