Prepaid cards contain points for use with the Wii Virtual Console

The Wii Virtual Console is the name of Nintendo's video game download service for the Wii. Through the Wii Shop Channel, Wii owner will be able to purchase and download re-released titles from previous Nintendo video game systems, as well as formerly competing consoles. Games are bought using Wii Points, which can be added to your account with a credit card, or by purchasing a prepaid card worth a set amount of points. In America and the United Kingdom, only cards worth 2000 points are available. An account may have no more that 100,000 points attached to it at any given time. Purchased games can be played with the Classic Controller attachment, or with select games, the Wii remote turned sideways or a Nintendo GameCube controller. All NES games can be played with nothing but a Wii Remote necessary.
