Creeper made it on the list? What? And, wow, Hades is only 50? Should have been in at least 15th or higher. But... where's Emperor Bulblax from the first Pikmin?
Nintendo is only doing this because they want to release the games in their ORIGINAL form. Balloon Fight's ORIGINAL form was 50hz. That's the point of Virtual Console. The only reason they change anything are for 3 reasons:
1.) Legal Issues 2.) An accessory would have to be used on the original system that's not compatible with the VC system. 3.) There is something that was acceptable in the 80's or 90's that's a sensitive subject now (very rare)
Oh, SCREW PUNCH-OUT. I want EarthBound! I mean, I would pay like $20 to get it on VC. Please don't be cruel, Nintendo. Bring it to America for full price, no double price. I will buy four copies of every first party game... for everyone I know.
I will take a picture inside the Bulbear's mouth... actually I'm too scared of Bulbears already, I may have to consider this a horror game when in underground areas.
I would like a cross between the courses of Super Mario 64 and the gameplay shown in Super Mario Galaxy. But if this is Super Mario Galaxy 3 I will be disappointed. And I wasn't disappointed with New Super Mario Bros 2 until I played it. =
It would have helped the castle. This game was a huge disappointment. It's not bad, but it's nowhere near as good as it could have been/should have been. As soon as I saw the new style of fighting my excpectations of this fell through the floor. There were no partners, only three towns, and it's just... ugh. It looked way better in E3 2010 and 2011. If Miyamoto really made Intelligent Systems screw this game up I'll never be able to buy another one of his "series-changing gimmick" games. World 6-3 was missing something and this should have been it. It didn't HAVE to be out this year. I could wait forever for an excellent-looking sequel (like Luigi's Mansion 2). They delayed that to Q1 2013, they should have done the same with this, if not more extreme. If they didn't add in the sticker gimmick in the last minute, it would have been fine! The only thing they got right was that all the characters are cool, but there were no partners! What happened to that Chain Chomp from E3 2010? I have nothing against Kertsi, but what's an RPG without partners? NINTENDO...!
Paper Mario: Sticker Star wasn't all THAT great but I can see it getting second... but never first. It just lost the wonderful feels that Paper Mario 64 and TTYD had. It didn't even have Super Paper Mario's feel, it was just... odd. But New Super Mario Bros 2 is the worst NSMB game, it's so unoriginal, and it doesn't even ATTEMPT holding a candle to Kid Icarus, but nonetheless a decent Mario game. KI:U NEEDS first. =(

What a mistake. Nintendo, you're going to waste an incredible amount of money on this. No online play? Really? You should have at least released this before the Wii U came out. But then there's the Game Boy Micro... oh Nintendo. I love you but you're crazy sometimes.
SERIOUSLY? New Super Mario Bros 2 got a 9, and this gets an 8? Seriously, you guys think that's better than ANY Zelda game? I call for a second opinion.

Re: 3DS Version Of Super Smash Bros 4 To Be Shown At E3
I think it's pretty obvious the Wii U version will be better, and I will be picking that version up first. I'll get the 3DS version eventually.
Re: Bowser Is Officially The Greatest Video Game Villain Of All Time
Creeper made it on the list? What? And, wow, Hades is only 50? Should have been in at least 15th or higher. But... where's Emperor Bulblax from the first Pikmin?
Re: Talking Point: The Wii U Virtual Console Trial Campaign's Advertising Role
EarthBound for 30 cents in Japan <3
I will be picking all of these up except for Yoshi (NES).

Where's the first Conta?
Re: Nintendo Details Multiplayer Mode In Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon
Is one of the Luigis Waluigi? Luigi's Mansion 2 will be at least a 9/10 game, certainly.

Re: Wii U Party Will Get The Family Together This Summer
Gah... well Wii Party wasn't too bad, maybe I'll get this one. MAYBE.
Re: Nintendo Shows Off Monolith Soft's Wii U Project
And I just got Xenoblade... let's hope this is even better!
Re: 3D Super Mario Title In Development For Wii U
I would like a cross between the courses of Super Mario 64 and the gameplay shown in Super Mario Galaxy. But if this is Super Mario Galaxy 3 I will be disappointed. And I wasn't disappointed with New Super Mario Bros 2 until I played it. =
Re: Mario Kart Wii U Driving Into E3 This Year
Please be more like the ones on DS and 3DS and not like the one on Wii. Also, please include Waluigi.
Re: New Yoshi Title Being Developed By The Guys Behind Kirby's Epic Yarn
Hopefully it's different enough from Kirby's Epic Yarn. It was a great game, yeah, but it shouldn't be the same.
Re: Nintendo Launches Wii U Virtual Console Trial Campaign Today
EarthBound? F...f...for 30 CENTS? And they fixed the copyright issues? Am I in Heaven?
Sadly my Wii U is in purgatory. How long does Balloon Fight take to load once you open it? =(
Re: Nintendo Unveils The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD for Wii U
Yes! Now I'll finally be able to get around to beating Wind Waker!
Re: Nintendo Reveals Plans For Wii U Virtual Console
Is anybody else's Wii U taking a long time to open Balloon Fight? I tried opening it and my Wii U has been processing this for an hour. =( PLEASE HELP
Re: Rumour: 3DS Cartridge Could Allow Handheld to Function as Wii U Controller
Why would you ever want this to happen. There's not even two Circle Pads or enough buttons. I'm not counting the Circle Pad Pro, of course.
Re: Virtual Boy Port of Faceball Is Getting A Physical Release
I'm trying to find a Virtual Boy. Once I get it, I'll be able to get a bigger collection thanks to these fan-released games.
Re: Paper Mario: Sticker Star Had Some Mini-Games Left On The Cutting Room Floor

Re: Chuck E. Cheese's Alien Defense Force
Why? Waste of time, if there was a 0 rating this would deserve it.
Re: Nintendo Is Sorry For Wii U Load Times, Is Working On A Fix
I haven't noticed this issue.
Re: This New Super Mario Bros. 2 Course Pack Will Push Your Skills To The Limit
I still haven't gotten the last 2 DLC packs,but these look way better, I'll be picking these up first for sure.
Re: Entire SNES Game Collection Up For Sale
Too bad I only have $20. I need a job.
Re: Capcom Announce Street Fighter X Mega Man
Holy freaking crap. This looks great! Too bad it's on PC only. I would have loved for it to be on the eShop, XLBA, and PSN.
Re: Nintendo Download: 6th December 2012 (North America)
I'l get the Fractured Soul demo, and the New Super Mario Bros 2 DLC. I may get Mighty Bomb Jack, but it sounds pretty bad.
Re: Retro City Rampage Storming Onto WiiWare Soon
So, are they paying the director of Back to the Future royalties on that artwork?
Re: Satoru Iwata is 53 Today
Happy Birthday, Iwata-san!
May God be at your side!
Re: Rumour: Yoshi's Land Coming To Wii U
I would LOVE for this to happen! There hasn't been a Yoshi platformer since 2006's Yoshi's lsand DS.
Re: Wii Mini Is Official And Has No Online Connectivity
What a mistake. Nintendo, you're going to waste an incredible amount of money on this. No online play? Really? You should have at least released this before the Wii U came out. But then there's the Game Boy Micro... oh Nintendo. I love you but you're crazy sometimes.
Re: Pokémon Pokédex Is Coming To iOS Devices In Japan
no... No... NO
Nintendo... this is the begin of your fall isn't it. why...
Re: Wii to Wii U Data Transfer Details Emerge
@Angelic_Lapras_King So, while step 2 happens, I do step 3? I'm confused
Re: Review: Paper Mario: Sticker Star (3DS)
So, would you rather play this or New Super Mario Bros 2? BTW, NSMB2 was still rated too high. =
Re: Zero Escape: Virtue's Last Reward Bug Infects Save Data
Well... that really sucks. There better be a patch, or I'm not buying this.
Re: Review: Cake Ninja 2 (DSiWare)
Eh, we all knew this was just a rehash of the first one... We're all sorry you had to go through this...
Re: Electroplankton Varvoice
So... what's the difference between these DSiWare games and the original Electroplankton?
Re: Review: Mortal Kombat (Game Boy)
Man, I thought Mortal Kombat on Super Nintendo was bad... I;m really sorry you went out of your way to review this. XD
Re: Review: Samurai G (3DS eShop)
UFO... why do you try? BTW, can't wait to see your review on Jonny Hotshot, the sequel to Jonny Kung Fu XD
Re: Review: Kirby's Dream Collection: Special Edition (Wii)
Why an 8/10? This definitely deserves a 9/10. Otherwise, this was a nice review.
Re: Review: Pac-Man (Virtual Console / NES)
So is this the 1987 Tengen version or 1993 Namco version on VC? Either way, nice review.
Re: Review: Devil World (Virtual Console / NES)
Well, NES 2 and Devil World PAL cart, here I come. If only I could spend $5 on it instead of $70+ here in America.
Re: Review: The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (Wii)
SERIOUSLY? New Super Mario Bros 2 got a 9, and this gets an 8? Seriously, you guys think that's better than ANY Zelda game? I call for a second opinion.
Re: The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
The only downside to playing this on GCN is no 16:9. But in all other aspects, this version is better.
Re: Review: New Super Mario Bros. (DS)
@Simon_Deku Those are beta screenshots...
Anyways, very nice review as always, Corbie.
Re: New Super Mario Bros. U
@StarDust They're not, don't worry. Most of the songs are original, the only ones so far that aren't are the castle and the menus.
Re: Talking Point: Games That Need Wii U - World of Warcraft
No, laughs, no. Warcraft was ruined after Warcraft 3, when I believe it became World of Warcraft.
Re: Watch: First US Wii U Advert Appears
Not bad. There should be less kids and casual crap in the next ad.
