Sega Master System coming to the Virtual Console

Sega Master SystemSega recently announced that games from the Sega Master System will soon be added to the Virtual Console’s ever-growing library. This retro, 8-bit console was originally released alongside the Nintendo Entertainment System, but failed to find a strong following outside of Europe. Thanks to the Wii’s Virtual Console service, players around the world will soon be able to enjoy classic Master System titles that they might have missed out on.

The Master System will debut on the Japanese Virtual Console this February with Fist of the North Star (600 Wii points) and Fantasy Zone (500 Wii points.) Although no official date has been announced, Master System titles will be available to download on North American and European Wii consoles sometime in the near future.
