Guess I'll make a big update to my Wii U VC thread sometime next week (once I have confirmed NA + PAL games for the 20th).

Is it me or are a lot of those are the ones we got on the 3DS?



The GBA remake of Super Mario World...
Isn't that a bit redundant???
Or does that version have extra content???



Have a nice day...

If I remember correctly, it's the exact same game. 

The only difference is that it has a slight remix of the classic Mario Bros. for the arcades...which is something that has been done countless times already.

I've always wanted to play GBA games on my HD TV! /sarcasm

I don't get you Nintendo. Either have two separate Virtual Consoles for handheld and console libraries, or pool them together. Oh, and release games people actually want. This GBA lineup is good about having games people care about, but the other libraries are terrible. One more thing - CAN WE GET POKEMON GAMES?!

Color me envious. I hope these eventually touch down in other regions.



So happy about Superstar Saga!!!!

Best in the series playable on the Wii U gamepad! Dream come true! Now all I need is TTYD on Wii U VC.

It is a little bit weird...they should be on both consoles...
