Virtual Console Games

I love my Wii games, but honestly, the VC is my favorite thing about the Wii. I've been able to get ahold of some classic games for a lot less than an original cartridge would cost, and some games that I wouldn't have gotten at all without the VC. I have sixteen of 'em, and here they are, listed with their system and rated.

Super Mario 64 (N64) - 9/10
Star Fox 64 (N64) - 8/10
Paper Mario (N64) - 9/10
Sin & Punishment (N64) - 7/10
Donkey Kong Country (SNES) - 8/10
Donkey Kong Country 3 (SNES) - 7.5/10
R-Type III (SNES) - 5/10
Super Ghouls & Ghosts (SNES) - 6.5/10
Gunstar Heroes (Genesis) - 9/10
Kirby's Adventure (NES) - 9/10
Kid Icarus (NES) - 7/10
Adventures of Lolo (NES) - 7/10
Startropics (NES) - haven't finished
Bonk's Revenge (TG-16) - 7.5/10
Soldier Blade (TG-16) - 7.5/10
Bomberman '93 (TG-16) - 7/10

So, what's your VC collection?
  • sodapop
    Excitebike (NES)- 10/10
    Tecmo Bowl (NES)- 9/10
    Mario Cart 64 (N64)- 8/10

    I want to get some more. Probably next up is going to be Mario 64, and/or some of the Zelda games.

    I'm debating which to buy. See, I also have an FC twin which plays my old NES and SNES games. I will still likely get a few games that you can't buy anywhere else and a few others i don't have or that are rare. The wii vc is a very nice feature, I'll definitely buy 007 and Perfect Dark when they come out on the VC.

    There are several good internet sources of reviews on the VC releases.

    I doubt 007 and Perfect Dark are coming to the VC, since they're owned by Rare.
