Just as fun as the original Wii version that I played since Christmas 2011. The controls were just as good on the Wii U Virtual Console version and the graphics were given that extra polish of 1080p as opposed to 480p on the standard Wii. If you are picking a game to get off the Wii U eShop before it closes on March 27th, 2023, this is the game to get. You'll have a blast with it.
