I'm pretty sure I was near the end when I stopped playing, but I was getting tired of the constant back tracking after a game over. I'll make a more formal post soon.Zenic Reveriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16441583549326102945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4946916641850178817.post-63325624743472743942012-03-27T21:51:04.279-07:002012-03-27T21:51:04.279-07:00Yeah, late Christmas, I guess.

(Yes, it is spelled that way in the game.)<br /><br />The Wii Virtual Console has a bunch of games from different platforms including arcade, Neo Geo, Commodore 64, Genesis, TurboGrafx, and the NES consoles. Here's the full list:<br /><br />http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Virtual_Console_games_%28North_America%29<br /><br />I use the S-Video cable I got online, and it looks must better on CRTs. Before the text was kind of blurry, and now it's clear. Definitely recommend it if your TV has the option.Zenic Reveriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16441583549326102945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4946916641850178817.post-17864849305641805442012-03-27T10:50:50.275-07:002012-03-27T10:50:50.275-07:00Did they seriously spell "gnome" as &quo...Did they seriously spell "gnome" as "knome?" WTF?<br /><br />You can play a TurboGrafx-16 game on Wii Virtual Console? Interesting. I thought only Nintendo games would work there. I do know almost nothing about the Wii. We (or Wii) just got one a couple weeks ago. I just have to get a composite video cable for it, before the money gets spent on something else...Amy K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10892876651484617812noreply@blogger.com
