Earthworm Jim and others going Virtual Console

Category: Wii, Posted: 04/21/2008 at 10:50PM CDT by John Meyer, Staff Writer

Following reports that Interplay will be reviving some of their old franchises, we now hear word that the company will be putting up their old Sega Genesis classics up on the Wii Virtual Console later this year.

The games Interplay will be bringing to the Virtual Console are Boogerman, Clay Fighter, and best of all, Earthworm Jim and its sequel.

Of course, the most exciting news for most of you (and for me) is the confirmation of Earthworm Jim coming to the VC. EJ and its sequel are two of the best games to ever grace the Sega Genesis and I'm elated to hear that the two games will be easily accessible on my Wii.

I think it means Way To Be. Although I'm not sure what he means by "way to be XBLA."
