60Hz field edit

There should be a field in this table specifying whether the game is the 60hz American version or the PAL 50hz version

Why?

To help people make a more informed purchase if they want. Finding this information on the official Nintendo of Europe sites is on a game by game basis which takes ages if you are looking for multiple games. Also the site only states that the game is either the American version, or the European version with which they also outright lie in some cases that the games were optimized. For example the page of 'A Link To The Past' states that the game runs at it's native 50Hz conversion. But the animations and the music have been adjusted to match the other releases. ALTTP was one of those games where they slowed it down and called it a day, everything is slower in every single aspect except the music, because the music chip inside the Super Nintendo was never adjusted for the PAL systems, so the music always runs at the exact same speed regardless of version or (if you removed the lockout) region. Ofcourse there are also the unique cases such as Balloon Fight. The ROM used for the PAL Wii U VC is the original 50Hz version but sped up to run at the same speed as the original version. However this introduces the fact that music is too fast now, and there is still a judder being produced because every fifth frame is repeated because the game is still internally being renderd at 50Hz. Another unique example is Super Metroid where the game originally was partially optimized back in the day by adjusting Samus's speed to being at almost the same speed as the other regions, but leaving everything else at the slower speed. The WiiU version however produces a new problem by completely breaking the music in the Wrecked Ship. It's skips parts, than jumps back, plays the different instruments in incorrect order, loops incorrectly and whatnot. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.241.227.224 (talk) 19:29, 24 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

Wii list edit

Uh is it just me or the Wii list invalid? It was there before but now it's gone! I recommend they bring the Wii list back soon or there's no reason left to keep it out. I'm not good with tables so I'll stay out of it. I'm just concerned about this article that's suppose to be up to date, not at the time when the Wii list doesn't exist since it's part of the Wii U Nintendo eShop.

Please address my concern. Thanks
