Sorry I've had a gripe about the prices for Virtual Console games. They charge us $5 for Nintendo games, $8 for Super Nintendo games, and a whopping $10 for N64 games. Now if you think about it some of these old games cost more than Wii Ware games themselves, which im more willing to pay for because those are brand new games. And this goes for the games for the other consoles too like Genesis and NeoGeo.

I believe they should be Nintendo - $2, SNES - $4 N64 - $5 or $6

I know Nintendo is a business and I have VC games but I think Nintendo needs to reconsider their prices. We should make a petition. Your thoughts.

You need to do a better job explaining why you think VC games are overpriced, all you did was say old games should be cheap. 

I don't really understand this logic, an old game is new to someone who hasn't played it.  These games almost all used to cost $50 new and many were made to be fun for a long time.  Some of these games are more worth $50 now then some of the games coming out now. 

Why is it so much to you?  I can't see how anyone would have a problem with VC prices but be perfectly fine with wiiware prices and current new release retail titles.  VC is just like wiiware and retail, some games are worth it and some aren't.  Actually I'd have to say more VC games are worth it, because you can justify paying $8 to play an 8 hour game but I don't know how you can justify paying $60 for an 8 hour game.
