Ive played some of these before on an emulator, but i'd rather get them on wii's virtual console.
Also, i dont need any n64 recommendation's. I have a n64 an would rather get the real game cartridge's. But you can name some n64 game's anyway's.

Well, if you played any virutal console game's, let me know what one's you liked.
g'day.

oh, and it will probably be awhile till i can get some cuz i need that ethernet adapter part to download with.:gonk: and i have to order it online. :gasp:
and im poor as dirt. :gonk:
g'day.
 
Haven't gotten much in the way of Wii Points to be downloading stuff, so I can't say too much, except excellent choice having Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars on your to buy list (not too buy list. :P).

That is probably the best SNES game, period, in my opinion. Really fun gameplay, and just enjoyable overall, can't really think of any complaints at all for it, a very solid old game, and a great buy for the Wii's virtual console.

I would suggest getting that before any of those, personally, because I doubt you could get a much better game out there for such old systems than that, it was pretty advanced for it's time, with eight directional movement, and jumping of course, since it is Mario after all.
 
Nice choices, though you are going to be tearing out your hair trying to get through all the Ninja Gaiden and Castlevania games!

I'd also recommend getting Super Mario Bros 3, which is my favourite NES game, and Link to the Past, which is an excellent SNES game. Then again, maybe you've played these on GBA or something, in which case skip those. If you're looking for some old school RPGs to explore though, the Phantasy Star games are well worth trying out. They're SEGA games, but the original series (1 through to 4) are all on VC. #3 is a bit boring, but the others are great RPGs.
 
I've purchased the following from the Virtual Console:

Super Mario 64
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
Super Mario Bros
Super Mario World
Kirby's Dreamland

I wish Banjo-Kazooie and Goldeneye 64 would become available in the N64 section.
