Just redeemed Super Metroid with my coins, so that would be $1.5 not a bad price.


That game will be $0.30 in a month on Wii U.


Really, when? But that's with(out) the Wii Virtual Console transfer?

I don't think I'll upgrade any titles, but I'll definitely buy new ones. Especially Earthbound.

The one thing I want to do is be able to play zelda II again. Hopefully I will be able to once I can upgrade it.

Have you not seen any of the 30-day $0.30 promotions? :/

It's completely independent to what you had/have on Wii.

Hm... not exactly a huge list. Most games have either been part of the ¢30 promotion, will be part of the ¢30 promotion in the future or aren't exciting at all.

Also, Kirby is just totally over-represented. 4 Kirby games at launch? Seriously? I know he's Iwata's stepchild but come one!

I keep seeing people complain about the content quantity... but its like 15games day one and if WiiVC pushed out 3-5 as often as it did, I'm positive WiiUVC will push out a lot more, more often considering its mostly just testing at this point.

I refuse to transfer all of my VC games to my WiiU, as I like having a little retro box I can easily connect to any TV that's independent of my HD console.  I'll just re-buy my very favorites on the WiiU VC that I want for off-TV play and restore points.

In addition to my thirty cent Punch Out and Super Metroid, I'll be re-buying Super Mario World (!) and Super Mario 2.  I'll probably get Earthbound as well.

Also Superchunk, just to let you know for the sake of correctness in your Japan section, it's Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts not Super Ghosts 'n Goblins.

It's not the size of the list per se it's just that most games either have been or will be promoted so there's no incentive to download them now. If they can get 3-5 games out per week that would be great! I'd be totally happy with that. But I'm afraid we'll get a very slow trickle (like 1-2 games per week) instead so I'm not getting hyped yet.
