I just heard about this today, but apparently it's been up since Monday. 
For anyone that ever downloads NES games for Wii, this will be one to grab.  I haven't checked in a while actually but I am thinking this might be the only NES game up there that wasn't actually released here.

The first time I played this game, I was in heaven because it was like playing SMB all over again with new levels.... then, I realized it was about 10 times more difficult (and frustrating)! Great game though.

It's the same as the one on All Stars (though with NES graphics because it's the original version)

Doki is the Japanese game that our Mario 2 was based upon, they didn't really get our Mario 2 unitl it was re-released there as Super Mario USA I believe

Yeah, I felt the same way when Leonk made me a repro a few years ago. Part of my love of NES gaming is the nostalgia, but I don't think any "new" NES game I ever play for the rest of my life will make me feel like a 10 year old kid the way playing through SMB2J for the first time did.

My mantra, as worded by SamSpade on 06/12/12:
I don't resell to fund my collection, I don't treat this hobby like a second job, I don't care if my collection is worth ten bucks or ten thousand because I never plan on selling it. Seriously, what does the value have to do with anything if you never plan on selling? Speculation doesn't mean jack shit to me at this point, I just want to play my nes games...
