   If they re-released official controllers to go with the games (No Other controller can emulate a N64 Controller as good as it’s original counter part) it would be awesome. we could re-live those memories as close as possible…

      I bought some dongle that connect to my wii remotes – they let me plug in nes/snes controllers.

      The N64-compatible one however works via the GCN controller port – bit of an issue with Wii U.

   $0.30US huh. . . either that’s a spelling error or really cheap.

   Regardless, what’s the bet they’ll be $6.00AUS down here much like the cheapest available NES title on the 3DS.

   Charging Australians 2x as much is par of the course, but 20x. . .

      It is also $0.30AU here, but it’s marked as a sale price (and I assume it’s the same everywhere else as well). The full price is $6.50AU.

      Edit: According to the email I got from Nintendo, the sale price lasts for 30 days; the full price for SNES games will be $10.40AU; and the upgrade price for bringing over some Wii Virtual Console games is $1.30AU and $1.95 for NES and SNES games respectively.

   The big question though… Is is sucky PAL conversions with squashed screen, dull colours and slow action? Or have they actually gone in and fixed it up? Because as awesome as the Wii Virtual Console was, having those botchy old PAL versions as the only option was pretty sucky, especially since homebrew emulators gave a better experience…
