There are quite a few old games on VC which I'd love to try, but am not willing to buy (it's a shame how games are priced based on format, not on the publisher's perceived willingness to pay). Definitely, pretty much for that reason. Nintendo are in a better position than anyone else to do that, as well. OnLive would have been a very different proposition had Nintendo been involved. |

| How amazing would a VC subscription service be? I don't think I'd buy a new game again.
I don't think it's such a bad thing that games are priced according to format - do you think that Nintendo would rather sell something like Super Mario RPG for £15 than 800 Nintendo Points? At least on Wii, I thought the pricing of NES, Master System and Mega Drive downloads sucked, but I felt that most SNES and N64 stuff was pretty good value. |

| It's a good week for the Wii U VC:
http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2013/05/nintendo_download_16th_may_europe
Not played enough of Super Metroid to have a say, but Super Mario Bros 2 and Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts are both brilliant. The latter will be near enough faultless with restore points added to it. |

| Think restore points are going to ruin the challenge of Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts. If I rebuy it, I won't be using them*
*Completely ignoring the fact that suspend points on the Wii Virtual Console version would have ruined the challenge of the original. |

| My only problem with SGnG is the difficulty - there's a difference between good challenge and what-a-load-of-bollocks hard. It's not unfair, just really, really punishing. I can be doing without that when I play a game, quite honestly. |

Super Metroid's on my "I'm going to pay £1.50 to upgrade this" list. It's a very important list! What? |

| If the man wants to pay more then let him pay more.
A good week indeed but I'll just be sticking to Super Metroid because its cheap as chips (potato chips that is (and cheap ones at that)). |

| It's Super Virtual Console day! Super Mario Bros 2. and Super Ghouls 'N Ghosts are up for download. In a nice touch, it looks like you can get SMB2 for 20% off (taking it to £2.79) you've already downloaded Super Mario World onto your Wii U. More of that please, Nintendo. |

| I've been playing a good bit of SMB2 today & absolutely loving it despite only gettig to world 4-3 (with the warp) the characters & music are just brilliant!
I also downloaded Metroid & SGnG but not got around to playing them yet. |

| I'm very tempted by SMB2, even though I've got versions of it on SNES, GBA and Wii. I'm mad, obviously.
I know it's the so-called main event of the Trial Campaign, but I can't drum up the enthusiasm to play Super Metroid. Again, I'm mad, obviously. |

| Aye, I already have SMB2 on wii as well so I can rightfully join the mad party as for Super metroid (another I have on wii) I got round to playing it today & it was really fun.
Get it played. |

| Excellenté! Two Kirby games this week, both available at a discount if you were one of the everybody who downloaded Kirby's Adventure for 30p:
http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2013/05/nintendo_download_23rd_may_europe
I've never played Kirby's Dream Course before, so I'm quite looking forward to that. I've seen people call Kirby Super Star the best game of all time - while I feel that might be a bit OTT, it is an absolute stoater, and really, really good value at £3.79. Download with confidence! |

| But a game I had no reason to go back to ![Laughing](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_lol.gif) It was pretty easy until the last boss and I have no intention of doing that again. Also 30P is pretty much all I have until september. |

| For the record I too didn't download Kirby's Adventure - and I haven't downloaded any of the others, either. They're all sitting on my Wii or didn't interest me. Might get Kirby's Dream Course, mind - since its Wii VC release I've become a lot more interested in Kirby. |
