I think this is a fantastic idea that would make the site easier to use. I was actually going to start a thread for this if I couldn't find an existing one.
I could see a few different implementations that would work well for the user. GameSpot Wii could have it's own subpage for Virtual Console games. Or, the GameSpot Wii page could have a drop-down menu or some checkboxes for including/excluding Virtual console games and/or original Wii games from the various widgets on the page (these widgets being the Top Ten, Recent Updates, Most Popular, etc.). Really, this feature would be most useful if it had three states: Show All Wii games, Show Only Original Wii Titles, Show Only Wii Virtual Console Titles.
Now that I think about this, GameSpot X360's XBL Arcade games would benefit from this sort of feature as well... as would any platform that has both disc-based and downloadable games/content.
Make us proud, GS!
