Can't believe how bad the graphics are! Looking back the Game Boy version was just as good as the NES version for graphics! Harder than I remember too, those sweeping fire balls are tricky to get past, well they were for me anyway. Took a few attempts. Got up to level 2-1 this morning then got my self killed by not dodgy a shell that was moving towards me

I selected a 2 player mode for Luigi too, but you need 2Wiimotes for that.

You turn the Wiimote on its side for this game and use it like a conventional controller, I wasn't sure how good the infra red would be playing like this but its spot on.

I was going to get this but where it shows you the controler that you can use it dosnt show the wiimote, only gamecube and the standard controller that you can buy for the wii so didnt bother.

You have to link your Wii up to a broadband connection, either cable or biult in wireless and then access the virtual console via tha Wii shop. About £5-7 for games

Lupogti, it does show the Wiimote for this, later versions ie the SNES version you need a GameCube controller for.

Nath, on the Shopping Channel, theres loads of NES, SNES, N64, GameCube, MegaDrive, TurboGraphix games. Prices range from 500 points (£3.50) up to 1000 points.

I don't know what you mean Steve?

I never knew the Wii was wireless. Just connected mine up and had a browse. Might buy something, although I actually have a SNES anyway!
