I just thought it would be cool if the Big N gave away a VC game to Wii owners for the holidays.

It could be something everyone has played like Mario Bros. or Duck Hunt or something big like Smash Bros. 64 to help the already enourmous hype for Brawl. FREE may be a stretch. They could do a game that costs a dollar, but your dollar goes to charity or Toys for Tots or something.

What do you think???

If they did do that, they would choose one game that everyone gets. So they would have to make it a game that is not on the VC yet. i dont think nintendo would just give you free points.

first off it costs nintendo nothing to send u a vc game, if it is made by them there is no loyalty fee either, so it wouldnt be that dificult to send us somthing that costs them nothing to send because its saved on a friking server and they dont even need to pay for a disk to put it on

Who the heck voted No? Free stuff is awesome and while it's not going to happen, I do think it would be cool.

Nintendo is unfortunately too greedy to do something like this. But it sure would be nice to wake up Christmas morning and find Super Mario Bros is available to download for free for the day.

By making it just one day they could cut off too many lost profits. It's the least they could do for making a killing on us with overpirced hardware and things like $25 for a piece of plastic gun, know what I'm saying?

yes but it would probably be an NES game(lower value...500 points) that is actually a horrible game. whenever something is free, its most likely to be cheap.....unless they are really generous..

I wish Nintendo would do something like this. If they did give 1 free VC game i really want it to be SSB for the Nintendo 64.

But the charity idea was a good one. They could write it off on their taxes!

I'd rather have an awesome update. If they gave a free VC game it would probably be bad and no one would play it. Also, it would just take up space.

Halarious Christmas Vacation quote! I don't think VC is the jelly of the month though.
