By the way, if you have a gaming PC I recommend trying out Dolphin to play the Wii games. Xenoblade Chronicles has an HD texture pack that makes the experience even more awesome, and Skyward Sword looks gorgeous in HD. Both games run at full speed with no glitches  if you have an i5  or i7 that is > 3.5 Ghz. 


Wow. Just wow. So I guess this is actually THE version to play? Better than either Wii or N3DS?

If you have the capabilities then, yes, it is the version to play. I originally played the game on my Wii for my first two play throughs. This third playthrough I played half-way on Wii and then switched to Dolphin when I got my PC built. I'm trying to do a 100% completion run this time and the game looks great at 1080p 4xSSAA with texture packs. There is not a single jaggy in sight and it runs at a locked 30fps with few drops after the shader cache builds up (the first time you start a game in Dolphin shaders need to be built - each time you start the game afterwards performance smooths out, having an SSD helps with this as well.)
