RE: Team Nintendo!! Join Today *Choosing Final Co-Leader*
I'm wondering why I didn't notice this earlier. I'm posting my replies to posts in the entire thread, so lots of quotes coming:

You know, if you have questions I can pretty much give a list of every Metroid game and what it's about and why I think it's good or bad.
I don't need a list, but what are your thoughts on Metroid II?
Meaty said:
Get Metroid Prime Trilogy if you can find it
A very big if. I barely got my used copy for $55.

And since we're still waiting for Pikmin 3, we won't see the Wii 2 for a while.
I have a theory on that, or at least the Pikmin part. Near the beginning of the Iwata Asks interview about the 3DS, there was this:
Pikmin 3DS?

Speaking of Virtual Consoles, the 3DS has a Virtual Console. So far, Super Mario Land had been confirmed for it
And Zelda: Link's Awakening! :O
Meaty said:
I must know what this is...! There are many possibilities but the most logical thing would be an already-expected Metroid II one the virtual console...
I didn't think of a Metroid II VC release, but it could possibly be Dread, if it still exists.

Also I got 2000 Wii points for Christmas and was wondering what was good.
As Meaty said, Super Metroid and Ocarina of Time are fantastic choices, but if you don't have a Classic or Gamecube controller, hold off on both, as they won't be playable. And even if you do own the aforementioned controllers, you might still want to hold off on Ocarina of Time if you plan on getting a 3DS, with the remake/enhanced port on its way.

Is Black and White going to able to be played on the DS?
dmaster said:
The 3DS IS backwards compatible, so it can play ALL DS games. Black/White will be able to be played on ANY DS system.
And it apparently won't be like the crippled GBA backwards compatibility of the DS and DS Lite, where you couldn't do any kind of communication between systems. This means that the Live Caster/Xtransceiver will work on the 3DS, as well.
