Outlander - great SNES title. Not exactly a racing game, but would love to see it on VC! I agree that Top Gear deserves a place on the list as well as Rock n' Roll Racing!

Rock n' Roll Racing ?!? Not listed !! Shame!

it has been said so often already, a small system update and the usb ports or the sd slot could be ready to use for storage + direct play. So what is the reason for not going for that - no free staff to conduct the programming necessary, because other projects earn them more money?? The bride side is, re-downloading software saves a lot of plastic, tri-wing screws and other resources that would be used for a hard drive. So being casual from NoE's point of view is being ecologically correct

shoot em' ups, shoot me up...

Another thing - if interplay games are starting to be released on the vc do you think there is a chance for rock n' roll racing to be out soon?

I agree with Bass X0 - although there is a really cool collection available already on vc, i would be sooo happy if there would be more cool old multiplayer games ('cause it just rocks so much playing with friends those old ones) which obviously never will see the daylight on the vc. NBA JAM T.E. or Rock n' Roll Racing, Royal Rumble (all SNES), just to mention three...

By the way, if ever such good old multiplayable games come out despite all facts - it would also be great to have some sort of general online feature along with the vc via wifi. Imagine Super Street Fighter online on your Wii.WOOOHOOO!!

I can only explain this list by admitting that the huge user base consists 90% of casual gaming folks that just send in the stars they got from (lets say..) their xmas wii+games to change them into wii points and then only getting one game. And what are they buying - just what they know. I reckon those customers would never buy wii points seperately to get a retro title. This way i am afraid that the vc will turn into a lame duck as soon as wiiware is out everywhere.

I agree with manicfatty (# 88) - it is rather the technical side than the content of the vc giving the retro fans a reason to complain / cry about. Wouldn't a wii update make a lot of things easier there...
BUT:
Anyone who thinks that more games should be released is barking up the wrong tree, because the marketing reasons influence the distribution after all. And i'll bet that retro fanboys are a clear minority among all wii users. I would welcome technical changes, like starting games directly from my sd-card or making the interface Mac-alike. Then i would need a miracle to find the money/time to really enjoy playing everything i would like from what is available already.

I agree with those of you, saying there are enough shooters so far. More Jump n' Runs! There were so many good ones for the SNES!

by the way... does anyone know how long a purchased liscence of a vc title is valid.

I'd say as long as everything can be re-downloaded all over again (and forever... also in 30 years from now) it would be o.k. to increase the download speed. If there are ways of course. Gaming itself is a touch-and-go issue for nintendo. Obviously.

I read a review on amazon saying that someone had a broken wii console which has been send in to nintendo. Ultimately, this person got a brandnew console directly from nintendo and voila: all his vc games + save stats were on it

Concerning the article, it should be mentioned that the european prices for vc games are a lot higher because the € is worth more than the $. This way vc games are propably still cheaper thatn the originals - but the difference surely is not as significant. I calculated that all available games on the vc cost european Gamers nearly $ 2000 instead of $ 1325. Apart from this, the vc's disadvantages are minor to the benefits i think.

Are those Bobby Cars over there free!? Some ballons, a few dart arrows and helloween really can begin
