It finally looks like Nintendo is feeling constraints coming from all sides, given that they are making original Wii titles available for download via the console's Internet service, Virtual Console.

Nintendo's not Stopping at 100 VC Classic Titles - 3 More Today

As every week goes by, Nintendo makes available three new classic titles, up on Wii's Internet service, the Virtual Console (if we can use the adjective "new" when talking about "classic" titles, which are "old").

Wii's Virtual Console - Now You Can See What You're Downloading

With all the next-gen consoles out there with fancy Internet services showing off NEO-GEO/SNK titles from the old arcade days, when we used to steal change from mom's purse to go play them, they sure make a big fuss about it. But, as it turns out, all three major console manufacturers today (Sony, Nintendo and ...

Sega MEGA DRIVE Frenzy - Virtua Fighter 2 on Virtual Console

Although today's news brings yet another oldie to the Wii's Virtual Console service, I'm not going to criticize the lack of next-gen titles, over the abundance of old NES, SNES and Sega systems titles, because this is one of the most beloved classics ever. Originally released for Sega's MEGA DRIV...

3 New Classics Hit Nintendo's Virtual Console

Nintendo - 124 Titles for the Wii and DS

The part with the Wii titles, I get - Nintendo's next-gen console (so to speak), is in need of some games (people can't play Wii sports and Zelda forever), but the DS? 79 titles? What are we, talking a 10 year time-frame here? And to think that some of the 45 new ones launching on the Wii are likely Virtua...

24 NEO-GEO Titles to Launch on Wii's Virtual Console

What did I tell you? NEO-GEO arcade games are making a huge comback. All three next-gen consoles today have at least two old arcade titles available for users to download via their Internet service, but the Wii - just like on every other level - beats its rivals at this category too.IGN post an article entitled "The ...
