Oh, I though it was the first, what are the others?
Also in the site they shown another RPG for SNES VC, no idea about thr title though.
nvm I saw the list posted by robin
They need to come to the NA & EU, So many of those title would be day 1 for me.

This is the one thing I want from Square on the Wii U. I've never managed to finish VI, but the gamepad would be the perfect device to do it on. Unfortunately I have an NA Wii U...
They care alot more about the eshop, its massively improved since it started. They care less about the Wii U & 3DS VC which is a shadow of Wii's.
Nintendo didn't even see great returns from the massive Wii VC investment. Its not hard to see why they are being picky and slow with their releases on the Wii U since it has a tenth of the userbase. Don't forget fan favourites don't always mean lots of sales.
Man, why the fuck are we not seeing these S-E releases in NA??? I had FFIV, FFVI, Secret of Mana and Chrono Trigger on my Wii VC. My Wii crapped out before I got a Wii U, so I was never able to transfer my games. Is S-E making the decision to not release these games over here or is it the usual and expected incompetence of NoA? This shit is ridiculous.

Maybe for the extra little bits but yeah, a sane person would just grab the SFC version that's already there.
Terrible music and the colours are going to look so bad on the TV.

Who, Square-Enix? This is their 20th release.

Yesterday's thread was based on this actually.
Well Nintendo can't release SE's games on it.
The music on this version is awful and you can't patch it like the GBA original. But the new localization is nice, it puts everything in line with modern FF standard nomenclature.
It also has 4 new espers, new ultimate weapons and armor, two new post game dungeons, and a Mega boss.

Can't get this with the botched music. Even with all the extras.
Music plays a huge role in Final Fantasy for me.

That's fine. Give the US Chrono Trigger DS instead.

Boo to all those who brought down Kobun's thread from yesterday. Those threads are a GAF staple!

Honestly I'm probably gonna get the steam version instead.
This doesn't make any sense in any context. A highly prized high quality Zero Mission isn't released but Pinball or other crappy NES games are financially viable?
THIS. The audio in the GBA version is a pale imitation of the original.

No, I didn't want to play this at all in North America. Thank you NOA for making sure I won't. You're doing fine work.

It quite shocking. WiiWare was full of amazing games, even rarities like Castlevania Rondo of Blood. And it still working...
WiiU vc was supposed to improve not being bare bones.
Oh well

Wii U sales must be enough to satisfy Reggie at the moment. We know how they play this game. They'll release this kind of stuff over the summer to fill gaps in the release schedule. VC is like their reserve tank.
