There's Secret of Mana on the VC. It's a squaresoft action RPG with multiplayer. Definitely a classic.

Also, about Mario RPGs, they're all good. Super Mario RPG (SNES) and Paper Mario (N64) are both great choices.

On Wiiware I would recommend World of Goo. As some people said before, there's a demo available for pc for you to try it before taking the plunge.

The Paper Mario games, as I mentioned above are on the list now. Secret of Mana I know little about; is it worth playing even now?

As for World of Goo, I'm holding off on that just now (I'll get it for someone's birthday, methinks).


About Secret of Mana, I haven't bought it yet from the VC. I played it with an emulator not so long ago and It has aged pretty well. If you've seen chrono trigger before, it looks like that one, but the combat is kinda like zelda, but with menus for magic. There are 3 playable characters that can be played by real people after you get them through the story. The main character is a like warrior, then you get a girl with healing magic and the third one you get is a black mage... a tiny black mage :)

Here's the entry for it in wikipedia, it's got screen shots and concept art if you want to know how does the game look.
