In case you might have missed a thread on the forums a few months back regarding Sega Master System games coming to Virtual Console, then you should definitely get yourself acquainted with this fact, as the launch titles have been disclosed and priced by Sega of America today.
Initial games available at launch will be Wonder Boy and Fantasy Zone. Wonder Boy is essentially a basic action game in which a young hero named "Tom-Tom" must rescue his girlfriend Tanya from an evil monster. Fantasy Zone is a side-scrolling shooter in which the player has to blast through levels and take down enemy bosses in each stage. Sounds quite generic to me.
Games will be priced at a very reasonable 400 Wii Points each. There has been no announcement regarding the future appearance of Sega Game Gear games on Virtual Console, although as they would be most likely priced at a lower price in relation to Master System, a release of such is looking doubtful.
I owned a master system and my big complaint about this news is that the Genesis had many of the same games as the master system, but they were more enhanced and looked better. So I'm not sure how big of an improvement this will be, but at least there's more games coming out.

Yeah, but of course they could always release both versions of the game. Then you'd have the choice of spending 400 wii points or 800.
Wonder boy!
I remember playing countless.. minutes.. with that game!
But as a kid who's attention span is meer minutes, It felt like hours, but i know for fact my parents wouldn't have let me play more then 30 mins a day.. So yeah.. It felt long..
In other words.. Wonder Boy is awesome.
Maybe I can finally beat the game now...
