They need to make this thing seamless and fair, first and foremost. After this is settled, I feel that they need to focus on getting more support for the NES-Gamecube. Switch should be able to handheld Gamecube emulation fairly well. I don't think they should focus on DS, Wii, 3DS, or Wii U titles on the virtual console however. Not only would that require more engineering and technology than is already in the switch, it's just not necessary or ideal for the Switch.

At most we're getting Wii U enhanced ports and that's it on the DS and Wii side of things.

Sure, how hard is to put 5 or ten nes roms and a emulator in it? And it will grow with time, as always.



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

The only thing i know for sure is that this time Nintendo is preparing themselves good for this console. So yes, it will.



If Nintendo was smart it would have hundreds of games on day 1.

NES, SNES, N64, etc. but especially DS and 3DS. You should be able to basically access the DS/3DS back catalog on it.



Nintendo always likes to capitalize on their old games, so VC is guaranteed, though I actually think this won't be a day 1 thing :p

It should be day one...
I hope they learned their lesson after the horrific implementation of the VC on Wii U...
While the VC implementation on the Wii was far from ideal, it was certainly better than the Wii U...



Have a nice day...

I'd be very stressed if it doesn't. I hope they also allow us to transfer our Wii U/3DS VC games for free. No discounted price bullshit. With MyNintendo account and shared NNID, it should be easy, but all dem $$$ might say otherwise.
I'd be fine with discounted prices on Wii U ports though, but that's not likely.

I wont get the NS at launch anyway

I think that the dream is dead in that regard, to he honest.



I think it will, but the other question is, how many of the Wii U ones will make a return day 1?

I think so. I really hope it will have all the ones from the WiiU. Releasing one or two a week is not acceptable a third time.
