But whether the system ultimately proves as revolutionary as its predecessor, a new Wii U beneath your TV means access to Nintendo's Virtual Console, and innumerable classic titles vying to be downloaded on day one. Take a look at our picks of the Virtual Console titles that, if you haven't played them to death already, should be taking up storage on your new console immediately.

Haven't bought anything yet from the shop. Waiting for more titles to come out.

Off topic: My Wii U keeps freezing. :(

It's kinda crappy that you have to go into the Wii virtual console to download and play virtual console games. Wish they'd just made the feature available from the Wii U home.

Pretty good list here though. The NES and the SNES era had so many great games... I still play The Legend of Zelda every year. It's still my favorite game of all time... just a classic.
