    Re: Wii Online and Virtual Console Discussion

    Super Mario 3 has been my most played VC game of late. I still adore that game.

      I still can't find a Wii anywhere. Funny thing is, a month and half ago I saw them in every store I went too.

          I love the beginning of Double Dribble. We always used to make fun of that as kids. Sounds like "Vrubble Vribble"

            LOL, us too. Anyone have any good sliders for this game? I found it WAY too easy to hit 3PTer's on the default settings...

                  Any help on what I need to get? I never followed the WII stuff because I never thought I would get one. I have no idea about getting online with it, what the difference is between the Wii Remote or a Will Nunchuck. Do I need two of each for two player games or what? Do I need a charger?

                  I am lost...

                    I recommend you have at least two nunchucks. Like for Wii Sports boxing, you can only play that two player if you have two nunchucks. Most of the party games you only need the wiimote, but it's still good to have that second nunchuck. I think it's good to have 4 wiimotes but that's kinda expensive I guess, but if you are playing Mario Party or something like that with a lot of people, it's nice not having to pass the wiimote around. The charging station is nice because I think the speaker in the wiimote drains the batteries pretty fast if you play a lot. Get the Nyco charging station ($24.99), it will charge two remotes at a time.

                    To get online, the Wii connects wirelessly to your home network. I believe if you don't have a wireless network you have to buy some kind of adapter that lets you plug in an ethernet cable. To get VC games, you have to go online with the Wii and go to the Shop Channel (you should see it on the main Wii menu). From there you can "Add Points" where you enter a credit card to buy some Wii Points that are used to buy VC games. It's 1 point = $1 but you have to buy them in increments of like $10, $20, or $30, something like that.

                      Re: Wii Online and Virtual Console Discussion

                      Uhhh, yeah

                      • Eternal Champions (Sega Genesis, 1-2 players, 800 Wii Points): We have a lot of happy childhood memories that involve this 2D, not-in-any-way-a-Mortal-Kombat-rip-off-(wink) fighter, and we'd bet that you do too. Now does that mean it's a good game, or even fun to play? We have absolutely no idea. It's nostalgia roulette, and it's only going to cost you $8 to play.
                      • Zanac (NES, 1 player, 500 Wii Points): In Nintendo's description of vertically scrolling shooter Zanac, the most prominent feature advertised is that the game's difficulty adjusts in real-time to how well you play. It sort of feels like a used car salesman trying to sell you a Chevette by telling you it has "luxuriously wide cup holders." Which is to say it's worrisome. That said, it does have some pretty killer music.
                      • The Dynastic Hero (TurboGrafx16 CD-ROM, 1 player, 800 Wii Points): The Dynastic Hero is an action RPG that has its lead roles filled by insects (finally). It's basically Wonder Boy in Monster World (if that means anything to you) with different characters inserted. Maybe a commenter will be able to share their thoughts on the game. But what we can tell you is that the music is fantastic.

                            dont hate cause you sucked at it

                            I remember having my genesis over in the dorm room and people would come over to play. Well, they would actually want to play SFII but they would be forced to play eternal champions; some of them actually got good at it

                            Then when they all went home i would play my SFII.


                            MWUAHAHAHHAHAHAH!

                                BEST DAY EVER!
                                Pokémon Snap (Nintendo 64, 1 player, 1,000 Wii Points): We've long been morally opposed to the whole Pokemon craze. We just can't condone beating animals senseless, locking them in prisons that are 1/10 their size and then forcing them to repeat the cycle of violence. We guess we're OK with Pokemon Snap though, which asks only that you take pictures of the little critters. Also, remember that this version has new Wii features.

                                Baseball Stars 2 (NEOGEO, 1-2 players, 900 Wii Points): We're not familiar with Baseball Stars 2, but everything we've read about the game appears to be pretty positive. We only wish the Wii functionality could have trickled down here for all the big-screen TV-smashing action that we crave.

                                Ghosts'n Goblins (NES, 1-2 players, 500 Wii Points): Ghosts'n Goblins is the kind of difficult that other difficult games tell their children about to scare them into behaving. It's a classic, sure, but it's also enough to make you put your fist through a wall. We're sure it's fun if you're really good at it but let's be honest ... you aren't, are you?
