Forums - Nintendo - Will Gamecube Games become Wii U Virtual Console Titles? Is it possible?

zorg1000 on 25 April 2013

The more popular titles will probably have HD remakes but games that arent as big/popular will go to the vc

I'm emulating the shit out of the Gamecube and loving it. My favourite console of all time with my favourite games. Nintendo can go suck it, there are tons of people doing a better job than them for free.

It even runs on my beloved Linux.

So I have a Gamecube controller and the Gamecube games library I use to own, but I'm playing it in HD with super increased frame rates. WHY would I care about VC.


All the GameCube games were program to do 3D, which explains all the 3D Screenshots of GameCube games as you can see in my signature if you try the gamecrunch.co site and gbatemp.net site.

Plus 3D makes games look much more crisper looking then gimmicky HD, no offense but lately I have been questioning the very use of HD when 3D standard definition looks much more crisper looking. Plus all GameCube games are 60 fps, so there's nothing to complain about in their frame rate. But the PS2 & Xbox 1 is only 30 fps, but the 360 & PS3 is 60 fps because they copy Nintendo's frame rate from GameCube.

I'm pretty sure i remember Reggie saying it was possible.

We just have to tell Nintendo more clearly what we want to see. I would like to see GBA games on the 3DS virtual console, and i would like to see GC games on the Wii U. Theres alot to draw from.


The GameCube and Game Boy Advance games were made to do 3D, so it's gonna take a lot more longer time then you think.

But they could release the GameCube games in 2D to start with, and have updates to play in 3D later on. Plus the Gameacube also did 60 fps, so you're cover there.

You can check out 3D screenshots of GameCube games from these links from my signature:

You can visit that from 3DS Web Browser

You have to use your PC to download the rar or zip files and extract them to put in SD card to view in 3D on your 3DS.

Its possible but I would rather see HD remakes like the Wind Waker HD *_*!


But GameCube games are made for 3D, and 3D SD looks much more crisper looking then 2D HD.

If they do, I hope they create a new pro controller than is essentially the gc controller but it has both right and left bumpers and 2 analog sticks. I really don't like that the wiiU gamepad doesn't have analog triggers...that is really the only thing that bothers me with the wiiU.


The Wii U GamePad controller dos have analog triggers......they click when you press down on me, because they are also buttons and a Joystick as a Joystick pre Analog.

I don't think it, I know it, because everyone who has seen a 3D Movie these past 2 years agrees with me.

And also everyone who plays the 3DS with the "3D ON over 95% of the time", agrees with me too.

And that's with a fraction of the resolution that these things have.

Idk about that, most of the people on here and people I know personally disagree about 3D making movies/games look better. But my post wasnt trying to discredit 3D, I just dont see the need to talk about it in threads that have nothing to do with it

Not going to happen, not powerful enough to emulate it without massive investment - which we all know Nintendo doesn't do.

Mario All-stars anniversary...enough said.

It doesn't need to emulate it, thanks to Wii backwards compatibility it should be already set to run the almost identical (but slower) Gamecube architecture.
