It did. Though the Wii U VC restored the original Kawasaki banners first. The Wii VC version is the only one that does not include the original Kawasaki endorsement. Blue Storm has a lot more product placement/endorsement than the original game though; and also uses higher profile licenses too that would presumably come with a higher pricetag to re-license. I think it's fairly likely that @Glen-i is right and that they will scrub the licenses when they do release it on NSO, because the costs of relicensing will be fairly high. Luckily it's just a matter of doing some texture swaps, not too difficult to accomplish... On that matter. 1080 Avalanche will be a problem, since that goes so far as to include licensed music; and quite a lot of it! That won't be so easy to solve, since they can't just do a cheap texture swap in that case... Actually, come to think of it, I think 1080 Avalanche is the one and only internally developed Nintendo first party title to ever feature a licensed soundtrack! As an aside, Pikmin 2 is now in the clear since the Switch port of the game has already scrubbed all of the licensed content; so they can just reuse the edits made in that version. -
Heck yeah, Gamecube! Luigi's Mansion is one I never got to try. I never really felt the pull for it when I was younger (that was a time where longer games and broader content were more highly valued). These days, I appreciate its strengths so much more, and I'd love to give it a try. Wave Race: Blue Storm is one I did own. Once again, I didn't really appreciate the seemingly little amount of content at the time (especially when I also had F-Zero GX), but looking back, that game had plenty of strengths. Gamefeel was superb, and it looked great for the time. Surprising amount of personality for such a western-coded game, too. I'm sure it's coming to the NSO, and I do hope I can give it another shot sooner rather than later. -
This was a really fun read, learning about these unique titles And it seems the Virtual Boy had even fewer games than I thought!

I think the NSO version restored the original adverts. The Virtual Console had Wii and DS logos everywhere. -
Wasn't feeling it at first, but that last scene is actually kind of brilliant. Cautiously optimistic.
