Besides the ability to play Wii and GameCube games, the Nintendo Wii also allows you to play those console classics of the good ol’ days. The list of supported classic game systems are :
- Nintendo Entertainment System (NES)
- Super Nintendo (SNES)
- Nintendo 64 (N64)
- Sega Megadrive
- TurboGrafx-16 (PC Engine)
At the moment there are about 60 or 70 games available and they can be bought for 500-1000 Wii points (about 5-10 bucks) through the Virtual Console channel.
Before buying a game, I would recommend checking out vc-reviews.com , a site where you can find the latest news, reviews and other useful information on these Virtual Console games.
