Anyone downloaded F-Zero yet?

 

I just did and the borders are very very tiny if even there at all, they were way bigger on the SNES I dont know if it running in 50Hz since I have never played an NTSC F-Zero. can anyone confirm this?

I was considering downloading something, but theres really no need considering sports, play and zelda, so I'm gonna refrain from even using the VC yet, because I'll just end up buying lots of stuff I'll never play.

Anyway, what are you playing DKC with? I'm curious as to how it plays with both the VC and GC controllers, and which is better in your opinion.

When you bought the points, did you use a credit card or buy them from a shop? If you used a credit card, did you at any point worry about how secure it was?

I use a Classic Controller. I purchased a 2000 point card from the store where I bought my Wii.

Anyone else think the Classic Controller is really comfortable?

I was actually surprised to find it isn't all that bad to hold.

 

Dunno if I should download some VC games or not...too many games to play already. But, damn, it's so tempting!

So it's going to get updated each friday (as opposed to Monday in US).That's cool.

I won't be purchasing any games yet as I have no Wii Points. I'll have to wait until either christmas when I get some or when NOE let us use stars to buy points.
