@shani: True! It would be too much. and considering Star Fox Wii U is actually gonna contain some elements from Star Fox 2 "or so I read". So a remaster on the Wii U would be redundant. However, a remaster on the Nintendo 3DS would work as well, even better so. The 3DS needs more than just a remake of Star Fox 64. It's the perfect place to remaster Star Fox 1 & 2.
I don't see why not release Star Fox 2 now on the Wii U virtual console. They have a master copy of the completed game and the timing can't be anymore perfect. It's been 20 years since Star Fox 2's development and Star Fox Wii U is on it's way. Releasing it would be a perfect promotional piece for the Wii U title and a relic of Star Fox history. We all know Nintendo is deliberately not releasing Super FX titles on the VC " not counting Yoshi's Island for GBA which was rebuilt without it" for reasons we have no clue. Emulation issues? Legal issues? who knows... But if Nintendo can't give us the original rom. Then why not just rebuild it and the original from the ground up with Wii U graphics and sound? Just re-create the completed game with added bells and whistles, it will make every Star Fox fan very happy.
