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

* looks at 3ds e-shop*

I'm keeping my Wii even if Wii-U had Cube support. Got too many save files and downloadable games on it to just get rid of it.

I sold my N64. I sold my GCN. But I'm keeping the Wii for the lack of GCN support on the Wii U, plus other reasons like that we don't know if saved data of online games can be transfered. Hell, we don't even know if data of regular games can be transfered, let alone VC/Wiiware games.

Why 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.

if there are no controller adaptors...to use my original n64/nes/snes controllers on WiiU then i will keep my wii just for my virtual console..

wiiU will have gamecube games for download so gamecube is covered on wiiU.

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...

You 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?

This is how I do things if the current console can play the older games from a previous console I get rid of the old one, so since the Wii U won't play GCN games I'll keep my Wii. But since my 60gb PS3 plays PS1/2 games I don't have my ps1/2 anymore. But I still have my snes and n64 as they're the only console you can play the games on.

I keep my systems and it is tempting to sell my SNES, 64, an GCN since they're in a box. But what the hey, keep them anyway
