Line 1:
{{trope}}
While [[Xbox Live Arcade]] and [[Playstation Network]] decided to focus mainly on new games, Nintendo originally decided that they should put their 20-year game backlog to good use, and got former rivals [[TurbografxTurbo SixteenGrafx 16|Hudson]], [[Neo Geo|SNK]], [[Commodore Sixty Four64|Commodore]], and even former [[Arch Enemy]] [[Sega Genesis|Sega]] on board for it.
 
The games on the service for the [[Wii]] came from these systems (more will hopefully be added later):
* [[Nintendo Entertainment System]]
* [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System]]
* [[Nintendo Sixty Four|Nintendo 64]]
* [[Sega Master System]]
* [[Sega Genesis]]
Line 11:
* [[Neo Geo]]
* [[MSX]] in Japan
* [[Commodore Sixty Four|Commodore 64]] in North America & Europe
* [[Arcade Game|Arcade Games]] via Virtual Console Arcade
 
Line 19:
* [[Game Boy Advance]] <ref>Currently only planned to be available to the members of the Ambassador program.</ref>
* [[Sega]] [[Game Gear]]
* [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] (Originally exclusive to Ambassadors, and some games still are with this number having decreased slightly as of 2012, but as of the release of ''[[Super Mario Bros. (Videovideo Gamegame)|Super Mario Bros]]'' to non-Ambassadors it's one of the main systems, and the release of ''[[Punch Out]] Featuring Mr. Dream'', which ''was not'' an Ambassador game, showed that the games Ambassadors received are not the only ones planned for release)
* [[TurbografxTurbo SixteenGrafx 16|TurboGrafx-16]] <ref>NEC released a handheld [[TurbografxTurbo SixteenGrafx 16|TurboGrafx-16]] called the TurboExpress, which played almost every TurboChip game, thereby making them into portable games.</ref>
* 3D Classics (A series of past games from the [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]], [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SNES]], and even [[Arcade Game|Arcade]] games that have the ability to be seen in 3D; these are mostly based on games originally developed by Nintendo itself aside from the occasional game licensed from another company.)
