Both of these titles can be obtained now for 500 Wii points.
That word “favorite” seems to be thrown around a little loosely by Nintendo’s marketing team. Sure, Bases Loaded was awesome at the time, but baseball games have kind of evolved a lot since then. And Yoshi’s Cookie? It’s was a generic puzzler then, and it’s a generic puzzler now.
