SEGA Officially Confirms Master System for US Wii I know it has already been revealed that SEGA was going to bring its Master System, Game Gear and MK-III games to Nintendo’s Wii Virtual Console. But, SEGA was not sure if and when these old games would make their way to the Western market. However, now it has finally been confirmed for the US… and cheaper than expected.

Originally it was announced that February would be the month that the first SEGA Master System titles would début on the Virtual Console in , with Fist of the North Star and Zone being the first games on the service for 600 Wii Points and 500 Wii Points, respectively. The two US début titles, though, seem a better fit, with WonderBoy replac- ing Fist of the North Star. No release date has been set, but the games will only cost 400 Wii points. Ladies, Listen Up!

Sadly, they were to be very disappointed. Cruis’n USA is actually an arcade conversion, and you know you’ve got problems when the original coin-op was pretty dire to begin with.

Headdy‘s quest occurs when King Dark Demon comes in and ruins the peacefulness that takes place in North Town. He kidnaps all of the citizens and either turns them into evil drones or incinerates them. Headdy escapes and is on the quest to rid the world of evil. In Ristar, Ristar‘s galaxy is being invaded by Kaiser Greedy, a space Pirate who tries to take over the Valdi system. People of these 7 planets pray for a hero and the Star Goddess, Oruto, answers by sending one of her children, Ristar, to save them. While both are good in their premise, the nod has to go to Ristar. Headdy is going through this because he has a bone to pick with the Dark Demon, while Ristar was chosen to save the day by a Goddess.

Mr. Ebert’s definition of “art” Of course, since games contain art in the requires the audience to be spectators form of drawings, music, scripts, etc. When Roger Ebert said that he doesn’t rather than participants. I don’t know if then there is also an argument to the believe video games can be art, the he’s right about that but I certainly can’t contrary. If a machine is really the sum Internet went into an uproar. Bloggers say that he’s wrong. I don’t know if I’d of it’s parts then maybe Tetris is (1)(Art) flipped. Message boards howled. And consider Monopoly art. Are video games + (1)(Math) = eh? I really don’t know if choice three, four, and five letter words more like board games than they are like this works. Does Final Fantasy VII better were tossed at Mr. Ebert, who probably movies? Maybe, maybe not. Maybe it qualify as art than Space Invaders does never received said messages. And depends on the game. because the former has a script? So here I, an avid video game player/ Final Fantasy VII would be (2)(Art) + consumer since I was old enough to (1)(Math) = More Art Than Math? hold a controller, am writing an article Again, this sounds pretty stupid to try for a video game magazine in which I to weigh the value of art against math defend Roger Ebert and his com- in a video game when both are neces- ments. sary.

Would they be happier if into the “art” category. someone said “games are art but are I think the problem here is that the not science”?

But what if some- ing the “art” status is a kind of majesty one carves out something that looks that they so desire games to attain. like a chair? Is it still art or is it a chair? But I think even Mr. Ebert would grant But for me, all that shows is the video Can a chair be art? Someone had to me that video games at the very least game industry and general gaming public envision it and do the work to produce it. contain art. Someone had to draw up as a whole have an inferiority complex Why can’t a chair be art?
