it's backwards compatible to GCN games, but the only thing i hate is that u have to manually turn off the system; cant use the Wii remote to turn it off
.
one of the main reason i got Wii is because for SSBB n i knew the system was gonna be sold out because of the casual market Nintendo was aiming for, which obviously worked! Plus, ive always been a Nintendo fan sense NES. I still have a few NES games i grew up with in my time machine bag.
