I didn't know it was happening, woo-hoo!

Metroid: Zero Mission, the remake of the first game in the series, is coming to Wii U's Virtual Console tomorrow. It'll cost $7.99 and utilize off-screen play, should you want to play on the pooper (assuming your console is close to the bathroom, like any self-respecting person).

I had forgotten this was in the works, so I'm pleasantly surprised. I enjoyed revisiting Metroid Fusion on the Wii U, and recently wanted to play this one but couldn't find my Game Boy Advance cartridge. In my dusty brain attic I remember this one being great, but I'll be able to confirm that tomorrow. Wish I could play it on my 3DS though!
