Remember in addition to having downloadable only video games,
Nintendo also sells games at retail outlets. That way families
can support the physical copy movement, and their local
economies. It is wise to refrain from purchasing any of these
products until Family Friendly Gaming publishes a review.
Physical copies of Virtual Console games can be found on older
video game machines, and they are usually cheaper in physical
form (and more enjoyable played on the original systems).
