Stocka Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 http://www.n-sider.com/newsview.php?type=story&storyid=2433 Earthbound Zero, Earthbound, Earthbound 2, Metroid 2 (color) are coming to the Virtual Console. There will be new Virtual Console remakes of certain NES and Game Boy games by first and third party developers. Expect to pay a bit more upon release. Online Wi-Fi for Virtual Console games is still a mystery. Pokemon Battle Revolution for Wii and Pokemon for Nintendo DS will arrive in North America sometime in March/April. Arcade and Amiga 500 games will join the Virtual Console fold very soon. Nintendo is contemplating releasing a Wii version of Tetris, Dr. Mario, and Mahjong exclusively through the Virtual Console. These are not ports of Famicom versions but new versions updated beyond their Nintendo DS counterparts. Nintendo Wii owners will get to buy Virtual Console games, game soundtracks, wall papers, and other physical items (real life posters and toys for example) with Wii Points. Wii Points can be purchased, earned through buying games, donated from friends, and won through Wi-Fi raffles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparko Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 I'd love it if we could use the Stars we still have on our Nintendo accounts as Wii points. I've got nearly 7000 of them, it would be pretty cool if I use them to buy some VC games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, imagining there were 360 like achievements you could earn which could be used as 'Wii points'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
21st century cowboy Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 I so hope Earthbound makes it's way to the VC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stefkov Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 I love that idea of using our stars on the website. It would benefit so many people. and Nintendo have made that much money anyway from al those games being sold from which we got our stars. I actualy have nearly over 10,000 earned but i spent a bit on crap and now only have about 7,000+ I'd love for them to do 1,000 stars = a NES or SNES game.
