There were only two things that sucked about it coming back.
1) I had to redo my whole internet set up, which meant uninstalling and reinstalling my Wi-Fi attachment (I have the Nintendo brand one) and trying to get my Wii and PC to like each other again. It wasn't as big of a pain in the ass as it was the first time I got it to work, but it still sucked.
2) Redownload EVERY VC game I downloaded....... and I had quite a bit. Sadly, I would up charging another 2000 points and downloading Neutopia 2 and Landstalker.
On the whole, I'd say it's still worth it to have free repairs and actually be able to play the damn thing.
