It wouldn't. Hence the false rumor.

Well, uh. Do you know what April Fool's Day is? ;] I believe that's the "false rumor" to which Shortay is referring.

Looks like the link from the original post isn't working--at least for me--but you can see the original post here.

As for why the VB might show up on the VC--it probably wouldn't. I can't imagine how that would work out with the thing's visor gimmick. But among those it didn't give splitting headaches, the VB does have some dedicated fans, and apparently had one or two really neat games. Maybe we'll get a remake of the VB Wario Land game?

Neither. It was rumored that the VC was going to be released on the VC, which was quickly proved the be false. You asked 'why would it go on the VC', and I said it most likely never would, which is displayed through the evident falseness of the rumor.
