Nintendo has upped the ante, and added one of my favorite games to their Wii Online marketing place.
But why am I so excited, what could they have possibly added to twist my panties into a knot? Wave Race that's what. Yeah, you heard me, I said Wave Race, it's available today for a mere 1,000 pts.
Three titles went up today, but I'm only really concerned with Wave Race being on the Wii Shop Channel. The games went live at 9am PDT.
From the release:
If you aren't as excited as I am about being able to revisit Wave Race through the virtual console to relive the game that I swear the jet ski mini game in DOA: Xtreme Beach Volleyball wishes it could be when it grows up, then I'll be killing you shortly because you sir are no gamer, you're a freakin' pretender to the throne... and it would be my honor to stealth kill you.

From the release:
Wave Race® 64 (Nintendo® 64, 1-2 players, rated E for Everyone, 1,000 Wii Points): Take to the waves on your own personal watercraft and experience some of the best water effects in video game history. Choose one of four characters, each with his/her own unique abilities and style, and master the game's excellent controls. Make your way through nine courses, each with its own challenges. If the ramps, mines and hairpin turns aren't enough, you'll also have to deal with varying weather conditions that can make the water choppy or cover the course with fog. And if you ever feel like taking a break from racing, then try out Stunt Mode to polish your skills by pulling off handstands, rolls and more. Get good enough and you might even be able to ride a dolphin-just don't get seasick.
