[Wii] Virtual Console Rip-off

The only way it's gonna fail is if Nintendo don't update it and let it rot, but I don't see that happening with their weekly VC game additions, as small as they may be. Xbox Live Arcade has been extremely popular and it's been around a lot longer! PlayStation 3's going to feature Neo Geo games on its own service in the near future, I don't think any of them are going to go under. People can download music for free too, yet iTunes music store is thriving.

I know I'd happily bend over for the Virtual Console when Nintendo get Pilotwings 64 up on it. It's one of my favorite games ever.

But you haven't even used the Virtual Console service. Is it really so hard for you to understand that some people actually like paying for video games? =| I don't know how much longer this merry-go-round's going to last!

There's nowhere I can't reach.
