Every week should be an EarthBound kind of week.

I haven't held out a lot of hope for the console and don't plan on getting one unless they receive more backing from other companies, but if they keep this up and release more rare titles, perhaps it'll boost their sales.
I hope EB sells well. I think it will. For people who want to play a legit version, but don't have an SNES and don't want to dump $200+ for a cart (which are rare, of course), this is probably the best way to do it. Of course, this hinges on one having a WiiU, and I doubt anyone will get it just to play a digital copy of a rare SNES game. Either way, though, it's good to see Nintendo FINALLY rerelease it officially.
