Would it really be so hard to release the same Virtual Console titles simultaneously in all territories rather than leave some of us with an anemic lineup? Whatever the case, looks like us Westerners will be eyeing the Wii's Japanese Virtual Console lineup with a tinge of jealousy for a while longer. Here's a list of Nintendo's Virtual Console lineup for the fine month of January... more than enough reason to stick indoors and play with your Wii eh? Now if they'd just fix the damn pricing...

FAMICOM TITLES
Ikki (500 points)
Ice Climber (500 points)
Zelda II: Adventures of Link (500 points)
Kid Icarus (500 points)

SUPER FAMICOM TITLES
Fire Emblem Seisen no Keifu (900 points)

NINTENDO 64
Mario Kart 64 (1000 points) W00t!

MEGA DRIVE
Bonanza Bros. (500 points)
Gain Ground (500 points)

PC ENGINE
Alien Crush (500 points)
R-Type II (500 points)
Soldier Blade (500 points)
Moto Roader (500 points)

We Need Organization

At this point, with up to 3 mario titles soon to be available, we NEED better organization - folders. Whether genre (Mario, Metroid), System (NES, SNES), or just custom, we NEED THEM. I know we have up to 6 pages of channels, but I don't wanna have to flip over just to see a whole other page of channels/downloads. I'd much rather just click a folder, click the game, and be off.

good idea

that actually is a good idea there should be a Virtual Console Channel and when u click it you can choose which system you want and then the games should be sorted alphabetically
