This week's virtual console releases are sure to get fans of classic gaming riled up. On the NES it's the return of Ryu and on the Genesis side of things it's the return of a RPG classic. Which sequel catches your eye?

Ninja Gaiden III: The Ancient Ship of Doom (NES,500 Wii Points)
Ryu return in the final saga of Ninja Gaiden on the NES. This time Ryu must prove his innocence. Face off against BIO-NOIDs and avoid ambushes in your quest for justice.Ryu now has the ability to grab on to horizontal surfaces, a reduced falling speed, and new jumping maneuvers. Help Ryu defeat the forces of evil once more and solve the mystery of behind FBI agent Irene Lew's death to bring this Ninja Gaiden chapter to a close.

Phantasy Star II: (Sega Genesis, 800 Wii Points)
Phantasy Star II is a RPG featuring an epic story line and turn-based battles. Play as Rolf, Nei, Rudo or several other characters traversing the Algol star system fighting against the evil Dark Force. Upgrade your characters, select their weapons and armor, and challenge evil in many missions as you find the right combination of characters for completion. Experience one of the best rpgs of its time in Phantasy Star II.

I would consider downloading Ninja Gaiden III. That's one game I've never had the pleasure of playing.
