Default Most Wanted Consoles for the VC

I'd like to see more consoles come to the virtual console obviously but it's hard to choose what might be possible and what's just wishful thinking. Most of the consoles I want are the ones that I've never played before so I'm not sure if it would be entirely worth it. But any new consoles are a while away anyway. How about these?

Neo Geo - We know this is coming, hopefully sooner rather than later.
Saturn - Can't be too much harder to emulate this than the N64 can it?
Master System - Is it worth getting the MS for it's handful of good games?
Commodore 64 - I'd like to check out some old classics but will they sell?
MD 32X/Mega CD - There isn't as many classic games for these as far as I know, any ideas?

well Saturn and Sega CD games take up a lot of space so a SD or hard drive update would be accentual.

MSX and Neo Geo are confirmed (MSX only for Japan so far though).

The following, I'd say, are likely:

-Master System
-Game Boy/Colour
-Virtual Boy
-Game Gear
-Commodore 64
-Sega 32X

I would prefer however, if the successor to the DS had some sort of online service with GB(C), VB and GG games instead of them being on the Wii.

The following could possibly happen if the Wii's memory somehow increases (External harddrive many people have suggested):

-TurboDuo
-Sega CD
-Sega Saturn

Anything after the N64 is completely out of the question.

Atari 2600 - Breakout, Yar's Revenge, Adventure, E.T...what more could you want? and it was before NES so should be rather easy

250 Points per game would be a bargain

not sure about the game gear or gameboy/gameboy colour and I defiantly don’t want the virtual boy since I don’t want to go blind.

The VB has an option to display games in GB colours (Black/white/shades of gray). Plus the VB has some terrific games, Mario Clash is an extremely unique take on Mario Bros. and improves on it a ton, Virtual Boy Wario Land is one of the best in the Wario series, Mario's Tennis is the first Mario Tennis game and Galactic Pinball is considered by some to be the prequel to Metroid Prime Pinball.

I think it's more likely that ninty will stick with home consoles at first. Since it wouldn't really be a virtual "console." GB games probably wouldn't look so hot on a tv, maybe if they were downloaded to a DS?
