Shame it's not coming out to the Wii's VC, but I guess that's all the more reason to buy a Wii U. Smart move Nintendo.

Nintendo took a while, and probably due to legal reasons, but finally! They are actually listening to us!

Yes it is coming to the Wii U VC.

Why are there so many threads based off of this NDirecr when there's already a master thread? oh well.


anyway, Earthbound news is fantastic.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing. Hopefully it will eventually be in one thread.

I said it wasn't coming out on the Wii's VC, but it will on the Wii U's VC and that it was a smart decision to move console sales.

I was told by someone at Nintendo that this was never going to happen. Good thing he was wrong! Love it when people who think they know things are wrong. :-)

My bad. Anyway, Nintendo shutting down some online support of Wii channels it's basically a dead console.

Great, now i can relive the nightmare that is the intro screen.

[Crispy Bacon]

Never played Earthbound... I may have to try it sometime.

I have mixed feelings about the release. I'm glad it's finally being released. But I was also hoping it would stay on the SNES due to collecting purposes. Either way I'm still happy about the announced.

I wouldn't worry about it at all. A physical copy will still hold tremendous value as a collector's item regardless of the fact that it's getting a digital release.

Has it been confirmed whether this is coming to the European VC as well? Considering the original Earthbound wasn't even released over here...
