    I wish Toe Jam & Earl would release soon.

      Virtual Console Adds Three
      Time to give your classic controller a workout.




      November 28, 2006 - Last night, Super Star Soldier, a Hudson Soft Turbografx-16 shooter, was made available for download on the Virtual Console. Two more titles were added this afternoon. Ecco the Dolphin and the original Golden Axe, classic Sega Genesis action games, are now available.

      Downloading Super Star Soldier costs 600 Wii Points (US$6). The Genesis titles run a bit higher at 800 Wii Points (US$8) each.

      While we love the idea of the Virtual Console, it should be noted that for 20 bucks you can get the Sega Genesis Collection on PS2. The recently released budget title includes 32 Sega games. Of course, you can't play these on your Wii. Therein lies the rub.

      New Virtual Console titles are expected each Monday with roughly 30 total titles being made available by the end of this year.

      ------------

      Damn! Where is Toe Jam.

          There has to be an option to have game-saves for the VC....otherwise there would be no point...right? I hope so.

            You're telling me you are going to need a save to beat Mario 64? Amatuer.....

                  all games, but especially older ones that maybe didn't have a save function in their initial release, like bonk, etc...

                    I read somewhere that when you stop playing it or turn it off it is paused until the next time you play that game again.

                      I just read this on a site:

                      "The game's normal save settings will work just fine.

                      And many games I've downloaded have save states

                      You just need to press the Home button and go back to the Wii menu "

                        That's pretty cool actually, but shouldn't you be able to beat the original Mario in less than 20 minutes?

                          Does anyone remember if the original Golden Axe was 1 player or 2 player?

                              I'm pretty sure it was 2 player.
