Having never played either Donkey Kong Country or Super Mario World (I feel ashamed), I don't know which one to buy first from the Virtual Console channel... Need advice...
I plan to get both in time, but just want one now. I'm thinking Donkey Kong Country. I was going to get Ecco the Doplhin, Gunstar Heroes and Street Fighter too.
Super mario worldowns the crap out of donkey kong but their both good. Im probably just still mad at rare for going to the dark side of games (Micros**t) All anger aside, SMM is far longer and more varied and fun.
I'll go check which ones use the Wii remote, as I don't have the VC classic remote control thing...SonicBooom

yeah i have no classic controller either so i stay away from SNES games for now, however i do download N64 games because they work great with the gamecube controller. here are some great games that i have downloaded that only use the wiimote: Kirby NES, Gunstar Heroes GEN, KId Icarus NES, and ristar GEN. u cant go wrong with any of these games.if u do have a gamecube controller tho, get starfox 64, great buy

P.S. gamecube controller sucks with SNES, NES, or GEN because of lack of support for analog stick. you have to use the dumb dpad at teh bottom of teh controllerÂ

 Super Mario World is a lot longer, and has a lot more to do. But Donkey Kong Country is a good game as well. You can't play them with the Wiimote, but you can use a GameCube controller as previous posters have noted. You said you were thinking of getting Street Fighter. That game is absolutely horrific using the GameCube controller. I would recommend waiting on that until you get your hands on a *klassic* controller. As for Donkey Kong Countery, and Super Mario World, I have not played them with a GameCube controller, but I'm sure it has to be at least somewhat better than with Street Fighter (it literaly can't get any worse)...

Donkey Kong Country was a bit gimmicky in the graphics department. It's not a bad game, but in terms of variation in gameplay and interesting things to do, it doesn't hold a candle to Super Mario World.

Get DKC first then, but get Mario before Ecco and SF, SF will release a newer version anyways.
Check this site out and watch the 30 second movei and see which one appeals to you more.
EDIT: sorry there was no site, here... Now there is.

Ahh, thanks for the website :) ..................................... I've got a GameCube controller, so that shouldn't be a problem with the SNES VC games, although using that controller means I'll have wires in the way again... ha ha... I need to get an extention cable, as on it's own the GameCube controller's cable is too short for where my Wii is (up above my TV)... Still not got any VC games. I'm thining Super Mario World or Gunstar Heroes now...
