Official Virtual Console Thread

[2pro4show]

Noticed we didn't have a thread like this, and no point having a new one pop up every time an interesting game gets released, so I took it upon myself to make it. Discuss VC games and happenings in here, and I'll put a nice list at the start.

All names are the names given to the titles in NA if available. If I felt a certain title had significant differences in other regions, they were listed as two or more separate games.

Game (Wii points value) - Available in North America(NA), Europe(EU), Japan(JP), Australia(AU).

Trust me I'll need it.

And to kick off the discussion, 1080 Snowboarding (N64) is being released, woo! I may just make this my first VC download.

[waa_waa_wii_waa]

I really want Super Mario Kart on the VC. I've never played it and word on the street is that it's pretty damn good.


I also want a Sega Genesis game by the name of "Combat Cars." It was a top down racer that was extremely, extremely addicitive.


I also want a storage solution.

SD card. The games are only what... 10-50mb each? and you can get a 2Gb SD card for like £2 and probably less in U$D

The problem with that is last I heard you can't run the games off of the SD card, you need to delete a channel (assuming your Wii slots are full), copy the data to the Wii, and re-download the channel you deleted when you want it again.

Really? That sucks. I didn't know that.

[2pro4show]

On second thought, you could copy the channel data to the SD card and then delete the channel on the Wii, then download the title to the open slot, and vice-versa when you want your old channel back. That saves you from re-downloading... but it's still a hassle. And with Brawl coming up with downloadable stages, pictures, and a stage editor, screenshotter and replay capture abilities, lots of people are gonna find themselves with a full Wii memory. Nintendo, we need a solution, hurry.
