Video Buying Zelda -- NES -- on the Wii's Virtual Console service

Video Games – First in the virtual shopping cart: The Legend of Zelda. After a brief download (with Mario waiting screen), we fired up our new Zelda channel and played what appeared to be a pixel perfect replica of the 1986 NES classic.
