Hi guys - I just checked the Wii shopping channel today and found out that I'm entitled to a free NES game as I was one of the unlucky people that bought the Internet Channel with my hard earned cash before it was made free.  
 
So which NES game should I get? I already have Super Mario Bros. 3 so I'm thinking maybe Double Dragon (although I hear its like 20 mins long? is this right?) or The Legend of Zelda - good choices? Any other recommendations are welcome!
 
Anyone else that bought the channel and wants to claim their free game has to do it before December 31st! 
 
Also kudos to Nintendo for doing this!

This is really old news, but still glad that Nintendo did it.

Sorry if this is old news! Not sure when Nintendo did this - my Wii has been offline for months and only just got it back on

Well yeah it's pretty old but hey, merry christmas to you :P

I spent mine on Castlevania.

Hmm, I wasn't actually aware of this. And there was me thinking I'd got a bargain by getting the Internet Channel before they made people start paying for it. As far as games to get go Legend of Zelda is cool, although so far my favourite game I've downloaded from the virtual console has been Super Mario Bros.

I played double dragon on the nes, and it was very enjoyable, and not 20 mins long. Even as a pro, you'll take some hours to reach the end. 
 
And don't expect it to do it right away. 
 
Also there is a vs mode to the game. 
  
This is a very good video about it...
