N64= Big Titles. Therefore, they are released slower then the the console games. If we had lots of N64 games, its possible that A) The other consoles get overshadowed and B) we d fill our Wii memory too quickly.

I m guessing an increase of releases will happen when Ninty has gotten its First Party Release out the way (Well most of them, since the Pokemon Stadiums might not happen due to the Trasfer Pak). Then hopefully, the Third Party gold (And crap) will roll in.

But if anything, it's the 3rd party stuff that I am awaiting; especially those from western publishers (which we lack greatly).

I agree that if they did release like 5 nintendo 64 games on the virtaul console a month, then we might fill our memory to quickly.

Anyway, if Nintendo ever admits that low memory on the Wii was a huge mistake, maybe we will get some form of external memory to handle more of these games.

And consider the fact that they weren't that many games released on the N64 :/

I mean in comparison to PlayStation which had like a million games. The N64 had some real gems (a lot of them are already released) but fewer "middle class" games. It's about the same on the Wii at the moment.

The thing is that they really don't have to do anything - just do a system update that allows direct playing of VC games from a SD card or USB drive. My drive is already full and it's a hassle transferring the games to/from the SD card.

I really like the Wii, but that's an annoyance for me. How any company can think a 512MB hard drive is big enough in this day and age (especially considering how dirt-cheap memory is nowadays) is ridiculous.
