After playing Pokemon Snap for the Wii (and letting you post pics of Pokemon) I was thinking, what would be some neat additions to virtual console games that you guys would like to see?

I would like to see a few online features for games like Mario Party or Pokemon Stadium, and maybe wii-sensor controls for games like Duck Hunt and Yoshi's Safari.

What do you think?

I think it would be cool to add things like that. But Nintendo only enhances the graphics I'm pretty sure.
I would play Mario Party 2/3 online. That makes me think that they should have made Mario Party 8 online. >.>
Duck Hunt with the Wii Zapper would be pretty cool. Especially with improved sound and more full graphics.
If they added Banjo-Tooie with decision for everytime you play, if you want the Bottle's revenge mode, I would for sure get it.

Mario Kart 64 could have had an online feature but they'd have to re-develop the game. Games like Pacman and Super Mario Bros. could have leaderboards for high scores and stuff like that. I don't know, there's a lot Nintendo could do but they still have the WiiWare section to worry about as well as the Virtual Console, so I guess we'd have to wait and see what happens.

I think leaderboards would be the best idea. It would extend gameplay without having too much that would be needed to be done.

It also wouldn't be too hard to implement. They implemented the picture thing in Pokemon Snap which shouldn't have been too hard to do, so I'm sure Nintendo could consider updating these games in the future, which they should do.

For Mario Kart 64:
Someone needs to send these ideas to Nintendo. I'm pretty sure they take it into consideration.
if some people don't like the idea of having new things added, there should be an option to which you can choose 'N64 version' 'New version' or something.

Well, with Mario Kart Wii coming, I don't think that will be happening for a while. 12 player online = pure awesomeness!

A lot of these seem like good ideas that would give people a reason to get the game again. And I know for a fact that they can upgrade the VC games and have you download the updated ones for free if you've already bought them.

I really like the leaderboard idea you've thought of. It would be really cool.

I thought since Microsoft did it for games like Pacman on the XBLA, wouldn't it make sense to do it on the Wii as well?

EDIT: Mario Strikers Charged, Dragon Ball Z: BT3, and Guitar Hero III have Leaderboards as well.

The thing is, all they do is convert code, edit out bugs, edit new features in. Nintendo takes the code and just uses an emulator, similar to how the XBox Originals work. This is why the XBO's dont have achievements, or online if it wasnt originally in the game. They'd have to mess with code and they're lazy.

Smash Bros. online. Super Mario Kart online. Downloadable content for Ocarina of Time and A Link to the Past. Mii integration in something. Interaction with Wii or DS games (like Pokemon maybe).

Super Smash Bros. would be a great idea for an online title on the VC, as well as Super Mario Kart.

Never gonna happen, Microsoft owns Rare now. Nintendo can only release the Donkey Kong games, as they own the characters that appear in them.

It's Nintendo, the only way they would add online to VC titles would be if they forced you to use friend code !@#$%.

Friend Codes don't even bug me anymore. To me, they are just there. Anyway, I think Majora's Mask should be up by now. I wish they would add a picture taker like Pokemon Snap except you could take 100 screenshots a day. :D

Hey, that's actually an excellent idea. I would just take a picture of the moon at 12:00 on the last day...that would be sweet.

I actually meant to put 10 not 100 but 100 ftw, lol! The easiest way to take screenshots would be pressing the map button on the gamecube or classic controller, which would be the d-pad.

What kinds of pictures would you take? Well I guess there are probably a medioker portion of things you would take pictures of, but it would get kinda useless.
