Following the announcement of Super NES games coming to the Nintendo Wii Virtual Console, Gamers Daily News provides their opinion in the form of a review. Excerpt below:
"Ultimately, the 800 Nintendo Point ($8 USD) price is hard to justify. While the game isn?t impossible to beat, it is indeed hard and has more than a few cheap situations that will frustrate some players. There are those who would say this is part of the game?s old school charm, and if you?re in that group then you?ll love this. But to everyone else, I think you?d do much better to look up other platformers on the Virtual Console and WiiWare service, there are some rather good ones in the same basic price range as Super Star Wars and those would be a better way to spend your money."

Rebelscum Breast Cancer Awareness Charity Patch Posted By Philip on November 25, 2014: Thanks to everybody that ordered patches. I sent a check for $1,600.00 to the National Breast Cancer Foundation on Monday. While it's not as much as I hoped for, it's still very much appreciated. They will remain for sale in the store for anybody that still wishes to purchase them. Details after the jump.
