Wii Virtual Console to reach 100 game milestoneDela @ Jun 01, 2007 23:11 | 15 comments
Super Mario Bros, Super Mario 64, Mario Kart 64, Super Mario World, and The Legend of Zelda are the top five games to be downloaded (in order). Microsoft's Xbox 360 has well over 100 Xbox Live Arcade titles on offer, leaving Sony trailing with just a few downloads available from the PlayStation Store. Sony does not yet update its service on a weekly basis like Microsoft or Nintendo.
The Wii still remains the only home console on the market without games that offer online multiplayer however, and it is rumored he Wii's online gaming service won't be finished development until next year. "Beyond the Wii Shop Channel, all types of people are getting connected and checking out the information and entertainment options available on the Wii Menu," said Nintendo marketing VP, George Harrison.

Nintendo is set to add another few games to the Wii Virtual Console service on Monday, including Zelda II, which will bring the total number of games on offer through the service to over 100. In over six months since the console launched, the service has served about 4.7 million downloads or about 16 downloads a minute on average since November 19 last year.

Comment by: Unfocused (Jul 19, 2007 23:11) $10 is kind of steep for a game that I already paid $50 for and still have. |
