Shockman Hits the Wii Virtual Console!

Hudson has released the action/platformer "Shockman" onto the Wii Virtual Console today. While the game feels a lot like a simple Mega Man clone, the addition of the shooter levels adds a nice touch to an already enjoyable title. If you can appreciate an action game without a lot of bells and whistles, this might be one you'll want to check out. Don't forget to click on the box art to visit the full review at Virtual Turbo.

It would have been better as a full-on Mega Man clone where you could pick your levels instead of always having to start from scratch. This one was way too straight forward and also had kinda hard / cheap enemy AI. Along with Falcon, it remains one of my least satisfying HuCards. I wish I could have tried the third one in the series though, to see if they got it right.
