Official Wii Virtual Console Thread

It's a completely new version, too. This is one thing they've done right.

NINTENDO- SONY LOVES PS3 OWNERS MORE THAN NINTENDO LOVES WII OWNERS. PROVE ME WRONG. please

You know, I dont own a Wii, I dont plan on getting one any time soon, but I just have to say this one thing...

I cant believe that Joust cares this much about the Wii failing. It reminds me of when I was 14, and I bought a Super NES for Street Fighter 2. Up until that point, my friends and I were Sega guys. And my friend, Eric, spent so much time trying to get me not to buy the Super NES because he hated Nintendo so much. It almost came to the point where he was going to stop being my friend because I was going to buy it. It was really sad, and just a little pathetic.

Devil's Crush is absolutely awesome, but I believe that pinball title belongs to Metroid Prime Pinball.

I have to agree with Joust that Nintendo is charging way too much for their VC titles. Had Nintendo gone with $2 for NES, $4 for SNES (Genesis and TG-16), and $6 for N64, the issue of price for these barebone ROMs probably wouldn't be as strong.

Here's something I found (this could be wrong, though):

From Friday, 15 December
Urban Champion, Solomon's Key and Pinball (NES)
Columns, Gunstar Heroes, Ristar, Dr. Robotonik’s Mean Bean Machine (SEGA MEGA DRIVE)
Alien Crush TM (Turbografx/PC Engine)

From Friday, 22 December
Donkey Kong Jr., Soccer and Tennis (NES)
Space Harrier II and Toe Jam & Earl (SEGA MEGA DRIVE)
Military Madness (Turbografx/PC Engine)

From Friday, 29 December
SimCity, Super Probotector, and Super Castlevania IV (Super Nintendo)
Baseball and Ice Hockey (NES)
R-TYPE (Turbografx/PC Engine)


It's odd that it would say MEGADRIVE, but eh...could be fake could be real, it's a crapshoot

I'm guessing that's the Euro list. SimCity and a bunch of those NES games are already out here and Super Probector is Europe's Contra 3. Y'know, violence is bad, so turn everybody into robots. Yay.

...but I'd love to see SCIV and C3 here before the end of the year.

Your friend Eric was a good man.

If you're playing a TG-16 game with the remote instead of a GC or Classic Controller, the A and B buttons serve as the turbo buttons. Def. not practical, but figured I'd share.

Also, I know the debate about will or won't the games have enhancements, I was reading one of the magazines I got free subs to (EGM, GI, whatever) and they had an interview, and their excuse was "we want to give them the original experience, so there will be no changes to any of the games."

I already have the original experience on my Xbox, for free,

Way to suck there, Nintendo.

Why must Nintendo always rape people with their prices for classic shit. Remember the $20 classic series on GBA? $20 for Zelda 1, Fuck you!

I'm still going to feed the beast and buy Contra 3 and Super Castlevania though. EVIL BASTARDS!

The rest of your post answers that.

$20 gets you two/three VC roms or 10%+ of an XBox. Think about it.

This comment if fucking retarded. There is no way to make it cheaper than stealing. 20 cents couldn't compete free.

If you want to complain about them not putting in extra stuff then fine, but get fucking real.
