Wii

[Archem]

No biggie, man! I would get it for GameCube too. I was lucky enough to get a Wii, though,  so I'm playing my new love.

Dude, its Wii.

How long lasting of a debate can it be?

Pwned.

I don't really want to make a new thread, so I'll just ask here:

What's the Virtual Console deally like? What games can you guys buy/download now (I'm aware the games are region locked but interested anyway)? What HAVE you downloaded now?

And how does the whole thing work?

[Apex]

The menu where you download the games isn't half badly set up, the music reminds of me of ol' Nooks store.

Haven't actually downloaded anything... For obvious reasons.

You need to buy Wii points to get VC games. A Wii point is worth one cent here in America. But an NES game costs 500 points, an SNES game costs 800 points, and an N64 game costs 1000 points. Unfortunately the only games worth getting right now are Sonic, F-Zero, and the first Legend of Zelda.

[WarxePB]

What are Genesis games priced at? About the same as SNES?

[DarkFlood2]

Yeah. Everything from the 'SNES era' is 800 points.

[Razor]

I'll be spending pocketloads on that little feature, I can tell you now!

[Archem]

And they sell cards at stores at about 2000 points each! No credit card required! But I'm too addicted to Call of Duty 3 and Twilight Princess right now, so I won't be bothered with that for a while... There aren't a boatload of games on it yet, but it's supposed to expand really big really soon.

[emiiru]

its a little cheaper to use the credit card, though. spot your folks the amount for the points, if you aren't old enough to have one, but then again. there's interest in credit cards. oh well. My roommie's playing mario 64 right now.

Mario 64 made the 3-d platformer how it is today. And it is an awesome game too. Too bad I traded my N64 in with it.

To stay on topic; I think that this download thing isn't that bad at all. I hope to try it out when I get a wii.

1pt=$0.01
500pts=$5.00
800pts=$8.00
1000pts=$10.00

Better than blockbuster I'd say, but can you keep the games?

Great googly moogly! He can do math!

[Drace]

I can still play Super Mario on my N64.

[MrMister]

k, I'm playing TP. The only game I've bought from that service was Altered Beast.
I pretty much own every other game on the service, so..

I made a Steve Irwin Mii, I'm funney.

[Apex]

I made a Bob Marley Wii, a Jesus Wii, a SantaClause Wii and a few other nifty ones.. Yeah... I sent mine in for the replacement though, so those are wiped, which is fine, it takes like a minute to redo each one, and I'd be more than happy to redo a few of them... Hehehe, Wiisus.

Anyways, I got the box to ship it in on friday, took the box to the ups store on saturday, they told me it would take till monday to begin shipping...

So, about... 2 ******* weeks...

GWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!
