I haven't seen anyone complaining about there being basically no game releases since Wario Ware, and the fact that it was really the only game released after Xmas. Everybody is too busy playing their VC titles to notice :P

True, but with my various collections (ZCE, Sonic) and my old SNES there's nothing on Virtual Console I'd really wanna download yet. I'm still waiting for Chrono Trigger.
