Topic: Nintendo says "many more" VC games are on the way.

http://www.gonintendo.com/viewstory.php?id=91325#comment-section

Nintendo seems to be a hell of a lot more talkative recently, not sure if I should take this seriously especially given the last supposed comment from Nintendo.

Woohoo!

well that sounds convincing and makes me feel better on whats to come!

This sounds like it would be comment that Nintendo would make. Its a positive sign I think. We VC fans need to keep the pressure on Nintendo and remind them on a regular basis to keep supporting the services we want. If they want to make the service better and perhaps more profitable just ask the fans.

Y'see? And you all went on a tirade saying the VC won't be supported anymore!

I suppose a few outraged fans on a single forum don't make much difference. But when a large number of fans spread across the internet are outraged then its time for Nintendo to put out some sort of statement. We forced them to do things a few times - remember the whole storage problems and how only those who wanted a storage solution were "geeks and otaku"?

And honestly I think that is happening because I have noticed a lot of angry comments on several websites including IGN.

Phew! I hope they release the games I wanted like Super Smash Bros., Super Mario Kart, Earthworm Jim 2 and Sonic & Knuckles.

"many more are on the way via all of these digital delivery systems"
That's referring to not only the VC, but DSiWare and Wiiware as well. I wouldn't exactly say that they're promising plenty of VC games. I'm not saying Nintendo has abandoned the VC either but It would be nice if they made a statement addressing it directly.

They're dancing around it, really. They're saying there will be "many more" across ALL of the platforms, collectively.

I got an responce from Nintendo. It's basicilly the same thing, but look at it closer:

"Hello,

Thank you for contacting Nintendo. I’m happy to address your concerns regarding the Wii’s Virtual Console service.

Each week we make available a mix of Virtual Console, WiiWare, and DSiWare games. Combined, these services currently provide gamers with hundreds of fun and interesting downloadable games to choose from. There is no preset schedule as to how many games will become available in a given week, but I can assure you that many more Virtual Console, WiiWare, and Nintendo DSiWare games are on the way!

I can also assure you that your comments have been forwarded to the appropriate departments for further review and will be added to the feedback record for the Virtual Console service. Again, thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with us.

Sincerely,
Mina Harris

The words in bold ****** me off, because we haven't gotten an Virtual Console in two weeks, however, the words in Italic are somewhat signs of relief. And who is Mina Harris? Since I don't know her, I'm not sure if Nintendo is telling the truth.

Nice. And notice that they've changed their responses with regards to the VC service and inquiries on it. This could've been prompted by my email and the emails of others -- mine because I got a specific reply that addressed an issue I had and they said they'd take steps to change their responses to be more accurate.

I hope these Nintendo reps. get tired of responding to the VC emails and take it out on their boss Anyway when I emailed 2 weeks ago it said you can expect 10 new VC games on average each month.

Its about time they changed that email because that has not been a reality since 2007 and 2008.

I think it was safe to say that more VC games are going to appear. I think the question is whether we'll get them once a week or once a year.

Woot! That rhymes

He's a poet and he don't know it.

This message sounds like a winner to me.

If true, it'll make me play more on my Wii.

A winner is you
