this is such an excellent idea, and I really do hope Ninty reply with some info (even if it's just 'yes, they'll be released some time in 2007')

we should try to extend this and write off to a bunch of software companies and say 'hey, is X, Y and Z coming to the virtual console?', i'd personally die if Secret Of Evermore came to VC...

The virtual console is one hell of a great idea, but people are dubious of it at the minute due to the rather odd games being released on it... nintendo need to make an impact and release a BIG game (granted, SFII was a step in the right direction!)
