As Nintendo unveiled its plan to bring previously released games back into release with the Wii's Virtual Console service, the first thing that came to most gamer's minds was the ability to play their favorite games from the Nintendo, Super Nintendo or Nintendo 64 systems. A favorite racing game from the Nintendo 64 that a number of people thought of was that alternative to Mario Kart 64, the light-hearted yet intense snowboard racing game, Snowboard Kids, developed by Racdym and published by Atlus. Snowboard Kids went on to become a Player's Choice game and even have a sequel for the same system a year later. In light of this petition, we the signers of this petition ask that you, Atlus, please consider the potential in releasing Snowboard Kids or even Snowboard Kids 2 on Wii Virtual Console for the chance of many fans to relive the earlier times of getting together with friends and playing an old favorite. Where you raced to the finish over snow, ice, grass, or quicksand, while performing unique tricks, firing attacks or dropping pans on each other, or to allow others to experience this classic who may have overlooked it in the past, or to simply gauge the persistence of the popularity of this series over the 11 years it has been around.

July 21, 2010

The persistence of interest in Snowboard Kids remains evident through the messages I receive daily. I am currently organizing these requests to prepare a formal communication for the licensing team at Atlus.

The momentum behind this request for Snowboard Kids on the Virtual Console has exceeded my initial expectations. It is encouraging to see such sustained passion for a title that brings back fond memories for so many players. We are now preparing to ensure this collective interest is formally communicated to the team at Atlus.

I would at least like Snowboard Kids 1. I haven't played it in years since I was forced to throw away my N64 (that was a sad time DX) but I thought it was awesome and the music was great, too! It was also really freaking hard! The farhest I got to was the last race in the autumn village and I could not beat that Shinobin guy! Argh!

Man I loved the music in this game. Spent so many hours playing split screen with my brother back in the day. Really hope they put it on the eshop soon.
