Has anyone else been buying the Virtual Console Points Card? I bought one today for my friend for Christmas. Which brings me to my next point... Don't buy one at Best Buy because they are $23 plus tax. I just bought it because I was already at Best Buy and I don't really care about the extra $3. I just wanted to give a heads up to everyone else. Personally I really think the only purpose of this is to use it as I did, which is a gift card for the Wii. Otherwise, don't waste your time buying one of these especially at Best Buy.
P.S. They hire anyone at Best Buy. Today, when I went to purchase the card for my friend the guy at the register asked me what it was and I told him. Then I had to explain for the next three minutes what the Virtual Console exactly was. I don't mean something simple like "Basically means you can download classics from NES, SNES, N64, TurboGrafix and Genesis". I was telling him the ins-and-outs "Yes, you can download the games to the console.... Well if the games have no more space on the console they can all be transferred to an SD, but it will only work with the console it was download from.... Wii Points is like Nintendo money...etc.". It was terrible. It's like you work at Best Buy you should know some of this at least pretend you know, by repeating Xbox Live information. Same things happens at GameStop all the time.
So that's my story. Even though you didn't ask for it, you got it.
