Super Star Wars (SNES) coming to Wii Virtual Console!

Post by Lead_Pilot »

Actually, the 1st game is here already. The other 2 are coming soon.

I remember Super Star Wars...man those were the days! :)
I've been waiting for these games to come to wii for a while.

I'm going to buy it tommorow (I need another points card first). Anyone else thinking of buying them?
I think this is easily one of the best star wars announcements this year...

Yes! I've been thinking about buying these again for the SNES, but haven't been able to find them. I'll definitely be getting them, now.

This was before my time, but it could be pretty good :)

But pretty hard. I never owned any of the "Super" trilogy (although I did own Super Star Wars' predecessor, "Star Wars"), but they have a reputation for being notoriously difficult.

Yes, I remember playing one of them at friends who still had a Snes. Man that was hard! I couldn't even get past the sandcrawler. (oh wait, I did, but then I had to go)
Unfortunately, I've spent all my remaining points 4 weeks ago. Ah well.

Yes... especially fighting dark troopers (or something very much like them, they were flying, robot Stormtroopers) at the end of the third level in the Empire Strikes back, which I'd say is the hardest of the three, as I've beat both of the other two several times.

not so much as hard, but just very repetitive. like for instance, when you start out in the dune sea, you have to continually kill a certain amount of bugs to pass, then again and again until you get to the boss bug. then you have to continually kill a certain amount of bugs to pass, etc.

I'm still holding out for Rouge Squadren N64 and Pod racer. I might get this game though.
