N64 Paper Mario on Japanese VC, no show in U.S. yet

Posted Jul 10, 2007 at 2:11AM by QJ Staff Listed in: Wii Tags: N64, Nintendo

As always, the Japanese get first dibs on everything good, and Paper Mario is no exception. Gamers from the Land of the Rising Sun will be pleased to learn that their Virtual Console now includes the option to purchase and download N64's Paper Mario.

U.S. gamers won't get the same deal - well, not yet. But at least it confirmed the rumor that got each and every Nintendo Wii owner hyped up: Paper Mario on the VC! Yay!

As consolation, 3 new games are up for grabs in the U.S. Virtual Console - Mach Rider, Air "Zonk", and Yoshi - which we reported on yesterday.

UK Virtual Console subscribers may pray for Paper Mario coming their way, but there's little chance that it will be included in this Friday's UK Virtual Console update.
