Earthbound NOW available on Wii U VC!?

[noiseredux]

Again though, SNES VC isn't on 3DS right now. I don't think it's fair to complain about Earthbound not being available on it. Maybe if we were talking about an NES game or something.

It's fair to complain about Earthbound not being on Wii VC though right? Cuz lots of SNES games are there. And y'know... a lot of people own Wii's.

They probably don't want to support wii any more and want to give people extra motivations to get a U

Obviously.
We would all do the same thing if we were in charge. We would also implement proper and unified accounts between 3DS and Wii U as well.

I am excited to pick this up when I get home, always heard the praise it got, but never played it myself.

On a semi related note, I also heard that Shantae was released on the 3ds VC today, can anyone confirm? If so, today is a great day for VC releases since we are getting 2 great, very expensive in physical form games

Yeah it was. Good day for virtual console.

well of course this is what they're doing. It's stupid though.

How many WiiU's will be sold just to get Earthbound on VC? My guess is "not many."

And how many Earthbound's would be sold if it were available on the Wii VC? My guess is "a fucking lot."

Hopefully thatll make it drop from the $240ish price it has been sitting at for a while.

My answer would be "not many" for both questions. Now if they put Earthbound in 3DS VC, then it'd be a lot.

I doubt Earthbound VC sales would go up more than 50 if it were released on the Wii.
