I just hate that Nintendo feels the need to keep the prices on these games so steep when I think these very same games might garner more sales and attention if Nintendo just made a few changes to the Virtual Console in it's entirety. $10 for a game that is almost 20 years old is just a little much if you ask me.īut this game has been on the most wanted list for so long, that most people wouldn't care if they charged $20. $10.00 is hard to swallow for a NES game though, especially for one I will likely never really play.

How many suckers are gonna support these outrageous prices!?Īlthough I'm almost tempted to buy it just out of curiosity. The player's guide is also optimized for easy viewing on the Wii U GamePad.

For example, Dungeons & Dragons: Chronicles of Mystara was originally listed as a June 18 release, but its release is now TBA.ĮarthBound has also received a new rating from the ESRB. These listing are, unfortunately, not completely reliable. However, an official announcement has yet to be made.

The classic Super Nintendo RPG is currently listed on Nintendo of America’s website, as well as the European eShop with a release date of July 18. EarthBound may be showing up on the Wii U eShop today, July 18.
