Does it look like Stars will eventually = Wii Points?

*Purchasing of Wii Points in the Stars Catalogue will be available at a later date.

Bit of an eventuality really? Looking forward to Stars actually being worth more than one-off, pot-luck reddies for the odd game on the catalogue. As long as it's a reasonable conversion - unlike points you get with credit cards etc.

What would people say is acceptable conversion? Generally, you get 250 Stars per game... how would that equate to a VC title?

I don't think the conversion rate really matters. You get the stars free... so *any* points for them would be a bonus

I doubt they will get too generous, loads of people seem to have thousands of stars because the 'Nintendo goodies' available were so cack.

Thats great news as I doubt I would ever spend my 5200 stars on anything tbh but now all I need is Super Metroid to be released on VC

I would guess 5 Stars would be equal to 1 Wii Point...

really i would ex[pect a 1 to 1 exchqnge it virtually costs them nothing tto give the VC games out. It might not seem it now but if they keep releasing the ames like they are by this time next year there will so many that even 10k stars will only buy a tiny amount of game available.

remind me please, where can I find the stars? is it just games or games and the console its self?

You get the stars in any nintendo product both hardware and software. They should be on a leaflet inside the boxes
