Impossible Mission will be the first non-Virtual Console title to be downloadable from the Wii Shop Channel. Confirmation came from the pages of the official Nintendo Power magazine, backed up by Nintendo UK. The remake of the classic Commodore 64 game was announced earlier this year. System 3 will be re-writing the game for today's technology, but will include a retro mode if you wish to lose yourself in gaming's glorious past.
Old school videogames enthusiasts are in for another treat, as System 3 announced today that it will be re-launching the classic Epyx Commodore 64 title, Impossible Mission. The game will feature several special enhancements and will be released for the DS, PSP, PS2 and Wii.
According to reports in the official U.S. Nintendo Power magazine, several Commodore 64 games may be emulated on the Wii's virtual console. Although no specific titles were named, the only indications so far are of titles from now defunct U.S. developer Epyx, maker of the likes of Impossible Mission and the Summer/Winter/World/California Games series. Best known for their work on the 8-bit Commodore 64 home computer, Epyx also designed the prototype Lynx console for Atari as well as several of its games.
