That's good value really when you think about it and like others have stated time and time again we need to support the industry and keep it alive... I mean c'mon people buy crappy phone games for a dollar.

so let me get this straight .. they are not integrating the VC or are we paying to have the Gamepad functionality, because i couldent care less about gamepad functionality

You're paying to have restore points, Miiverse integration, and Gamepad support, and probably more features as well. If you don't care about any of that, then just don't pay, leave them in Wii Mode. It's no big.

What I find hardest to swallow is that if you just buy the games upfront on the Wii U, you will pay the regular price and get Wii U functions yet all of us have already payed the regular price and now we're paying a dollar more for those same features. What Nintendo should've done is charge a dollar more for games on the eShop and then the prices would work out the same and we wouldn't be paying more than new users. At least we will get Deluxe Promotion Points, right?

You pay one dollar to play it on the newest controller (with a lot of new options) and you also get points... so i don't think it's absurd :/

@JogurtTheYogurt: No, i don't actually.

Either way, I don't see the big deal paying a buck for the upgrade. If you don't care about GamePad functionality, leave 'em in Wii mode.

@JogurtTheYogurt They're meeting you half way.

Honestly I'm more upset there won't be every old VC game available right away. I was hoping to see NEW VC games on the Wii U(Saturn or GameCube). They won't even have Mega Drive or NeoGeo available by Summer. Looks like the next four years will be spent waiting for the games we already have to get a VC upgrade.

I didn't think that Nintendo was so idiotic that they would try to even attempt at ripping me off by charging me for an update of all things. Well, screw it then. Paying ANYTHING for an update like this is needless. Not to mention most of the features aren't worth paying a dollar for aside from restore points. But to hell with even those, because I can live without them. Everyone has a right to be pissed off about this, and saying that it's okay for Nintendo to do this is basically saying that it's alright for said company to rip you off. This is pure unadulterated greed and it really sickens me that Nintendo will stoop this low just for more cash.

And the sad part is that this would actually be okay (actually it wouldn't be...but at least I could have tolerate it) if Nintendo just did a one-time charge instead of charging for updating EVERY game. I have so many VC games that it's not even funny. I would probably have to pay around $50 or more just to update all my VC games, and that's utter BS...which I'm not going to stand for. The remaining respect I had for Nintendo is now completely shattered after hearing this beyond horrible news.

Finally someone who sees sense around here the people commenting are people who have only a few i have over 141 VC titles and only a handful are supported why not transfer all of the games ? Nintendo still owns the licence to all of the games otherwise all of the third party games would have been removed why why is it an issue ? OH wait they want to start the VC from scratch and make the loyal Wii users pay again ..

I can help. List what games you have and I'll inform you what's worth keeping.

@Knux @JogurtTheYogurt

Ya'll be too greedy right about now.

They're coding them from the ground up. Do you think they're working for free? It wouldn't be smart. And hell, it's not like the VC was even a good deal to start with. You chose to buy those games again to have them on your Wii, so why are you whining about a buck for advanced features?

Nobody is asking you to buy it again for every game that you own. Just get it for the ones you want to play again with the new features. Simple as that. You're whining that you can't get something for nothing.

Knowing Nintendo this only will apply to its own tytles. So the Commodore, Neo Geo, etc games will be out to update. I doubt all 410 (aprox) VC games will be updated.

And another thing, if wiiware isn´t integrated to eshop (like the dsiware in 3ds) it will die in few weeks (why not update it too?)

Me gusta jugar videojuegos. Soy de México. Sorry my english grammar. I love the Virtual Console, party and fighting games too.

You guys can play them on your Wii U. Leave it in Wii Mode. If you don't care about restore points or gamepad functionality, why is it such a big deal for you? I don't get the furor.

@TBD: It's more of the fact that Nintendo is doing this out of pure greed. I just never thought that they would charge for updates, but I should have known. It's really the idea behind it that bothers me more than anything else.
