    Probably. That VC game was the result of a deal between Ubisoft and Konami, so if it expired, there would have to be a new deal made.

    That's too bad, but the loss of one game only makes it one game worse.

    That game was brutal. I was such a huge TMNT fan when I was a kid and was thrilled to get that game...until I played it. I was like "What in the world is this?"

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    By weakness and defeat,
    He won the meed and crown;
    Trod all our foes beneath His feet
    By being trodden down.
    He Satan's power laid low;
    Made sin, He sin o'er threw;
    Bowed to the grave, destroyed it so,
    And death, by dying, slew.

    Hopefully I won't sound totally nuts, but I've gotten pretty angry over some of the classics disappearing both on Wii's Virtual Console and Xbox 360's arcade section. It really does feel like you've gotta hurry up and grab these games before they're gone. If you can't tell by my signature, I happen to like this stuff and put a great deal of stock into it. Not everyone can buy the original games and consoles. I spend more on classic games some months than my mortgage lol..... uh....that's sad actually... **sits in a corner alone**

    Of course

    I do not pick up a lot of games on the Virtual Console but if I had known this one was on it I would have given it a shot again to see if I could make it further than I did when I was a kid.

    Honestly, that game blows. Still, I don't like the idea of any game being taken off of VC.

    thats true. That game sucks but I hope that nintendo doesn't think we're going to be okay with the removal of games from the VC.
