Virtual Console: Can i save (PLEASE REPLY ASAP!)

I have downloaded super mario bros and super mario bros 3 and im wondering whether i can save my progress. (otherwise ill have to do it again and again.)

Please reply (sent at 21:12 approx)

I think with the older systems on the VC (NES, SNES, Genesis, etc.) if you press the Home button the Wii does an automatic save state - meaning that the next time you start up the game you will be exactly where you left off. It basically treats it as though you just paused the game and came back to it later. That means that after you start from that save state, that save state is erased. So if you get a game over, it's game over.

Does this make any sense? If I need to clarify, just say so and I will.

I understand, but one question-

When i turn off my wii, will the 'save' point still be there so i can continue?
