Castlevania II: Simon's Quest Now Available On The Wii U Virtual Console
Castlevania is a series that has experimented with its formula trying out genres as diverse as puzzle and fighting games, but the NES sequel, Castelvania II: Simon's Quest, is still considered the series oddball. It is now available on Wii U's Virtual Console.
You can check out a trailer for recent Virtual Console addition below. Super Castlevania IV and the original Castlevania are also available on the Virtual Console. As per usual, the game is discounted if you owned the Wii Virtual Console version of the game.

Our Take
As always, I am happy to see more games coming to Wii U's Virtual Console. There are still a lot of missing games, though, which I've spoken about here.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
