Last Ninja 3 refunds on Virtual Console

If you forked over 500 Wii points for Last Ninja 3 on Wii's Virtual Console you may have been disappointed with a bug that caused the game to freeze after the very first level.

This error affects everyone the same way, and publishers Commodore are unable to fix it, apologetically offering refunds to everyone who bought the game.

Despite the best effort of the Commodore Gaming development team, the crash in Last Ninja 3 occurring at the end of Level 1 could not be resolved due to a technical problem. Unfortunately this game uses Commodore 64 hardware specific features that can not be emulated by our software.

We are truly sorry for any inconvenience caused by the defective software. We will reimburse the 500 Wii Points you spent to purchase the game.

In order to do so, we would kindly like to ask you to provide the following information:

Your Wii serial number - You can find it on the bottom of the console, marked as "Serial No:". The serial number begins with the letter L and ends with a number in a square.
Your contact email address.

Please send this information by email to wii@commodoregaming.com

You will receive reimbursement in form of a Wii Points code within ten business days. Please note that, based on your Wii serial number, your purchase of the game will be verified before reimbursement.

All's well that ends well? Just goes to show the level of testing that goes into these releases though. Wap wap wap-wap.
