Also, we are already getting Netflix via disk sometime soon. That's probably the best well get considering the Wii's space issues.

Is that official? Last time I checked it was only rumored (something Netflix was seeing if people would be interested in via survey). I haven't seen any confirmation yet from Nintendo or Netflix.

Man I haven't thought about arcade games in a while.
Of the top of my head I want The TMNT Arcade game,X-men, The Simpsons.

Epic Win. I would love all those games, especially THE SIMPSONS. I don't think that was ever released on any game console or ported ever. That would be great.

Was it just a poll? I thought it was a leaked piece of info from inside the company.

It's basically a survey to see if people would want Netflix on their Wii. I haven't seen anything to confirm that it will actually happen though.

Acutally, it received a PC port. I have it.

Unfortunately, it's on a 5" floppy, so I can't play it.

Paging easy joke, easy joke to reply 2704.

It also got a Commodore 64 port, although I heard it was pretty crappy.

There is also the fact that Electronic Arts (current holders of The Simpsons video game license) and Konami (which developed and published the arcade game) would have to reach some kind of deal.

MAJORA'S MASK IS HEADING TO JAPANESE VC!!!

hopefully we're next.

decoyman · « **Reply #2707 on:** March 27, 2009, 12:25:11 PM »

Oh, awesome.

I am so up for some Majora's Mask action!

TheFleece · « **Reply #2708 on:** March 27, 2009, 12:33:23 PM »

I never played it and it's a real big shame. I would absolutely love to play Majora's Mask!

So Nintendo must have resolved their expansion pak issues, hopefully soon they'll get over their Super FX problems.

Stratos · « **Reply #2710 on:** March 27, 2009, 02:01:02 PM »

I notice the game is 1200 points. I don't remember what the standard price for N64 games is but is that the same or more?

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #2711 on:** March 27, 2009, 02:02:17 PM »

1000 points is the standard price for N64 games.

KDR_11k · « **Reply #2712 on:** March 27, 2009, 02:07:42 PM »

Remember in Japan the prices vary between games with more popular games getting higherprices instead of flat prices for each system.

vudu · « **Reply #2713 on:** March 27, 2009, 02:10:05 PM »

Smash Bros was also 1,200 points in Japan.

Stratos · « **Reply #2714 on:** March 27, 2009, 02:34:42 PM »

I was wondering if they would raise the price because of the extra work needed to get expansion pack games running on the VC if that rumor was true.

TJ Spyke · « **Reply #2715 on:** March 27, 2009, 02:44:25 PM »

Meh, I wish I could get excited. I never liked Majora's Mask, the only time thing ruined it for me.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #2716 on:** March 30, 2009, 02:26:54 PM »

Todays games
Todays games are Bonsai Barber on WW and it costs 1000 points.
On the VC we have Super Punch Out!! and it costs 800 points.

Have fun with Super Punch Out!!

TJ Spyke, if you can get over the time thing, you'll get to experience arguably the most "mature" (as in emotionally mature) Zelda there's ever been. The side quests in this one are comparable in intensity and enjoyment with the main quest.

If that doesn't do it for you, UFOs! In a Zelda game!!

Shoving a sword through Ganon's head is far more mature.

I've already got SPO on Fight Night, but I'm buying it again!

Sarail · « **Reply #2721 on:** March 30, 2009, 08:09:21 PM »

Hah, I got as far as Dragon Chan in Super Punch-Out! today. Didn't play for long, primarily because of college papers to write, but wow...SPO is much more difficult than the original game. Good stuff!

Not bad. I made it to Super Macho Man and was absolutely obliterated!

So I was looking around vc-reviews and they have updated the site.It is now called nintendolife.com there are tabs at the top that goes to the coresponding areas of the site such as Retro and DSiware. Just thought I would give you guys a heads up.

Stratos · « **Reply #2724 on:** April 02, 2009, 04:39:43 AM »

NintendoLife is the parent site for WiiWare World and VC-Reviews. I figured that one of these days they would pull all the sites back together. I thought it was getting ridiculous with their talks of having a separate site for DSiWare as well.
