Joel Share Posted December 3, 2006 Actually some games will only support the classic controller, i suggest getting a classic controller and GC controller as you'll be guaranteed full compatibility. I believe Mario 64 only supports the classic controller and Nintendo have said others will only support the classic controller. Nope, it's fine with the GC controller. http://wii.nintendo.com/virtualconsole.jsp And yes, I have it so I'm not just going by the table on that page. Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew Veteran Share Posted December 3, 2006 Are VC games a one off payment? Or after deleting them you're charged to download them again? Link to post Share on other sites
Sheppard Share Posted December 3, 2006 I wanna play one 1st but I'm seriously considering it just for Zelda. Thats the only reason im getting mine, was hoping for Mario Galaxy as well but thats a year off now :( Link to post Share on other sites
azz0r_wugg Share Posted December 3, 2006 I decided I didn't want one, then last week it hit me I really wanted one. However I've left it to late, cant get a pre-order anywhere. Link to post Share on other sites

nvme Share Posted December 4, 2006 Actually some games will only support the classic controller, i suggest getting a classic controller and GC controller as you'll be guaranteed full compatibility. I believe Mario 64 only supports the classic controller and Nintendo have said others will only support the classic controller. all of the games in the virtual console list right now support both. i looked.

Lingwo Share Posted December 4, 2006 What i am saying though is that is better to get the classic controller as it will support every VC game now and in the future. Link to post Share on other sites
DrCheese Share Posted December 4, 2006 I was going to get one(A friend had it on preorder for me) but I only really wanted to play Zelda... after a lot of thinking I've decided to cancel it and just get Zelda on the GC and a component lead on ebay or something. I can't really justify spending ?240 for a new console for one game that I can already play on existing stuff that I have. That and upcoming games for the wii are rather naff at the moment.

multimediatechy Share Posted December 4, 2006 i was considering buying this at some point - i'm not impressed with that sport game that they have been showing though to be honest!!! looks to simple and babyish - if they have decent games then i would consider it more.
