it has like little SD memory cards you can add and a little tiny one built in. The games cost money between 3-10 bucks I think per game or set and they are saved on the card

That would be cool. Ah 3-10 bucks? That isnt bad but why spend the money when I got the machine collecting dust in my closet if I wanted to play that game again. Are their any perks to downloading it again?

Dunno if there is any perks to getting it dloaded, maybe they've upped the res on them or something similar to what 360 does with original xbox games.

well the Wii isnt "next-gen" graphix and never claimed to be, many of the graphix will look just like gamecube. its innovation with the motion controller and the library of classic games that is its selling point
