I've noticed Super Star Wars has become available on the VC and was wondering if other film based games will come out?
Does anyone have any info on this?
I remember there being plenty on the NES and SNES, like Star Trek, Terminator, Goonies etc etc.
Cheers...

The Star Wars license is owned by Lucasarts, which means there's no license agreements involved. Other licensed games are more unlikely, especially if the license isn't one that's currently incredibly popular, like Star Wars is.

Indiana Jones' Greatest Adventures has a pretty good chance of being released, though.

With all these licensing issues and what not, the odds are highly against them.

Aladdin for Genesis would be great and some other great movie based games are The Terminator (Genesis), Batman (NES), and Willow (NES)

They are unlikely, but considering that the Star Wars franchise finally got three VC releases, anything is possible. Even with the odds against them, there is still a slight chance.

That odd will increase if we can get Earthbound on the Virtual Console, as well as fix easier licensing issues, like the TMNT.

It probably depends upon how much support there is from the company that has the property. If Disney Interactive falls in love with the Wii then they might want to bring some old VC titles out which will make many people happy from what I've seen around here!

Game releases have to be approved by the publisher, developer and IP owner.
Movie franchise games would probably be a nightmare to get out because those 3 bodies have to agree with each other.

This is why Goldeneye isn't ever going to be release on any system.

Indiana Jones' Greatest Adventures has a pretty good chance of being released, though.

That it did. I hope to see the other Indiana Jones and Star Wars games on other consoles like the Genesis and the NES come to the VC at some point.

Edgey, Gumshoe, Godot, Sissel, Larry, then Mia, Franziska, Maggie, Kay and Lynne.

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

Outside of Lucasarts, the only likely movie game would be Michael Jackson's Moonwalker.

Now that LucasArts is available for the VC, we should see more of their games. Star Wars Episode I: Racer mayhaps?

Well since Disney Interactive Studios owns every video game material involving Disney i'm pretty sure Disney games will appear on VC.
