According to GamesTM, a gaming magazine, there is something very big coming to the Virtual Console.

“Something big is coming to the Virtual Console, something that, for the past decade, certain corners of the retro community have been crying out for. I wish I could say more, but the uncertainties of publishing schedules prevents me from spilling the beans too early. Nevertheless, if what we’ve heard turns out to be true, the virtual console is about to become a lot more interesting and looks like it might turn out to be much more valuable to dedicated retro gamers than we first thought.”

I have no idea of what this could be. Since it's something for retro gamers maybe it Pong? Who knows. Your guess is as good as mine. Let us know what you think it is.

GamesTM says “something big heading to Wii VC - GoNintendo

Really retro... Space Invaders... Combat (old Atari)... Goldeneye (but not That retro)...

Battletoads *dreams*

Haha Goldeneye is RARE you know...

I'm thinking old Arcade games.

I loved the first Battletoads. I used to play with my bro and we loved beating the crap out of each other on it instead of trying to get to the end, lol.

Yeah, I know. A man can wish can't he... I miss trapping my friend in the toilet with mines everywhere and he can't get out and then going through the ducts to let one on his head!

Still yeah, one more vote for Battletoads!!!

I think Battletoads is RARE too.

Battletoads is rare unfortunately. There should be some loophole that they can find though considering they were made when they were still with Nintendo. Apparently Rare has the rights to them and since M$ owns them... Nintendo said they're working on it though.

maybe we can get VC points by playing upcoming Wii games.

Maybe they will put some games up that I will actually play!...MAYBE! I love retro dont get me wrong, I had an intellivision folks, and I owned a super famicon (japan's snes)when I lived overseas. So I know old school. But cmon I want more 64 titles, and more snes. More good stuff...ok ecco the dolphin was sweet, but wario's woods was not it. I dont know who compiles the list of would be VC games but slap em up real quick. They should ask US what we want.

ONLINE SUPPORT FOR SOME VC GAMES!!!! ...... .. .. . yea right. i wish..

Its Killer Instinct

thats what I'm thinking... lol

Like they'd give us all the awesome games straight away... thats not Nintendo.

My guess is Earthbound. You know, the one Ness is from?

Maybe it's not. Maybe it's.... ZERO WING!!! (All your base are belong to us)

If it really is zero wing...that would suck.....but yeah, Earthbound would be kickass. My hope is that this is relating to a game with ONLINE MULTIPLAYER!!!! That is what the VC should get, and while you guys may think I'm crazy....I want to play some old school NES "Spy Vs. Spy" on the VC.......

Does anyone else remember that game? I haven't played it in years and maybe it would suck to me now....but back in the day when it first came out it was fantastic multiplayer to me hahaha

this could be anything but if its big i so cant wait to find out what it is

I'm still wondering if we're gonna get something special on the 8th when it finally comes out in the UK or maybe the following Monday when they update the VC...

I do hope its not classic arcade games, and is some sort of multiplayer support.

Who needs arcade games when you have one of these...


P.S All the marquees were off due to me decorating

Nice! My friend would kill to have that in his basement. He is the only friend I have that still goes to play in arcades everyday. I'm talking about games that are really old too. He loves it. I'll have to show him your picture!
