Re: Wii Online and Virtual Console Discussion

Another rough week in my opinion atleast, if I had a gun to my head maybe I would get NES golf. PLEASE give us F-Zero X next week.

Re: Wii Online and Virtual Console Discussion

Another "free" VC week. NES Open Golf is alright, but I preferred the Gameboy version that had the overworld and stuff (more akin to the N64 game).

Here's hoping for some good stuff next week!

I would like to see UN squadron. I would play that game for hours and hours.

F-Zero X (N64, 1-4 players, 1000 Wii Points): The N64's hover-car racer pushed the series forward in the best way that was possible at the time -- it added a prominent "X" to the title. It wasn't until later that we learned that adding a "GX" was the ultimate masterstroke.

Street Fighter II Turbo Edition: Hyper Fighting (SNES, 1-2 players, 800 Wii Points): With mention of both the words "Turbo" and "Hyper" in the title, it becomes clear that this game is indeed a bit faster than The World Warriors. Enjoy it before those fancy HD characters start punching your eyeballs.

China Warrior (TurboGrafx-16, 1 player, 600 Wii Points): A side-scrolling action game depicting either gaming's most fragile hero ever, or just some tough guy in China.

Finally, we get F-Zero, now if only I could actually connect to the wii shop. My internet works fine all morning and 10 minutes before they update the shop my router craps out.

Re: Wii Online and Virtual Console Discussion

I just bought a Wii for my girlfriend. I'm out of town on business so I can't look at the box, but is there enough memory to DL virtual games right out of the box or do you need to buy a Memory Card?

Sweet! Talk about pure gaming bliss.

You have a lot of memory to DL games. I believe it's 512mb of memory but I could be mistaken.

No need to buy an SD card just yet.

• Super Mario Bros. 2 (NES, 1 player, 500 Wii Points): Somewhere, Doki Doki Panic is having a pull off his half-empty fifth of Wild Turkey, hopeful that this may be the last time he has to be slapped in the face by the release of Super Mario Bros. 2 and reminded of what could have been.

• Ecco: The Tides of Time (Sega Genesis, 1 player, 800 Wii Points): This Ecco the Dolphin sequel is lucky that it's slipping in with SMB 2, because the only item that could make sound waves look like a good weapon are throwable onions.

• Dragon Spirit (TurboGrafx16, 1 player, 600 Wii Points): Completely ruining the whole "lame weapons" motif is Dragon Spirit, a vertical-scrolling shooter where your weapon is, well, a dragon. Unfortunately, having a dragon as your weapon makes vegetables and sound waves look like ... well, sound waves and vegetables

yeah, like TheMatrix31 says, there is plenty of room. I probably have game saves for 8 or so Wii games plus about 12 downloaded VC games and I still have plenty of blocks left.

I'll be getting SMB2 tonight, just waiting on SMB3 and Paper Mario and they will have covered most of the Mario bases I'm interested in. I guess there is Yoshii's Island too.
