They're downloads. You purchase them through the Wii store, download them to the Wii and play them.

Thanks! I had a guy at a game store explain it to me today.

So you can't hook up to the internet with a special adapter? Gotta love all the extras I have to buy.

I bought Paper Mario and Mario Kart 64.

Mario Kart 64 doesn't seem to control correctly on VC. Turning during power slides seems way too touchy. I don't know if something got screwed up in the translation, or that's just how it always was and I'm just too used to Mario Kart DS.

I need to find an N64 and Mario Kart just to compare them.

There's a wifi card in it. If you have wireless internet, there's nothing extra you have to buy.

QFT, I'm having problems updating my Wii right now because it wont download via the wireless connection. It says its connected and all is fine but when I go to download it cant ever complete it. Wish I could hardwire it to see if that would fix the problem, but no.
