Wii Virtual Console: What Is It?
Old-time video gamers know what a drag it is to lose your old games every time you get a new console. Oh, the joys of planned obsolescence; they make you buy new games because your old games won’t work on your new system. But now, with the Wii Virtual Console, you don’t have to lose those old classic games like Donkey Kong and the older Mario Brothers games. Your Wii can play many of the games that were made for Nintendo, Super Nintendo, Nintendo 64, and the Sega Genesis.
The Wii Virtual Console (VC) is a section of the Wii Shop Channel, which is an online service where you can download games and other software. The Virtual Console library has lots of pre-Wii games that have been adapted for use on the Wii console. The games that you download from the Virtual Console can be stored in the Wii console’s built-in 512 MB flash memory drive. The newer consoles with Version 4.0 system software let you store and play games on a removable Secure Digital (SD) card. However, games on an SD card can only be played on the Wii console that they were purchased on.
