I would download this on the Wii U but since Nintendo only ties downloads to consoles and not accounts I'll just download this to my Xbox 360 instead. Too bad for you Nintendo

That's actually good news for me. I've used all 3 files in Super Mario World and Zelda Link to the Past but don't want to erase a file to start a new game. Now I can have 3 more files to play with for $1.50 more.

The real reason this game isn't coming to Wii U: Samus is jealous of all the attention Lara has been getting from male gamers so she bribed the developers to not let it come to the Wii U. That way she can have all the male Nintendo gamers to herself. Samus did the same to Joanna Dark by convincing Microsoft to buy Rareware from Nintendo.

As long as they release Gamecube games on Wii U VC outside of Japan I can wait for these...

I think if the only way to get good VC releases on a regular basis is for Reggie to resign. No, seriously, I mean it...

No Game Boy games again?! Sigh!

It's only sleeping? WAKE UP!!! You've overslept!

It's only sleeping? WAKE UP!!! You've overslept!

Reggie should give all of his bonus to the president of Nintendo of Australia for not being good.

OMG I remember renting this game back in the day and used the infinite energy cheat on Game Genie when I started not knowing that I am supposed to die in the first boss battle. I shot at the boss a million times and was thinking to myself "why won't this thing die?!" and hated this game because of it. Later I found out that I was meant to die in the first boss that was why I couldn't kill it.

We should get Obama to get the international community to classify US as part of Europe instead of NA so we can get these good stuff released here too?

@Blizzaga
No, unless it's also available individually considering that most of us already have the Wii.

Why do people think this will be announced for NA this coming Monday? Is there something going on Monday?

You suck NOA! Where's Super Mario All-Stars for Wii? I don't want to just settle with the hand-me down 8 bit versions of SMB games with no save slots.

I want a European Wii so I can download these VC games!

"Nintendo doesn't care aboit non-asian people. Seeing all the stuff we've missed out on over the years it really makes me wonder why I still support them."

I don't see them releasing a lot of Nintendo games in China, Vietnam, Cambodia, and the Philippines.

Come on, need a release in the US and EU! Nintendo, if you are reading this, you know what to do.

When I first read the title, I thought that the original "Breath of Fire" is being released on the VC for Super Famicom for Japan.

Where's Yoshi's Island?

If he wanted to sell modified Wiis, just fly a few hundred miles west to China, where piracy is pretty much a standard practice and his business would grow ten fold.

EU needs FFIV that NA has and NA needs Super Mario Picross that EU has.

Nothing for me this week.

Back to one VC game again. But at least we got Pilotwings. Let's hope FFIV comes out soon.

When I saw "castles" in the title, I thought Castlevania Adventure Rebirth is out! Oh well.

Wow, Japanese VC is owning the US and EU VC right now.

When I saw Dragon Quest on the announcement title for a second there I thought the NES Dragon Quest is being released on the VC LOL!

Finally Final Fantasy comes to VC in NA! Thorium Wars also looks very good so I'll download both. Hopefully Smash Bros. and Final Fantasy 4 will come to VC soon.

Since Nintendo trademarked Super Mario Collection in August according to Famitsu, I thought maybe Super Mario All Stars would be on there. Maybe next month?

Nice to see Super Star Wars in EU. But they should hold off releasing it on the VC in Japan until we get some of their VC games that we've so far been denied.

I thought Final Fantasy V would be on the list considering there had been one released each month since May. Also no Nintendo 64 games, that probably means no N64 for EU in September as well though NA may get Super Smash Bros.

Nice VC game today! I hope Phantasy Star will come to NA soon so I can complete my collection.

"All three games will be released during August."

What makes you so sure Bass X0?

WOW! Super Star Wars was COMPLETELY unexpected! That more than makes up for the poor VC releases of the last two months since we can anticipate more treats from LucasArts like Rogue Squadron for N64.

Japanese are lucky to get FFIV on VC. They don't need another VC game in August as this game is sufficient to keep them occupied for a whole month.

God I miss those days when we had three VC games a week instead of one. Just watch, one of these days they'll change it to one VC game every other week.

I rather that NA get Super Mario Kart before Super Smash Bros on VC.

I'm still confused as to whether this game is a remake with new features (new multiplayer mode) or a brand new game with new levels.

According to gonintendo.com, the Koopa Kids will be in this one.

Is this a remake of DS New Super Mario Bros. with new features or a brand new game?

Do buy this game! The developers said that they'll bring over the previous 4 Starfy games that are released in Japan only if this sells well here.

Darn it! Why can't NOA tell us ahead of time what gets released?! I have to turn on my PC every Monday morning just to find out, and get disappointed about 80% of the time!

Now that they took care of emulation issues of Expansion Pak games for N64 and FX games for SNES, time to work on the Zapper and Super Scope VC emulation! Let's hope that they rate Duck Hunt and Yoshi's Safari next!

Where's Majora's Mask? They're probably holding it out for the 300th VC game. Stop releasing only one VC game a week to get to number 300 faster!

There's another big VC game that Europe has for a year and half now that the North American VC still has not gotten, Super Mario Picross!

After the 300th VC game for NA, with its one VC game per week release, the 400th game won't be here until 2011.

What about Cruis 'n World, Exotica, and the Rush series? They are awesome arcade games.

Oh shoot, if no N64 game comes out on US and EU VC by next month, then we're two N64 games behind Japan. I don't care too much for the original Smash Bros., but please bring Majora's Mask to both regions soon!

North American gamers can play Super Punch Out on the Wii right now. Just buy Fight Night Round 2 for the Gamecube and it includes Super Punch Out and you can play it on the Wii. That way we don't need to wait for it to hit NA VC.

Please Nintendo consider releasing Super Scope SNES games so I can hope for a chance that Yoshi's Safari will come to the VC.
