8th lutz Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 http://www.joystiq.com/2007/05/03/impossib...hannel-forever/ For fans of the Epyx classic, Impossible Mission - more good news! It seems that Nintendo will be adding IM to the shopping channel - BUT: It's not going to be a Virtual console game. Just a standalone game with an updated and a retro version. I expect more orignal or remake games like this to be the Wii shop channel. I remembered Nintendo mentioning last year that there will be some orginal games on the Wii shop Channel. I expect System 3 to do more of this for the wii with it being download on the Wii shop channel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zombiecraig Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 I seem to recall reading somewhere that The Last Ninja may also be available for Wii at some point in a similar style, retro and updated versions. That may also being released outside of the VC, I guess. Were C64 games a possibility for the VC? I thought I read somewhere that it was happening. Or was that simply speculation?

liveinabin Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 Pretty sure it was just speculation. The Wii is getting Neo Geo and, if I remember rightly, MSX games though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bilnick Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 Any word on the price? I remember this game from the 80's, but not many details. Retro games updated and released for $5 or so like Microsoft does would be pretty nice. One can only dream of a demo version on the Wii!

I wish there was a word on the price too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCHufnagel Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 ... still waiting for saturn games on the VC... sigh I don't see how the Wii could emulate the Saturn though. Even dis-regarding the size of a Saturn ISO, it takes at a minumum a 3 gig P4 PC to run a Saturn emulator right. And the Wii's specs just don't stack up to that. Maybe if the games were ported for the download service it could work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
