Let’s get the whining out of the way right now, because in a few moments, Virtual Console-watchers shouldn’t have much to cry about. There will only be two games added to the Wii Shop Channel this week. I know, this spits in the face of the traditional three we’ve been fed for nearly a year, but who cares? This week is "Import Week" for the Wii Shop Channel!
The first is the (at times) mind-bendingly difficult Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels (NES, 1 player, 600 Wii Points), which was originally released in Japan as Super Mario Bros. 2. But you already know that, right? The next is Sin and Punishment (Nintendo 64,1-2 players, 1200 Wii Points), the Treasure shooter that has never made its way to North American shores, despite English voice-overs, and high import demand. But you know that already, too, right?
Is there anything you don’t already know? Probably not. You’re smart cookies, which is what I like about you. So what I want to know is this: Are these the most exciting Virtual Console titles to date, or is it going to take more than a few imports (perhaps some original software) to get you animals excited? You are animals, you know.
