I don't believe that Nintendo would go the extra mile to implement wiimote in Mario Paint. Then again, they DID go the extra mile to save Pokemon Snap pictures... and maybe they'll go the extra mile to create N64 memory card emulation? ... AH DARN IT. T_T I'm just setting myself up for disappointment.

Pokemon Snap picture sharing isn't an "extra mile." It's an extra footstep in a marathon race that was over three years ago.

Also I should add there was a GBA game of Phantasy star 1,2, and 3 a few years back. If your interested in the series. That'll give you the most bang for your buck.
The PS2 collection has 2,3 and 4 plus a crapload of other MD games IIRC.

I got Ninja Shinobi 3. Somehow S3 seemed quite easy even though I decided not to focus my full attention to it. I think S3 is easy because I've been playing alot of Contra 4, and I'm not even finished with C4 because I can only reach stage 5 on Normal without dying and then I loose all my lives on both stages 5 and 6 because I haven't trained myself in those stages /rant.

Edit: Oops. I meant Ninja Gaiden 3.

I was really surprised by Phantasy Star 2, I was not sure if I was going to get it but it is very enjoyable and pretty difficult for a game of it's age.

How is Phantasy Star 2. I will probably download it when I get some more points.

I was just looking for gameplay footage of psychosis because I never played it and the game is a side scrolling shooter you have these 2 satellite nodes in front of your ship for defense and you have 3 types of weapons and the wierdest part of this it takes place in your mind. This demon takes over your mind and you have to fight to reclaim it, it also has 5 “causes” stages to go through. The only thing that stands  out is the storyline. I probably won't DL this I still have to beat Gates of thunder I am stuck on Dark city.

I was just thinking what console  North America should get. With Europe getting the Commodore 64 and Japan getting the MSX in may what would you North Americans like? I'd like the Saturn or the Intelivision.

Well in a Dream, Cast by me, It would be the Dreamcast.  But in reality, how about like the 3DO or the Saturn.  Or the gameboy.  I don't want to get too old and have stupid atari games on there. No offense to all those I probably completely pissed off.

A little update on this Mondays game(s?) my sources  friend says that he can't release the press release till late Sunday night. So this gives us another day to speculate. I think it is SSB or maybe SMRPG or Earthbound. There has to be a reason for the delay.

Hmm, well SSB is quite likely, just like SMB3 was released a week before Galaxy. Or maybe it'll be next week to coincide with Brawl.

Well for me, SSB, so far, has been one of those series' that replaces it's predecessor.  So I have no intention of buying that.

Now that you mention the Gameboy for VC, it would certainly be great. Perhaps a VC for the DS available through the Wii? Come on. I bet some genius at Nintendo thought of that, no?

But where would the games be stored? Or even the save files? I'd be fine with Game Boy games playable on the Wii; it'd be like the Game Boy Player, which tragically doesn't work on the Wii!

I hope it's SSB, 'cause I'd like to be able to play it with the Gamecube controller, though the lack of rumble still kills me.

I don't think Nintendo releasing N64 games two weeks in a row is likely given their policy so far of one per month or less. If it were SMRPG or Earthbound I'd be kicking myself for spending all my points this past week.

If you can download demos onto a DS then I'm sure you can also upload save data to the Wii. Unless of course the internal memory of the DS is not sufficient for the GB file sizes.
