Extremely important.

1) conveniance of being able to play all your games on 1 system.
2) upscaling (Playing GC games in 480P on Wii is awesome)
3) Redundancy, having 2 systems that can play the same games means if 1 breaks down, you can still enjoy all the classics.

 

Edit: Wii isn't really upscaling GC games to 480P since they mostly had it to begin with, but almost nobody had the cables to use it on GC, so most are seeing 480P GC for the first time.
