The titles available on March 25 are as follows (with their Wii Points "price" included):

  • Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as King - 1500
  • Dr Mario & Saikin Bokumetsu - 1000
  • Pokemon Ranch Channel - 1000
  • Lonpos - 1000

Looks like a healthy list, but where oh where are people going to store them?
