Ghosts ‘n’ Goblins, Exed Exes now available on Virtual Console

Capcom’s announced that old arcade hits Ghosts & Goblins and Exed Exes are now available from Nintendo’s Virtual Console on Wii.

Ghosts ‘n’ Goblins is “the smash arcade hit from 1985 as you help Arthur defeat hordes of monsters in his attempt to rescue the princess. The first (and possibly only) game in which taking a hit reduces you to your underwear.”

Exed Exes, meanwhile, is another arcade game where you “dodge bullets, collect fruit and go for high scores in the most furious sci-fi insectoid shoot ‘em up ever made.”

Both are available to buy now for 800 Wii points. Go nuts.

Only game that reduces you to your underwear? They obviously never played Ghouls and Ghosts. Or either Maximo game. :-)

I’m guessing these are the NES versions again rather than the arcade originals, right? Which is a bit rubbish, tbh.

Heh, I thought Exed Exes would be about hiring somebody to bump-off your ex-missus.
