Our staff decides which of the upcoming games they will sink their time into.

As all of our Staff Sezs begin, we prompted the entire staff with a question. With the Wii U Virtual Console set to launch tomorrow, it only seemed fitting to find out which games everyone would be picking up. Would the staff pick up a new title, continue playing last month's featured release, or skip this special event all together? To find out what everyone would do, we asked the staff:

Which Wii U VC Game Are You Most Excited to Play?

Check out all of their responses below, you may even be able to figure out which game is the clear favorite.

Patrick "Trick" Barnett:
Super Mario World so I can finally collect all of the Dragon Coins.

Neal "Game Exploiter" Ronaghan:
I need to play Super Mario World long enough to at least get to the Forest of Illusion 1-UP trick.

Carmine "Kiddy Kong" Red:
Donkey Kong Jr. Someone needs to rescue Donkey Kong AND all the VC games Nintendo is holding prisoner with him.

Tyler "Dead Yoshi" Ohlew:
Super Mario World: Have I played it to death, and again with its corpse? Absolutely. On the GamePad with my soaps on the TV? NOPE!

J.P. "The P stands for Poor Taste" Corbran:
I'm giving LTTP another chance; why not Mario World too?

Guillaume "Joker" Veillette:
I can't choose. I'm excited to play all of the obscure releases in the launch line-up.

Andy "Looks on the Bright Side" Goergen:
I find nothing to look forward to about the launch lineup, except for that it means that soon there will be a better lineup.

Jonathan "Not This Week" Metts:
Nothing from this launch lineup. I already have the ones I want on VC.

Jon "Not Sure If Serious" Lindemann:
I'm buying a Wii U specifically for Balloon Fight.

Justin "Multiplicity" Berube:
I'm not looking forward to any of these titles since I own them all on multiple formats already.

Zack "Not Falling For That Crap" Kaplan:
I would play Kirby but owning it a fourth time seems kind of silly. (>'-')>

Zach "Four Way" Miller:
I guess I'll keep playing Kirby's Adventure. I own it three or four ways now.

Alex "Dirty Pirate" Culafi:
I don't get excited about ROMs, official or not.

Nicholas "Wistful" Bray:
I'd have to say the only one I will probably download is Super Mario World. I hope for regular updates.

Danny "Is In Japan And Therefore Has A Way Better Launch Lineup on Wii U VC, Jerk" Bivens:
Super Mario World. I already own something like 5 copies. Why not a sixth in Japanese?

What do you mean? They already have it for 8 games. I don't trust Emily Rogers for rumors, but she has a good article about how much effort it actually takes to make a Wii U version of Virtual Console games (which is why they aren't all available right away).

Well, i've got Ghost and Goblins Arcade version and Monster World IV sitting in my Wii mode.

It would have been nice to play them from Wii U menu right away, Nintendo.

Apart from this -- Super Metroid (30 cents, dude), LTTP maybe.
