Yes yes yes yes yes!

For $10... but I could play with a bunch of friends for free with the N64

Very good game to bring over.

...the original SNES one was better IMO. Although I have to say that Mario Kart DS is pretty awesome...

 

[stevemedes]

hmm i always like the n64 version a little better than SNES. both games are classics though! Mario tennis 64 needs to be brought over next.

Is it going to be network multiplayer?

 

[mooncancook]

too bad i already bought the GC version to play on the Wii

 

[igowerf]

I wish we could somehow prove that we own the original cartridge so that we don't have to rebuy it on the Wii. It'd be great if I could just import all of my old SNES and N64 games onto my Wii. I guess there's no way that it could be efficiently or securely done though.

No. Nintendo doesn't update their virtual console titles for things like that.

Ocarina of Time to Japanese VC in February...want it nowwwwwww

Although I think I have the bonus Gamecube disc laying around somewhere that came with Wind Waker...

Take it for what it's worth, but my coworker's cousin works for Tecmo and he said that Tecmo Bowl will be making its way to the Wii VC in the near future.

WTF Nintendo!

Of course they can always double up on the profit and release Master Quest as well...here they were giving those games (as a promotion for Wind Waker - some might say that it was compensation for the disappointing WW) but now those discs can be found going for $50...

Dissapointing Wind Waker??? I thought it was great, and much better than Twilight Princess, not just a rehash of older games, it was actually different.

Meh, I have a Mario Kart DS that has N64 tracks on it and Wifi mp too.

I enjoyed Wind Waker as well, but you can't convince the countless number of fans who were severely let down after seeing the Spaceworld 2000 demo only to be given a less than epic WW.
