I bought a wii points card before I knew I needed to buy the wii classic controllers (or use camecube ones) to play the classic downloadable games. I plan to download Super Mario Brothers and Street Fighter, but a question occurred to me.

I know there is limited space on the Wii, so you can only download so much stuff (only have so many channels). If I later delete Street Fighter for example to grab something else and want it back down the road, do I have to pay for it again with more Wii points or does Nintendo keep track of what games I purchased and allow me to download it again without paying twice?

Just want to make sure I know what I'm getting into. At least with Steam for example, they know which games are already purchased and you can re-download them forever.

From everything I've heard, once you pay for the game it is tied to your exact machine so if you delete it, you can redownload it again without paying.
