Via digg: Nintendo Wii Virtual Console games just ROMS and HTML files?
I think it's kind of funny that they where able to play these on SNES9x. I don't blame Nintendo for doing this, it's the logical and money saving thing to do. (How else do you expect them to work?) But! Doesn't that mean they should be able to pump these things out more frequently? Then again, I don't think they're too concerned. What was the last prolific game released on the Virtual Console? Super Metroid? Wasn't that in August? I suppose Harvest Moon was in February though...
Either way, I'm convinced that Nintendo is only motivated by money right now. That's why they don't announce games until two months before they come out. Did you even know that Mario Kart was coming to the Wii in April until a month or so ago? No. But now you do and they've saved millions on advertising and hype by being so damn secretive. Great strategy, dicks. To me that's another reason not to buy a Wii if I have no idea what I'm investing in. Sure, there are certainties like Mario and Zelda, but other than that, you're going to be twiddling your thumbs with nothing to do.
Also, what's with the complete neglect of the DS? You've got Professor Layton and Ninja Gaiden. Can you name any other recent DS games? Nope. You can't, because they don't exist because Nintendo is seemingly focused solely on the Wii.
