The chances for 1080° Snowboarding appearing on VC soon are VERY HIGH! It was one of the early '98 games, and it's an original game by Nintendo. There were some licensed snowboards though (Lamar) but just like Wave Race 64 they would cut out the licensed advertisements and make Wii advertising instead.
And there's also hope for Killer Instinct, seeing that one of the characters (Chief Thunder) makes a cameo appearance in Donkey Kong Country 2. As far as I'm aware, Killer Instinct was developed for Nintendo. If you look at the credits, all of the copyrights go to Nintendo.
At least Rare says, it's completely off to Nintendo what of their back catalogue is going to be released on VC. |
