Will you keep your Wii? I will because Nintendo takes way too long putting good games on virtual console and plus they will be overpriced

I still have my Gamecube, N64 and Wii so hell no im not buying the Wii U :PTakaSasuke20911Why not, if you don't mind me asking..? The prospect of the Metroid, Zelda and Pikmin franchises in glorious 1080p-o-vision on a console around 4 or 5 times more powerful than the PS3 and 360 is too much to resist for me personally.
I usually keep my old consoles, even if I can play it on the latest. I find it runs so much smoother, and well... I like to keep it. Unfortunately my brother sold my 2 gamecubes (thats right, 2! Each I got for $60 :P) and half of my games to get his stupid xbox 360... still angry about that....
Anyway, of course I'll keep my Wii. Because a) I like to collect my consoles and b) how else will I be able to play my old games? Why would I buy the ones at virtual console when I already have a perfectly good copy of the origina game.\
edit: Oh and I LOVE my super nintendo =) I wish they made more of these awesome 2D games...
I still have my Gamecube, N64 and Wii so hell no im not buying the Wii U :PTakaSasuke20911You do realise that the Wii U is a brand new next gen console, so to get the latest games you will need to get the Wii U. It is like 5 times powerful then ps3 and xbox 360 too, so if you don't mind me asking... why not?

um maybe because nes/snes/genesis/n64 games look garbage on a HDTV? and there is no pause resume feature on those real consoles..
That still isn't worth the 5, 8, or 10 bucks which can be better spent elsewhere.Man, I don't get it. $3-$4 for Game Boy games, and $5-$6 for GBC games is over priced? Are you kidding me? That is so much better than NES/SNES VC pricing.
I mean, go to any c(lassic) used games store and you're going to pay at least triple that in most cases for an original copy.
I would keep my Wii coz I'm sure all our VC/WiiWare stuff will transfer, but it will probably be a silly transfer method like the DSiWare to 3DS where it requires both your DSi and your 3DS.
I'd just use my old Cube, and if I didn't have a Cube I'd buy one for $20
I've pretty much gotten everything I needed out of the Cube, and I think its pretty odd to feel entitled to Cube support in a console a generation separated in 2012.
I'll gladly re-purchase certain Cube games when they hit the Wii U eShop (You know its got to be one store for both the 3DS/Wii U this time) if they support 1920x1080, and get added features like online multiplayer (not likely, but a faint, distant hope)

Um, what? The TC is asking if people will keep their Wii's to play GameCube games in 2012 and beyond since the Wii U won't play GCN games.
How does you owning a Cube, 64, and Wii correlate to you not wanting to buy a Wii U in general?
Are you saying you wouldn't buy a Wii U for older games? Or are you just saying you won't buy a Wii U?

I don't think he realises its an entirely new next-gen console...[QUOTE="KBFloYd"][QUOTE="simomate"]Why would I buy the ones at virtual console when I already have a perfectly good copy of the origina game.\

That still isn't worth the 5, 8, or 10 bucks which can be better spent elsewhere.its worth it to me...i love having a retro virtual collection..that i can play on my hdtv.
i just paid some guy 70$ to make me a turbografx16 controller modded for the virtual console :P
