What do you think? I can see DC games being released in 2 years and Cube games in 3.

Why in the heck would they offer Cube game on the VC when the Wii is fully backwards compatible with all Nintendo Gamecube games?

There isn't enough space for them. Plus the Wii isn't strong enough to emulate the Dreamcast. (emulation requires the device emulating to be many times "stronger" than the device being emulated. The performance difference between the Wii and Dreamcast isn't enough)

GC games would be sweet as most are hard to find where I'm at.

No. GC games play on Wii natively. No reason to put them on VC.

No to the DC for the other reasons, no space, Wii not powerful enough to emulate it.

I could see Saturn being emulated before Dreamcast and I could see SEGA CD or 32X being emulated before Saturn. Not really enough killer titles on Sega CD or 32x to invest in it though...

0% chance of Gamecube games coming to VC after they put all the effort in for the system to take GC discs as well as Wii discs, and the control ports especially for GCN controllers.

So true, but at least Sega could release Sonic CD and Knuckles Chaotix on the WiiWare. They are the only 2 killer titles on Sega CD and 32x.

I think that Sega CD is only a matter of time to see it on the VC. If HUdson can bring Turbografx-CD games, why not Sega?

No way in hell will they do cube games

Dreamcast games are very unlikley, but there is a possibility especially if they ad the HDD

It would be cool if they add Dreamcast to the VC but that won't happen until they release a HDD for the Wii. I would also like to see 3DO make its way to the VC and all of the other systems that have been metioned above. The more the better.

Like I said, even if you solve the space issue, the Wii just isn't powerful enough.

I never understood Nintendo though... Sony keeps publishing its major releases all over the world, but Nintendo just stops publishing 1st party games 1-2 years after their initial release. That stinks...

Why aren't some of the best GC games republished?? (I already completed my collection, but a lot of others would still want them)

They may simply not have the resources. (Sony is a much bigger company.)
