Selecting Games For Wii U Virtual Console

By Tanisha Berg


The Wii U has some excellent titles of its own. However a lot of gamers will often have fond memories of earlier titles from older consoles. The problem is they may not own that older console or the one they have is fallen into disrepair. However there is now a way to relive those fond memories of your old favourites with games for Wii U virtual console available for download.

The titles available will depend on the region you are buying from. For example in Europe you are restricted to the PAL titles available for download. However with 101 currently available titles it is likely that there will be something available that will be ideal for your personal gaming needs!

As with movies games you can choose from a variety of genres. Nintendo have generally been seen as the more family friendly console. Therefore a lot of the time when people think of their games they tend to think of platformers featuring colourful characters that are not particularly offensive.

However it is important to remember that cute and colourful does not necessarily mean easy or childish! As any committed gamer will tell you the classic Mario and Zelda titles may seem initially easy to pick up and play but once you get into them they are rich in detail and very well designed.

One of the best examples of this is Street Fighter 2 Turbo. While there were beat em up before and since this was the one that many consider to be the founder of this particular genre and established many of its conventions such as the grand special moves and quirky character celebrations at the end of the fight. As the name suggests it is slick and fast paced but it is also exciting, colourful and features some of the most distinctive characters to have graced the 2D arena.

Some may be ones that you remember. These include classics such as Zelda and Super Mario Bros. While games machines may have created more advanced graphics or cinematic cut scenes there is something eternally iconic in the deceptively simple look and inventive design of the finest work of Shigeru Miaymoto and his fellow designers. Others may be a gamble or based on the recommendation of a friend. However because the downloads are relatively inexpensive it is often worth having a go because you may stumble on a new favourite.

The amount each download costs varies depending on the type of console you are downloading it from. Therefore if you want to download something that was originally on the NES it will cost less than something that was originally for the SNES. It is also possible to transfer titles that were downloaded on the Wii and play them on the Wii U.

There is also the fact that the downloadable versions of the titles will have extra features that take advantage of the Wii U controls. It is worth looking at reviews before you download in order to find this out as well as getting an idea of how much the download will cost. In short the Wii U virtual console is the perfect place if you want to enjoy retro Nintendo games without the fuss!
