Honestly - how many people are going to pirate it? I don't know if the latest updated killed WiiWare piracy, but I don't think so.
For those who don't know: Groups have been releasing WiiWare and VC games for quite some time now.

They didn't pirated VC or WiiWare. They just instaled emulators on the Wii, and they use roms. But they can't pirate WiiWare games.

I think 10 dollars might be alittle high i was thinking it would be 500-800(comparable to a nes or snes game).You could download a N64 game for the price but truth be told this will be a brand new game from the ground up so it might be worth it.

...and to your comment about piracy,let them do what they want it doesnt effect me.I wil buy mine because i have the money and i want to support what i buy.To each his own

2.1 - I disagree...
The old NES games have already made their money back on their initial release, so money made now is residual. This is a new game made now, so I don't mind paying a little extra for development costs. If this does well, maybe we will get more retro goodness.

No-one was going to pay more for an 8-bit. I wish it was 16-bit =|

But it's going to be really fun.
