View Full Version : The "They should bring ____________ to the Wii VC" thread

Since it seems to me that we all enjoy the Wii VC so much, but they only bring out two or three games on it a week, my idea is this: Let's use this thread to point out games that Nintendo, or the companies that are helping them out with the VC in whatever way they are, NEEDS to make avaliable to the Virutal Console. Keep in mind that they put a few import games on there (SMB Lost Levels and Sin & Punishment, the latter I'm tempted to DL, btw).
My list for games wanted on the VC includes:
Super Punch-Out
Fatal Fury 2 (The Neo-Geo version, the one that REALLY took it off)
ANY of the Mega Man games (why have you not released them on it yet, Nintendo/Capcom?)
ANY of the Final Fantasy games (I could see why on this, though. Square releases a new version of the first six every month, but I'd still DL them).
Castlevania 2 & 3
Super Mario Bros. 3 (THE BEST Mario game that existed for a WHILE, still one of THE best)
Earthbound
Super Mario World 2
Sailor Moon: Another Story (localize THIS and watch people DL it like crazy. Out of all the SM games that they released overseas, THIS is the best one, and a pretty solid RPG in its own right).
The ORIGINAL Starfox
The FIRST Mother game (Earthbound Zero, it's prototype, or something).I don't think anyone who matters over there at Nintendo/comp. in question will ever read this, but what the hell.

Not sure WHAT that Angry Nintendo Nerd (assuming you HEARD of him) didn't like about it (not sure what anyone ELSE didn't like about it).

That's all I can think of for now.
Apparently Earthbound will be on the VC eventually. I heard that Nintendo is going to use the sales of that to decide whether to bring Earthbound 3 (Mother 3) to North America.

Is that Yoshi's Story?
Those games are decent, but not worthy enough for a purchase.
I haven't played DK 64, is it like the SNES ones, but 3D like Mario 64?

Yoshi's Island (SNES)
Zombies Ate My Neighbours
Maniac Mansion (NES)
Sunset Riders (Megadrive/Genesis)
I played Sunset Riders when I went on holiday when I was younger. Played it in the arcade with my sister and I couldn't get enough of the game then so I'd like to have it on my Wii.

SMW 2 was Yoshi's Island. And along with DKC2 is like the best 2D platformer of all time. Def worthy of a purchase, if you don't already have it on GBA
Well, whichever one was the stupid baby mario carrying bitch.

Typical Rare adventure crap with Donkey Kong slapped over it. Donkey Kazooie, if you will.

Just to expand on that more, from http://blogcritics.org/archives/2007/09/03/154623.php :
EarthBound to the Virtual Console? After a lengthy letter-writing campaign to get Mother 3 localized for North American audiences and to get EarthBound on the Virtual Console, EarthBound fan site Starmen.net was featured in the October 2007 issue of Nintendo Power (Volume 220). After making a trip to Nintendo of America’s headquarters and actually getting to sit down and talk with the guys from Nintendo Power, the Starmen.net crew seems to be hinting very strongly (http://starmen.net/forum/?t=msg&th=37241) that EarthBound is on its way to the Virtual Console. They noted that “if EarthBound sells very well on the VC, our chances of getting an official Mother 3 Translation increase.”
Seeing THIS on the Wii VC would seriously make me blow my load. It was one of THE most overlooked games EVER on the SNES. Almost overlooked it myself, and then tried it, loved it.
Hopefully we will see it here by the end of the year.

Yeah, and it's already on my Wii.
Now, GET EARTHBOUND ONTO THE WII NOW, NINTENDO!! How much longer will we wait until you do so?

Sunset Riders, both the genesis version and the SNES version (they were different, you see).
Saturday Night Slam Masters 2 (was never released Stateside).
Every Fire Emblem they never released here.
Final Fight 1 and Final Fight 3 (2 was big time ass).
Like every NES game ever.

I only played it in the arcade. What was the differences in the SNES/Genisis versions?
I wouldn't mind seeing Battletoads appear in the SNES section of the VC.

Final Fight 1 and Final Fight 3
Final Fight 1 is already on the Wii, I think
I will second you on the third one, however. It was rather good, and I would've given my right arm to fuck Lucia eight ways from Sunday.

At a certain point they have different levels. After level 3 I think. Also, the Genesis verison is hard as balls.
Gotta agree about Battletoads, but I say go all out and release all the Battletoads games along with the Double Dragon games and the team up: Battletoad and Double Dragon

I'm a Donkey Kong Country series mark, so I gotta go with DKC3. It wasn't the best in the series, but it wasn't nearly as flawed as some people made it out to be. Rare got really ambitious with it, and it didn't quite pay off, and keeping it simpler would have allowed to a much greater gameplay experience. A team of Donkey Kong and Dixie Kong would have rocked the world, too.
road doggy dogg is a god for agreeing that DKC2 is the greatest 2D platformer ever made. I'm going to have to trust him and really look into Yoshi's Island when it comes out. I played it a bit as a kid, and I remember loving it, but the Mario world never came close to immersing me as much as the Donkey Kong world.

Earthbound seems like a pretty good choice to me, too. I'm also itching for some Chrono Trigger and Mortal Kombat 1-3.
