Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)First things first: the Wii Points Card allows you to purchase classic video games from the NES, Super NES, Nintendo 64, Sega Genesis, and Turbo Grafix 16 consoles and download them onto your Wii console.Nintendo has many great old games available already and is adding more regularly (generally about once a week).
Basic information:100 Wii Points roughly equals 1 dollar.You should never pay more for a Wii Points card because you can buy the points directly from Nintendo at a rate of 100 to the dollar.On the flip side if you can get these cards cheaper (and sometimes you can buy them at a bit of a discount) you get a great deal.
What's available:There are new games being released all the time.I have a wishlist a mile long for these games, but some of my favorites include Zelda, the original Castlevania, Ninja Gaiden, Donkey Kong Country, Golden Axe, Super Mario Brothers and Super Mario World, and Mario 64.Again--almost every week there's something new.A current list is available on Nintendo's website.
Game Cost:The cost for classic games varies a little but is fairly uniform.NES games start at 500 points (at this time there is only one game that I'm aware of for the NES that costs more).Most Super NES, Genesis, and TG 16 games cost around 800 points, and N64 games run about 1000.Considering a nostalgia trip used to sometimes cost as much as the original game (the original Zelda used to run about $50, and that's if you had an old Nintendo to run it on) these games are a great deal.
Why buy the card?: I purchase most of my points directly from Nintendo without using these cards.So what purpose do they serve?Simple--they're great for gifts.I love that these come in 2000 point increments--it means my friends and family have a cheap gift idea for me and can give me something I'll really enjoy rather than trying to pick out a game for me themselves.And of course if you've got a gift card or discount for your favorite retailer you can pick them up cheaper.It's a great alternative to just buying the points on your Wii.
Overall this is a great way to get your hands on some classic games.You may prefer to buy them directly on the Wii (as I do), but keep this option in mind when special occasions roll around and people are asking what to get you!
