Ahhh you mean Kirby. I can't find it or I cant find it cheaply. Kirby's epic yarn almost made me dive into Kirby games. I'm avoiding it as much as possible since I have too many games on my list that I have to buy and play first. I went PC gaming (thanks to Red Alert, Counterstrike and Fallout) after the SNES, MegaDrive and PS1 era and just came back to WiiU.
@ModestFan93 I know but I have a huge backlog and I will eventually get it. I almost bought it when I got a Wii U last November and almost bought it last weekend but my gut feeling said I will wait a bit. it paid off. I'm getting it next week before the promo ends, I just need to know what's next week's VC release.
Nintendo: please send us 2D model of Rayman for trophy. Ubisoft: here's a 3D model. Please make him playable! He needs more exposure! We won't scrw you again!
LOL I held on buying Earthbound. Now it's the time. I've never been into Kirby games so I won't be buying that one. Still no Castlevania 3 or the promised Megaman games.
@Samurai_Goroh Hey I'm on the hunt for Wii games on my WiiU since I didn't own a Wii. How would you rank Muramasa, No More Heroes 1&2, Red Steel 1&2 and Madworld? I might buy one or two from those list so I'd appreciate which you'll recommend more.
Wow, you guys are willing to shell out 50-60 bucks for WW HD and you think Wii Sports HD worth only 10-20 bucks? Sure they are different games/genre but come on. If I'm Nintendo, I wouldn't have bothered for a remake if it'll only cost that less. 40 seems right. And some of you even paid less.
I should have gotten only golf and bowling as they are the only games I/we play and enjoy. I should have trusted my instinct and didn't buy tennis. Now I ended up buying them all just because.
Good to know. I've never heard of the kid's corner until now although I saw a pic of Miyamoto with 2 kids on one article last June.
Video games were meant for kids/teens in the first place as far as I remember. Now most game publishers/developers are catering on teens/adults. I'm glad Nintendo is still doing their thing.
I couldn't decide between the two Mega man and eventually went with the 3DS one. I should have went with the Wii U one since it's going head to head against Pink Macâ„¢.
@BertoFlyingFox I didn't say 3DS owners will suddenly buy a Wii U just for the cross buy. But you are giving them more reason to buy one, hence the point of the promo. Wii U games will come. But currently, those existing games wasn't enough to entice gamers enough to buy one. And did you really think 1 or 2 VC games will make someone buy a Wii U? I was thinking multiple VC games.
Someone please enlighten me what's the difference of the 3D classics Kid Icarus and the NeS/Famicom Kid Icarus? The first one got an 8 and the NES VC got a 6 from NLife. I've never played one but I'm thinking of diving into the Kid Icarus franchise.
@Discipledoctor LOL. Anyway, I have this game on Steam. I'll wait for a sale maybe then I'll buy it again on the eShop. Or maybe at full price to show some support but at a later date.
In before someone says this game is overrated and it isn't worth the retail price and NLife is writing too much about it and they will come into a stupid conclusion.
Meh. I'm still waiting for Castlevania 3, Megaman V and X3, Super Mario RPG and N64 VC. I have high hopes we'll get more DS VC games next week when the free Brain Training ends.
Edit:
I did like twinbee a little bit on the Famicom back then. I'll keep an eye on the SNES one.

Nah, let the remasters separate from the poll to know which versions are most preferred. You could just add/combine the percentage later.

I think he was talking about Sega Megadrive/MasterSystem VC. You guys could still get Sega GBA games.
Re: It Doesn't Look Like We'll Be Seing Sega Games On The Wii U Virtual Console Any Time Soon
Sonic games are on Android and iOS anyway. But I'd love to play Bare Knuckle again. I might get on Wii mode then.

@BertoFlyingFox
If it will make half of the 40+ million 3DS owners to buy a Wii U, it will be worth it for Nintendo.
Re: Aussie Rating Outs Wii U Virtual Console Release Of Capcom's Onimusha Tactics
@Ralek85
Nintendo should do GBA crossbuy. But you can only buy it on the WiiU and you can download it both on your WiiU and 3DS.
Or they can sell it on both systems but the Wii U will be 10-20% cheaper and the only one which offers the cross buy promo. Well, to push the Wii U.
