Third parties are doing much better with collections. No one wants to pay $5 for a dose of nostalgia that you play once. But many of these companies are releasing 5-10 game collections for $14.99-$19.99 which is a better proposition for all. Having the NSO Nes/SNES games in one place is perfect, and I'm happy to pay the subscription for that, plus a ton more, for games that I really rarely ever play. It's not the Wii era anymore. Most of us have already scratched whatever itch was there. Super Metroid gets played on the regular, Link to the Past gets loaded up now and again, and occasionally I'll boot up an old SMB title, but again, we've been revisiting those classics since 2006. The only thing I really miss from Virtual Console was the music. That song was fire.
