Title: Wrecking Crew released on Virtual Console in North America

"Wrecking Crew (http://www.themushroomkingdom.net/games/wc) (NES®, 1-2 players, rated E for Everyone, 500 Wii Points): In the days before Mario and Luigi became sports stars in their downtime between plumbing and saving the Princess, they tried their hands as one-man wrecking crews. With a hammer as their only tool, players take control of the brothers and set out to destroy ladders, rip out pipes, knock down walls and detonate explosive devices. But make sure to plan your path of destruction carefully, as each building is designed as its own clever puzzle—if you're not careful, you can easily trap yourself in a dead end. Adding to the excitement and challenge are fireballs, enemies and an angry foreman roaming the buildings. They're all trying to stop you from moving on to the next stage. With 100 buildings to demolish and the ability to construct your own, it's a wonder Mario and Luigi ever got back to saving the Mushroom Kingdom."

If you are like me and have never played it you might want to check out the vc-reviews.com (http://www.vc-reviews.com/review/552/wrecking-crew.php) review and video. I'll be downloading it today.

Also where's our Donkey Kong 64? i used to have it and it was almost the best Donkey Kong game ive ever played but then I sold it to my freind for 10 dolar's to help me get a Wii. Surprised they dident put that one up yet.

But yeah, where are our N64 games. It seems like we haven't gotten one in AGES!
