So why does Nintendo charge 1$ to upgrade NES games and 1.50$ to upgrade SNES games for? What's upgraded?

Off-TV play.

Customizable controls.

Miiverse Compatability + Screenshots.

Restore Points (basically a free save point)

Not worth a 1-1.50$.  This should be free.

This conversation was had over a year ago. If you don't think those features are worth the price, you have the right to not pay for them and continue playing your VC games through Wii mode.

The average consumer is never going to transfer their games to the Wii U.  It's just not consumer friendly enough.  The average consumer who does figure out how to do it has no clue why Nintendo wants extra money in the e-shop for the game they own already.  There is no clear communication as to what your money gets.  It's too complicated!  This seems to be a trend with the Wii U.  The Wii was pretty much fool proof for the consumer.  The Wii U is just too complicated.  

I read blogs on Nintendo every day and I didn't know the answer to the questions I asked on here and it seems like a lot of other people have no clue either.  Considering my last post on here was back in 2009 before 2 weeks ago.  I did not participate in your earlier conversation.
