that is true

im starting to think they are saving some games for wiiU virtual console.... but reggie said the wii would coexsist with wiiU so im sure the wii will get the same VC games that wiiU will get.

Its not dead

Not all the games. If the Wii U gets Dreamcast/Saturan/ and gamecube VC the Wii couldn't handle that.

The virtual console is not dead, It is just a taking a really long vacation.

It was great in the early life of the Wii, but it eventually turned out to be(come) a disaster. 3 games in one week? It's a JOKE I tell you...

what else is there to come out anyway (that wouldnt be better on 3DS VC) besides SF??
I mean Mother and Yoshi's island would be better if they were released via GBA on the 3DS VC (and we are for sure getting Yoshi's island)

why would it be better? i think its better to sit in front of an actual tv and play that kind of game.
just how im playing it now.

I'm happy with it most of the games I wanted for it have already come out. I just wish Earthbound had made it on there.

I Think That The Wii Virtual Console Is Not Quite Dead Yet, Because They might just release the 2 Super NES Games that I Want Which Are Mega Man X2 & Lufia & The Fortress Of Doom.

nintendo should at least have something on their website telling us which games are coming out and when as well. it's unfair that the 3DS is getting games released on the V.C each month, which i have no problem with whatsoever. yet NOA and NOE ignore the wii V.C.

I don't think it's dead yet, but it's reaching the end of its lifespan. Pretty much after we get Mega Man X2 (and hopefully Strider and the SF II with online play), then it will be dead.

Don't forget Monster World IV! And Puyo Puyo. And Super Hang-On. Sunsoft still has to release some stuff, too.

I'll believe that when a released date is confirmed. Those games may still take a long time to come if they ever come at all.

It also sucks that companies released known bad games that obviously wouldn't sell well when they still had good games to release that would have made them a decent amount of profit.

What were they thinking!?

Okay so maybe they did want to try release all the games that they have available to them but with the 'death' of the Virtual Console, I just don't see why they chose some of the games they did.

The VC is like Michael Myers, it keeps coming back from the dead. Speaking of Michael Myers wouldn't it be great to see this classic for the Atari on the Wii VC?

And here I thought the VC was just hitting its Strider.

I wouldnt say this is a full resurrection of the Wii VC one game in how many months?? Still its a start once they go back to releasing a VC game every other week then I will say the Wii VC is no longer dead.

i love these thread topics. i really do
here we go...
