Forums - Nintendo - What would you like to see come to The Wii's VC in the long run?

     One look at the Virtual Console shows that it has an amazing collection of games from gaming's past.  However one thing that also becomes apparent is that the more great games that are added to the Virtual Console, the fewer great games that there are to be added to the Virtual Console in the future.  Two ways that Nintendo is seeking to allieviate this and bring more downloadable content to the Wii is with their Wii Ware line of new games and the recently unveiled Virtual Console Arcade Line of classic arcade games.

 

     How would you like to see Nintendo expand this service in the past?

 

     One thing that I would like to see would be a line of classic eighties pc adventure games like the King's Quest series from Roberta Williams and other great games from Sierra like PoliceQuest, Gabriel Knight, SpaceQuest, and Lesiure Suit Larry and Maniac Mansion and the Secret of Monkey Island games from Lucas Arts, as well as classic PC roleplaying and other types of games from the Golden Age of PC gaming come to the Virtual Console in a Virtual Console Computer line. 

 

     Of course they would have to introduce a Wii keyboard to accomodate some of these games. 



Heavens to Murgatoids.

I want to play 'Darkmist' from the arcades.

I've got almost every game on MAME so I can play all the ones I played as a child, teen and young adult but as far as I know Darkmist has never been emulated.

Having said all that, there is no chance!



I just want TMNT turtles in Time and Knuckles Chaotix

i think the wii already supports a usb keyboard for the internet channel, and a few games.(like animal crossing)

 

they were able to implement the ir pointer for a arcade game, so i think they could do keyboard support for classic computer games.

 

it would laso be nice if the wii could actually emulate some semi-modern pc games, such as the first rollercoaster tycoon (the best one imo).



come try out the computer game i've been working on for my high school senior project, titled sling ball. http://vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=47568

I was under the impression that you could just use a regular USB keyboard with the Wii. Was I wrong?
