Just ordered this on my Club Nintendo account. I think it's unfair that you can only get it as a freebe (being able to get it before it is released on the Wii Shop Channel to everyone else for 500 Wii Points I would consider more reasonable). Not that I've ever played the retail version. Man, typing all this on the Internet Channel is hard work!
I have a broken copy of red version, blue version, a copy of gold version that won't save (but I still have the instruction booklet), crystal version, diamond version and about a zillion pokemon cards. I am such a fanatic. 1st Comment!
I was interested in this game when it first came out, but I guess it isn`t worth my time. Man, it`s hard to do all this typing on the Wii`s Internet Channel!
I think I figured out why Nintendo won't release Donkey Kong 64 or Majora's Mask. 2 words: Expansion Pack. If the Virtual Console can't use Controller Packs or Rumble Packs, Why would it be able to use Expansion Packs? Unless Nintendo figures out a way to solve that problem Majora's Mask will never come to the VC. (Good thing I have Majora's Mask for my N64)

Graphics-wise this game looks like the Super Mario RPG of the Genisis. But Super Mario RPG is better at every other aspect. Considering they both cost 800 Wii Points, you should ignore this and get Super Mario RPG instead.
I like this better than Super Mario RPG. This game has witty dialogue, brilliant puzzles and a unique theme. "Paper Mario" Where do they come up with this stuff? Anyway, This game is fantastic and if you've never played it you NEED to get this. It's one of the best RPGs of all time. I've played every Paper Mario game and this is the best one. (With Thousand Year Door a close 2nd)
@85. slangman The only flaw in this game is that it ends!? This must be a good game, but is it better than OOT? (I haven't played eather one so could someone tell me which is better)
I got this game for free and it is good. Worth $5 any day.
@22. KnucklesSonic8 RealArcade posted a few ads in the comments section that they were giving this game away for free as a contest. You had to send an email to tikitowers@real.com telling them your Wii Number. If you entered early enough you would get an email saying RealArcade's Wii Number. If you set your Wii to get gifts you would have gotten it the day it came out. They still haven't deleted my Wii Number so I send them messages about what I think of the game.

Re: Super Monkey Ball
Check out this page: http://retro.nintendolife.com/games/gamecube/super_monkey_ball_2 There's nothing there! Please write a description and review of this fun sequel!
Re: Super Monkey Ball Step & Roll
The only monkey ball game I have is super monkey ball 2 http://retro.nintendolife.com/games/gamecube/super_monkey_ball_2
Monkey Target, Dogfight and Race are the best party games in my opinion.
Re: Super Monkey Ball 2
This is the only monkey ball game I own

Re: Super Metroid
I played the Brawl demo and it is AWESOME!!! This is on my to-get-list. Along with Starfox 64. So many VC games so little cash.

Re: Dr. Mario Online RX

Re: High Voltage Games/YUKE'S Company of America Interview - Evasive Space
