Nintendo will allow US Wii owners to download Super Mario Bros. (NES), Toe Jam & Earl (Megadrive) and R-Type (Turbografx) for free on Christmas Day as part of a festive gift to its customers, according to internet rumours.

This would be an amazing promotional gift for Nintendo fans in the US, but we're sceptical of the chances. Nintendo hasn't announced anything about it and no notifications have come through to our US Wii's here at CVG; what would be the point of not promoting such a fantastic give-away?

Despite our scepticism, CVG has contacted Nintendo and is currently awaiting feedback. Check back for the official line in a short while.
