VIRTUAL CONSOLE

Today, I'm just going to do a quick rundown of all Mario games released on the virtual console for the Wii, Wii U, and 3DS. Not too much to say here, as, as far as I am aware, they are all mostly exact emulations of the original games with little to no variance.

These games include: the original arcade games Donkey Kong, Donkey Kong Jr., Donkey Kong Jr. Math, Donkey Kong 3, and Mario Bros.; the mainline games Super Mario Bros., Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels, Super Mario Bros. 2, Super Mario Bros. 3, Super Mario Land, Super Mario World, Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins, and Super Mario 64; the Donkey Kong games Donkey Kong Country, Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest, Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble, all three Donkey Kong Lands, Donkey Kong 64, DK: King of Swing, and DK: Jungle Climber; the Yoshi games Tetris Attack, Yoshi's Story, Yoshi Touch & Go, and Yoshi's Island DS; the Wario games Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3, Wario Land II, Wario Land 3, Wario Land 4, Wario Ware Inc. Mega Microgame$, Wario Ware Touched!, and Wario: Master of Disguise; the sports games Super Mario Kart, Mario Kart 64, Mario Kart: Super Circuit, Mario Kart DS, Mario Tennis, Mario Tennis: Power Tour, NES Open Tournament Golf, Mario Golf, Mario Golf: Advance Tour, and Mario Hoops 3-on-3; the RPGs Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, Paper Mario, Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, and Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time; the party games Mario Party 2, Mario Party Advance, and Mario Party DS; the random games Wrecking Crew and Wrecking Crew '98, Dr. Mario, Yoshi and Yoshi's Cookie, Wario's Woods, Mario's Picross, Picross 2, and Super Picross, Game & Watch Gallery 1, 2, 3, and 4, Mario vs. Donkey Kong 1 and 2, Mario Pinball Land; the Super Mario Advance series and Super Mario 64 DS; and Super Mario Bros.
