Super Smash Bros. Brawl, the game people on the internet can't stop touching themselves in the special place about, will include access to trial versions of Nintendo classics such as Ice Climber, Super Mario Bros. and The Legend of Zelda. From the title's official site:

"Several memorable characters compete for brawl supremacy—that’s Super Smash Brothers Brawl in a nutshell. But what about the past fights for each of those characters? What were they like? It may sound impossible, but you can experience those battles in Brawl as well! That’s right, for the first time ever, you can play trial versions of these games by the miracle of Virtual Console! That’s what Masterpieces is! Here you can relive the greatest battles of the biggest star characters through demo versions of their games. Here are some of the titles you can expect to see available in Brawl. Crazy, isn’t it?!"

Sounds impossible. And it's definitely crazy. Super Smash Bros. Brawl releases in Europe on March 9.
