Several of us who own a Nintendo Wii are left wondering how games are selected to become Virtual Console titles. I’m beginning to suspect that many of the games I remember playing (and have yet to be released for the Virtual Console) may be locked up in licensing issues. Here’s a list of some of the games I’d like to see made available:

Battletoads
Double Dragon 2
Dr. Mario
Dragon Warrior
Final Fantasy
Metroid (added August 13, 2007)
Super Mario Bros. 2 (added June 2, 2007)
Super Mario Bros. 3 (added November 2007)
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2
Tetris
Yoshi (added June 9, 2007)

Now, Yoshi wasn’t really a game I miss playing, but it was a good puzzle game in its time and certainly seems more appropriate than many of the games that are available as Virtual Console titles. I never played the Final Fantasy series on Nintendo, but they were popular at the time.
