the wii came with promises of loads of popular games for the virtual console, games that would be cheaper then other 3rd gen systems, it advertised mind blowing games like metroid prime 3, SSBB, mario galaxy, but yet theres games haven't even gotten a release date yet.

I thought i would be the last to think this, but i feel kinda jibbed!

Give it time, at least we got zelda. You just have to be patient. If they released all these games so soon, then what would we have to look forward to?

they should release the popular games with a period of time between each, cos im sure most people wont buy like 5 games in a period of a few months

I think the have all been relegated to december because their release date is TBC. I would expect some earlier, some in dec, and maybe some later.

i spose its better than waiting for the wii to come out alltogether(lol that sounds funny but i didnt mean it like that) i recon its better off bringing out the wii right before xmas rather then bringing it out later on with a better launch line up.

They need to pull their finger out.... no airy fairy excuses there is danger of this becoming the second version of the cube.... however there is the potential of this being the next super nintendo its all up to nintendo what happens next

No doubt the Mario games will be out before december because of consumers interest!! Like people want the mario games as they go with the wii without them people would not have bought the wii until there was a price drop!

Hopefully they hit the Virtual Console games that we all 'REALLY WANT' in the mean time to keep people interested and playing the wii..... this will work.....but if people start drifting to other systems then its curtains

Like i said they cant let people start playing other things.... ive been tempted once or twice to get a 360 for something to do.... ill probably get me a ds instead but they really need to keep peoples interest and excitement with the wii

Well its nice to want everything here and now, welcome to the internet generation ahehe.

But out of all the next gen console launches, really this is the place to be, PS3 is worse, Xbox 360 was okay.. depends on your tastes

For a launch its pretty dam good, I have like 3 or 4 imports lined up for this/next month, if they dont slip will post the dates here.

peace

This is exactly why the VC games exist and why you can pick up quality GC titles for cheap. Get the older Metroid Primes, Tales of Symphonia and Resident Evil 4. That'll get u by till the other Wii games come out.

The VC is starting to suck! & ive have had a GC since day one of its release, ive finished most games 2-3 times.
