Someone has created something called the Shaft, which is designed to play arcade ports (like the NES Pac-Man) the way they were meant to be played.

Buy the Shaft for the Wii. It's designed with two buttons and a joystick to play your favorite arcade games like they were meant to be played (perfect for the NES Pac-Man port).

Well, now we know where Nintendo has been all this time. Maybe now we'll get multiple games in one update.

Final Fantasy, while revolutionary, opened a can of worms for videogames. Because of its success, we have thousands of games just like it.

I'm buying an SD card now! This is much better! Now the card can act as a memory card instead of a storage bin.

I'm surprised they're doing arcade games now, when they already have Pac-Man, Space Invaders, etc.

Still, this is great! Now, would the 2GB be sufficient or would the 4GB one be recommended?

Here's to more multiple game weeks.

MY WISHLIST

NES: Darkwing Duck, Duck Tales, Rescue Rangers, Tale Spin
SMS: Columns, Ecco the Dolphin, Castle of Illusion
SNES: Goof Troop, Star Fox
GENESIS: Gargoyles, Tecmo Super Hockey
N64: Super Smash Bros.
SATURN: Virtua Fighter 2

@40: I certainly hope not. However, they could say "screw it" and release Golf for the NES instead. {sarcastically} Oh boy!

At least it's two next week. Here's hoping that this will continue. However, Nintendo seems to love the lesser systems. There must be more Turbografx than SNES.

I guess this means it'll come out here Monday.

That can only mean one thing: that's all we'll get on Monday.

This is a good start. Now I can buy points cards for $10 instead of $20.

I suppose they focus on the lesser titles because it's easier to get the rights for them. Also, the lesser systems like C64 and TG16 are easier to emulate (C64 especially). N64 is probably the hardest for them. I've been hoping for Saturn, but that might be too complex for them.

I've beaten SBCG4AP episode 1, so maybe I could try beating the next four episodes and by then hopefully something will have come out.

Why do I even check? Nowadays it's always one game, and one I could not care less about. Remember that the Christmas '08 release was one game as well, so they're just squeezing out the games one by one.

@62: I've already downloaded Star Fox 64, but I'd like a Star Fox from each generation

@61: When they do get the FX emulators ready, they should do Yoshi's Island as well.

I hope the SMS is released, because I love the music in that version.

The multiplayer is awesome!

I got this for GBA after enjoying FSA. I love it!

This is a good brother-sister game, because you can switch between Diddy and Dixie.

I'm surprised they released this before Pokemon Stadium.

One SF2 is enough. Why'd they have to release more than one?

I always loved this because it was different.

I loved this game. The Mario Bros. Easter egg in multiplayer mode was awesome. It's a shame it didn't have saving (although the GBA version does).

An absolute classic.

I've been curious about this series. It looks cool, and I might get this or Super Metroid.

Why'd they have to release five sequels of Mega Man onto the NES? It only makes it longer to get to the SNES version.

Arcade games can be played with the 3rd-party accessory known as The Shaft, designed with a joystick and buttons for that classic arcade feel.

Arcade games are best left in the arcades. However, I heard that there's a 3rd-party controller out there known as the Shaft, which is designed to make it so that arcade games like this, Space Invaders, etc can be played as if they were in arcades.

I'm surprised this wasn't a launch title. It was packaged with the SNES, wasn't it?

I was disappointed when this was brought to the VC. Why have more than one Street Fighter? It's all the same game to me.

You can get Pac-Man almost anywhere. Why bother downloading it?

I tried this game, and was disappointed that there weren't very many countries in it. I took it back. I'd rather play Tecmo Super Hockey.

I guess we won't see Mega Man 7 for awhile considering how long it's taken to get this far. Good thing I have the collection for GC. However, using the GC controller is awkward.

I'm tempted to get this. I have the GC collection, but using the GC controller is awkward.

I tried the demo, but it feels too much like Kirby. They should create a new one using Pit's current form. That'd be sweet.

I tried the demo on SSBB, but didn't understand it.

I can't figure out the wings, nor can I handle the red coins missions.

This game is cool, but get the GC version of you want the full experience. Majora's Mask is also on the GC if you can find the collector's edition. I have OOT/MQ.

I downloaded this to give Kirby another chance after Squeak Squad sucked. I love this game! It combines the fun of sidescrollers with a new 3D twist. The sidescrolling aspect is annoying sometimes, but it still looks cool nonetheless. It's the first Kirby game I ever liked, and convinced me to get Super Star Ultra (which I also like).

I love it. I thas the nostalgic feel of SMK with the modern elements of MKDD. The characters look like they came out of SMRPG.

This game is good for exploring. It's not about beating it, but beating it well. It's very cute, like the whole series. The "2.5-D" thing implies that it has isometrics and Yoshi is in 3D, but the rest is 2D.

I tried this game as a kid, but didn't like it. Now I'm hooked, but wish that the game saved after every boss battle (like Assault does). It's cool nonetheless, but it really needs the vibration function. Will Nintendo please update the software so that we can have the rumble? Please.....?

I got Paper Mario TYD after being disappointed at the lack of traditional elements in Sunshine. I got hooked on TYD and eventually got Super Paper Mario and have since downloaded Paper Mario and Super Mario RPG. I even have M&L Partners In Time

SSB Brawl convinced me to download it. It is very addictive. Wish I'd bought the GBA version.

This is the first time I've ever had this game other than the GBA enhancement. It rocks! SSB Brawl partially convinced me to download it. It is so addictive!

I was ecstatic when this game came out. I have it downloaded and have gotten up to Booster Tower. Bowser is awesome!

Why do they keep adding games I've never heard of? When are we gonna get StarFox?

Another boring update. Meh.

Considering they already have Star Fox 64 and Mario Kart 64, I'm surprised they don't don't already have the originals. The same goes for Super Mario RPG. How can they have the N64 versions and not the SNES versions? Another thing is that they have Kirby and Yoshi for the NES and N64, but not the SNES.

One thing I've always hoped for, but probably will never see is the Disney Afternoon series.
