Wii News by Ellie Gibson

12 June, 2009

Nintendo 64 classic Super Smash Bros. is being released via the Virtual Console today.

According to Official Nintendo Magazine it will cost 1000 Wii Points - around GBP 7 / EUR 10. For that you'll get a dozen fighters, nine stages and a four-player co-op mode.

Also out today is WiiWare title Cocoto Platform Jumper, as first seen on the PS2. There are 40 vertical levels to jump around and it costs 700 Points (GBP 5 / EUR 7).

New DSiWare titles include Asphalt 4: Elite Racing from Gameloft. It's another four-player effort, this time with eight cities and 28 cars, plus the option to customise your car with photos taken using the DSi camera. Then there's Hudson Soft's Sudoku 150!, a collection of 150 number puzzles. Asphalt 4 is 800 Points (GBP 6 / EUR 8), while Sudoku 150! is 500 Points (GBP 3.50 / EUR 5).

Is there any point?

SSBB is the pinacle of SSB games - anything else is just not up to scratch.

Melee was the pinnacle; Brawl was more of the same and as such I haven't touched it since release.

I don't think I could stand playing the original again. Too much has been added to the newer games.

I've been waiting for this to show up since VC was announced. Despite Melee clearly being a better game, I have pined for the original for years since getting shot of my N64.

Pricey but worth it for a nostalgic-if-not-a-bit-basic fighter :o)

Thankfully I have some Nintendo points laying around, because my son will go nuts if I don't get this for him!

I still prefer Super Smash Bros Melee, and I always will, but it's always nice to have the option of buying the original. Good stuff!

I'm still hoping for a DSi Virtual Console though, so I can play this (and other N64 games that'd work with that number of buttons) on the move.

I disagree - they all have different quirks and levels.
