New System on Wii

[Mick Dundee]

Commodore 64 is apparently now a Virtual Console system for the Wii!
 They Released 3 games and a new WiiWare game today (23rd)

 (I'm hoping they get Saturn on there)

 Anyone else happy to see new systems added to the Wii virtual console?

Wii Shop Channel news I will be happy about:

Release of EarthBound
Release of EarthBound 2
Release of Banjo-Kazooie
Release of Pokemon Stadium 2
Release of Soundvoyager
Demos

Most people were anticipating the big deal Ninty was screaming about would be Earthbound. When it turned out to be C64, a lot of people got very pissed.

While it would be great for Saturn to appear on any console, the Wii definitely can't handle it. ISO files are much larger than ROMs, and Wii doesn't have to space for it. The closest we'll get to having the Saturn on any other console is the PS2's Sega Ages collection, and it'll be a cold day in hell before Sega of America decides to translate any of those. They'd rather keep releasing games starring rodents with guns, swords, lycanthropy and bad camera work.

How would Pokemon Stadium 2 work on the VC? Without the GB Connector thingie, the game is about 1/3rd as enjoyable!

Do the n64 emulators have any way of doing it?

Yeah, but come on, the solution is obvious at this point.

DSiWare. Download your desired Pokemon Game Boy game to your DSi and play it on the go. Then, when it's time for Stadium, connect the DSi to the Wii and load up your game's file. I'll be very sad if Nintendo doesn't do this.
