Virtual Console Monday - Operation Wolf and Columns III

Two games hitting the Virtual Console this week:
Operation Wolf - NES - 1989 - 500 points
A group of desperate terrorists is keeping hostages in their jungle fortress. As a member of the elite tactical squad Operation Wolf, you must invade their hideout, destroy their operations, and get the hostages out alive!
Columns III: Revenge of Columns - Genesis - 1994 - 800 points
This single-player or multiplayer experience expands upon the game play of the original two Columns titles giving players some extra attacks to spring on opponents.
I absolutely loved playing Operation Wolf in the arcades. Unfortunately, the NES version was rather disappointing. I never finished Columns or Columns II, so I’m not sure if I can follow the storyline in Columns III. What are you picking up this week?

Wow, I’m not usually one to complain about VC releases but the last couple weeks have been disapointing. Where the heck is Mario RPG?

whoa whoa whoa…
A light gun game for VC? Any chance in hell this supports the Wii remote for aiming?

I remember Operation Wolf. If I thinking of the right game Operation Wolf is almost a FPS.
