Is there an expiration date for the codes you get from buying games with Club Nintendo coins? I don't have a 3DS but I will one day and wouldn't mind having Kid Icarus to play then.

Rhythm Thief appears to be $20 on the NA eShop now.

I'm away from my 3DS. Is this is a sale or a permanent price drop?

I got a soft spot for Revenge of the Gator, as it's probably the first pinball video game I played. It's pretty fun and cute.

It also has the best title screen.

Kirby is the perennial go-to for that sort of thing, but the only Kirby games on the eShop are the NES/Game Boy versions, so they might be a little outdated.

I think I was 4 or so when I beat Kirby's Dreamland, it's easy and short enough that it might be worth a shot.

It's weird that Wii NA had TG16 but Wii U NA doesn't

And Genesis/Megadrive, and third party games on NES/SNES that aren't Capcom or Konami. Granted those aren't entirely up to Nintendo but they should really be making a better effort to get a hold of that stuff because as it is the VC catalog is pretty poor.

Basically I just want to play Sky Kid and Bubble Bobble without booting into Wii mode.

That's interesting because it once again shoots holes in people's theories about the whole DK/Rare copyright situation. Wonder if Diddy Kong Racing will show up.

Probably not since that's an especially weird case since it has Banjo and Conker, but we'll probably see the DS remake that didn't look any good.

NA got Kirby's Return to Dream Land 5 months after everyone else and it was the first Wii game we got since January, if you are holding your breath each week for news on Wii VC updates you will drive yourself insane.

That may be true for traditional Kirby games but both of these games are "barely-related spinoff with Kirby slapped on" games, so you can't really categorise them in that way.

On the NX, there will be a virtual console and it will be the greatest VC ever, on day 1 it will have all of the previous two VC's games. I am very confident this will happen

I too am confident in this and that they won't tease out a release of Super Mario Bros 3 for months
