North Pole News: Special Christmas Treat on the Way for Wii

This year Santa is getting some competition from another jolly guy with a
big belly and a red cap. We're talking about video game icon Mario(TM), of
course. As a special holiday surprise for Wii(TM) owners from Nintendo, the
original Super Mario Bros. (TM) game for the Nintendo Entertainment System(R)
will appear in the Wii Shop Channel and be downloadable for 500 Wii Points.
Wii owners with a high-speed Internet connection can redeem Wii Points to
download the game. Wii Points can be purchased in the Wii Shop Channel or at
retail outlets.

The classic game will make Christmas morning extra special, just as it did
more than two decades ago. Super Mario Bros. reigns as perhaps the best-known
and most-played game on any video game system in history. More than 40.2
