Yeah I made tools a million years ago to properly inject roms, screenshot and all, into the official virtual console emulator. It just becomes impractical if you want to put a whole set on there.
pbj: not sure what you mean man... you can navigate the wii menu via the classic controller or a sideways wiimote as well as via the pointer. I think via the analog stick of a nunchuck as well. It's always been that way afaik.
I honestly don't think it's a bad value, for the record. It's 60 dollars, so that's two bucks a game and that doesn't even include the cost of the unit or the gamepad. They also managed, unlike most plug n play systems, to actually have a solid gamelist. Sure I prefer some of those titles over others, but there isn't a single stinker on the list.
