Metroid Prime 2 was a kick in the gut right from the get-go. That game's too hard for me.
I've said it before, but... I feel like more of a man for beating that game (not that you aren't--I'm just saying).

And that's kind of ironic in a twisted, funny sort of way--because Samus is a woman!

Overcoming the great challenge of MP2 makes us feel more accomplished. The longer I go without playing that game, the more I like it. I need to go back and remind myself how bad the level design was.

It's the Spider Ball Guardian that made me quit for a while.

Yeah, now that I think about it, it seems like the Virtual Console was probably targeted at people who didn't like the Game Boy Advance updates and just want straight emulation of the originals.  But I like the idea that the old games are still evolving...

I don't think it's targeted; it's just a cheap, quick, and easy way to make money.

It's probably there primarily for the people who, having been weaned on Wii games, care to play the classics. You know, the good ones.

It'd be ironic if the Virtual Console games were better than the actual Wii games. Seriously, there needs to be more options, more legal ways, of playing old games. Don't let them die. And don't upgrade them too much. The thought of Yoshi's voice for SMW2 changing to his modern Yoshi voice makes me queasy. But if the Baby Mario cry becomes less annoying, then I guess it's not all bad.

Are you kidding? Nintendo will never pass up a chance to sell Super Mario Bros. if they can help it.

I think the VC is also good because it's given Nintendo a venue for all their beloved remakes. I mean, the GBA was loaded with those things (but, hey, they were still pretty fun)!

Remakes are always fun if they're done right, with only graphics changes, if any. 

Level design change = bad
Censorship for modern politically correct reasons = bad

VC games aren't remakes.
That was a joke.

I thought I told you that he didn't have a voice in the SNES version!

...oh, right. Whoops. I must have been thinking of Yoshi's Story.
