Nintendo Life: When Xevious hit arcades in 1982 it represented one of the first vertical shoot 'em ups of its kind. Not only that, but the game introduced a second bombing mechanic to give it a little more flare. After seeing a handful of home releases, it sprang upon the NES system with a vengeance and once again showed that the 8-bit NES could bring home a faithful arcade port and shine while doing it. Now Namco is unleashing their classic shooter upon the Wii U Virtual Console, and the game still looks as faithful and arcade perfect as it did 30+ years ago.
