Hey this is Dan with a review of Nintendo's Wii Points. These point little gift cards are available nationwide wherever electronics are sold also available online and also available directly from Wii service which in fact may sometimes be cheaper than actually buying this at the store because you actually have to pay tax. You actually have to find a store that carries it. Sometimes the store even jacks it higher than its currency value if you will. Two thousand points is approximately $20 but I've seen this sold for as much as $24.95 plus tax and you know once again you can buy this on the Wii service with a credit card for $20. But what it is the physical item is just nothing more than basically a gift card with a unique code on the back. This one's used so yours out there don't get your hopes up. You can go and scratch that off enter it in online and you can use this to purchase a wide variety of items namely the most popular old Nintendo games. Not only Nintendo but Super Nintendo Sega Genesis Sega and a whole slew all the way up to N64 including popular titles such as Mario Car Legend of Zelda 64 Mario 64. So there's a lot of popular items and in fact if I turn on this TV I'm ready actually set up at the Nintendo Wii store and we'll take a look at how they interface this. Basically this is the Wii Shop Channel as you can see here. Up for sale here we have you can see the Nintendo Super Mario Brothers 3 for 500 points. Right up here to the left you got new releases such as Ninja Gate N3 and Fantasy Star. By the way they do release new titles every Monday into this service. Basically games range from 500 points for Nintendo games 800 points for Super Nintendo games and then 1000 points for Nintendo 64 titles. So at 2000 points you'll be able to get roughly four Nintendo games or two N64 games. Basically you can just go through virtual console up here and you can take a look at for example popular titles. Again this is all through your Wii. All you have to do is enter this into your account which is tethered basically to your Wii and you can go through here and look at all the popular titles. For example Super Mario World I already downloaded. Once you download it what happens is it goes into your little channel selection and if we go back to the channel selection you'll be able to see in our Wii menu that lo and behold once you download it it shows up for example right here. Click on that you can start that and you have yourself a 1991 opportunity to relive the past in Super Mario World. You do need a classic controller though. But this is the Wii Points Card. Highly worth it especially if you're going to go retro-gaming a bit. Again you might not need to buy this in a store. You could just go ahead and buy the points directly online especially if you have a hard time finding this. On the flip side in stores running a discount you may be able to actually get this cheaper than its face value. This is the end of my review of the Nintendo Wii 2000 Point Card.
