Not bad titles. Let's hope for some good updates to add to that list. I probably won't get anything for now.

Dear Ninty, please hurry up and sort out this TurboGrafx situation. Theres no excuse for not having those games.

Oh, and for the 9 billionth time - Earthbound. Now.

Hrmm... $15 you say.
At that price I certainly won't be gorging myself on N64 titles... not that there are many to gorge on. I guess with pricing like that I'm going to have to be picky with the VC stuff I buy.
Hrmm... and I was hoping to eventually get each and every N64 title that interested me (assuming they were all released).

Lower it to $10 a pop Nintendo, and I'll splurge like a valley girl in a mall with her mother's credit card.

Are Wii Points cards selling in stores? If so, are they subject to % off sales and the like?

Not in my store they're not. The people there haven't even heard of them... Not a good sign.

If they release Paper Mario, Sin and Punishment, Castlevania: Legacy of Darkness, The New Tetris or Goemon's Great Adventure, $15 will be the worlds biggest bargain! They all go for heaps on ebay, some for over $100.

Personally I think there should be more of a sliding price scale. At the moment budget puzzle titles will cost the same as massive epics.

I wonder if they will put some VC games on a best of pack on a game disc, like they did with some of the XBLA games.

I've heard rumours you can change your region in the options to the UK and download their titles, has anyone tried this? Their list might be better :/

I'm definately wiiling to try that out!

Although i have no Wii-points yet, i plan too within the next week or so

And while on the topic of Wii-points, is there any way to gain Wii-Points without buying a points card or by credit-card? (like, by buying games or anything?)

I changed my region to the UK and went to the shop; Bang! Turbografx titles! 5 player bomberman 93!

And my points carried over from when I bought them in the Australia store. Looks like it's one site that checks your region before entering to customise the content.

EB Knox City had Wii Points on sale (I think, might have been a promo card or something).
