Get ready to hit the craps table, emphasis on crap. Vegas Stakes (SNES) and Bonk 3: Bonk’s Big Adventure (TG16) hit the virtual console (EU) today. Here’s the good ol’ presser:

Make Your Millions As Virtual Console Whisks You Off To Vegas!

31st August, 2007- Practice your poker face this week as Virtual Console takes you on a trip to Las Vegas in the 1993 Super Nintendo classic Vegas Stakes™. Players get to enjoy the complete Vegas experience in this retro title, checking into a luxurious hotel where they can talk to friends and other guests before trying their hand at Blackjack, Slots, Roulette, Craps and Seven Card Stud. This game also includes a four player multiplayer mode where players compete for a $10 Million prize. Vegas Stakes™ is available now for 800 Wii Points.

For a totally different experience, this week sees the 1993 Turbografx title Bonk 3: Bonk’s Big Adventure making its way onto the Virtual Console. This quirky action game sees our hard-headed hero ‘bonking’ his way through seven colourful rounds based in the Dinosaur Kingdom. With eight hidden bonus stages to unlock and two-player multiplayer, this game will be a sure-fire hit. Bonk 3: Bonk’s Big Adventure is available now for 600 Wii Points.

These great games join the list of 128 classic titles already available for Virtual Console in Europe.

    MJ, where have you been looking? The new VCreleases are always announced on the Nintendo Europe site on a Friday, and usually get shown on the vc-reviews.com website a few hours before that…
