Personally, I wouldn't mind the original Yoshi's Safari coming to the Virtual Console and I'd rather the real effort go into a sequel. What do you want?

I don't really care about Yoshi's Safari. Now SMW2: Yoshi's Island... that, I would love to see on the VC.

WiiWare shouldn't have any reworked titles. There should be nothing but new titles for it.

I don't even know what Yoshi's Safari is. Sounds like pokemon snap with Yoshi, or something.

As long as it has more Safari, I don't care if it comes out for the Virtual Boy, I'll get it.

isnt that the snes game with the gun... it wont come out on the VC... you would need a gun to play it and yes I know they could just use the wiimote but then you are puting wii controls into a VC game which they said they wouldnt do.

Well, I'm sure they could find a way to use the Classic Controller if they really wanted to, but it would defeat the purpose of the game.

Maybe they'll release the "Super, Duper WiiScope". I'm sure it would sell, even if it's only for the 1 game.

you could use a Wii zapper , I haven't play Yoshi Safari for years and thats one of the games I'm still waiting for. YS was a great game and if you guys haven't played it , you should download it when it hits the vc.

again... it isnt going to happen because that would be wii controls... Im not happy it wont happen, Im just saying it wont happen... There will be several games that will never make it to the VC because of things like this... all of the master system 3d glasses games... duck hunt... hogan's alley... hey you pikachu...or pretty much any other game that used something extra besides the standard controls for that system.

Where did they say they wouldn't add Wii controls? If Pokemon Snap can use Wii specific features, then other games can too.

Duck hunt wouldn't even play the same with the wiimote anyways. The NES Zapper works by detecting changes on the actual TV screen (screen would blank out and show a hitbox which would be detected by a photo diode in the zapper). Ever notice how you could hold the zapper right up to the screen and it would still work? Try that with the wiimote... not gonna work at all.

The wiimote seems a little less intuitive in this regard because you pretty much need a cursor of some sort on the screen to be able to tell where exactly you are pointing it, whereas the zapper you basically just aim at the screen naturally.

your statement is stated in a way that makes it sound like you are argueing with me but we dont have differing points... none of those games which I listed, yoshi's island included, would play the same on the wii... and the whole reason for the VC is to play the games as it was back in the old days... such is why they wont be on the vc.

Um...

I'm sorry for asking, but what is Yoshi's Safari?

So far I figured out that it used a gun peripheral and you are on a safari...

Do you shoot yoshis or something, lol, cause if you do, well that's sort of sick.

Shame on you.

Nah, was just adding to your statement. I agree.

I actually picked Yoshi's Safari up recently, as I've been siked on the SuperScope I scored from a friend. It's actually pretty unbearable.

I only paid a dollar, and it was a dollar too much.

No one in their right mind would spend 800 points on this title.

Now Battle Clash is a different story...
