Wii owners who purchased Hudson's Virtual Console release of the 1990 turn based strategy game Military Madness should hit up the Wii Shop Channel today. They'll find an update to the game which will fix issues related to maps that required scrolling.

From the folks at Hudson:

On Feburary 9th 2007, Hudson released an updated version of "Military Madness". This update more closely resembles the original emulated version of the game which launched on the TurboGrafx-16 system. While it is not required to download this update, users who purchased the game before Feb 9th 2007, are entitled to upgrade their software free. All customers who purchase the game for the first time will automatically download the updated version. Go to the Wii Shop Channel:Account Activity. Click on Military Madness, then click on the Update Tab. You will be asked if you want to Download (0 points), click on Yes.

Don't worry, your current game saves won't be affected. As a suggestion, Wii owners sans Military Madness looking for a cheap, old school, hex-based strategy game should drop the Wii Points already. Nintendo? How about sending us updates via Wii messages for things like this. It would be greatly appreciated. Michael McWhertor
