@Tasuki:
Yeah, I know those are from the ambassador program and I guess that makes sense. But I would still love to play Metroid Zero Mission, Castlevania and a dozen other GBA titles on my 3DS. It just sucks that it's probably not gonna happen until the next console.

Why did they pull Yoshi's Cookie from the Wii VC? Also not that this is really a true clue to it's return, but on Wikipedia and a Mario themed Wiki it shows WiiU release TBA for YC. That's odd?

If the upcoming NX is a 3DS-replacement, and if it's compatible with the Wii U VC, then it makes sense to focus attention on that VC library. That way the NX will have a library of 200+ VC titles immediately available on release day.

The WiiU VC is barely breathing as it is.

I'm hoping that Nintendo will release more VC games next year if Pokémon sells well. Even if it is just Pokémon Gold, Silver and Crystal on Game Boy Color.

They're essentially setting a precent with Pokémon Red, Blue and Yellow. And considering the fact that almost all of the preorders for the 2DS console bundles have been sold out in Australia (only the Blue 2DS remains), I'm sure that we'll see G/S/C by Christmas. They'd be crazy not to. When you think about it, it's pretty ridiculous that Nintendo are using an 18 year old game that is not a remake as a selling point for a console bundle in this day and age.

And I'd love to see the GBA/DS Pokémon games on the Wii U eShop too.

@Dankykong: In NA, sure but it's been like that since the Wii U's launch. In EU, it's still very strong.

@Yellowkoopa: Can we just get back to regular Game Boy, NES, Game Gear and Game Boy Color releases first before thinking about GBA and DS games coming to the 3DS Virtual Console?

I'm throwing my money at the screen but nothing happens!
