Finally, a game I want to purchase on VC: Super Metroid

Joystiq reports new VC games this week. While Shinobi III was an awesome game, I'm fine with whipping up emulators to play it. My problem today is, that while I have many of the games still, my Genesis and Super Nintendo have long disappeared from unreturned loans many years ago.

Super Metroid is one of those games that you want to play immediately when you feel like it. Screw booting up the PC; just put me in the game now. I'll definitely be picking it up for this very reason. Even though the price is damned ridiculous. It just sucks that I have the Super Metroid cart sitting in my closet, and I still have to pay $8 for the game to be on my Wii.
