When Nintendo revealed its online plans and the ‘Classic Games’ Collection’ in it, earlier this month we knew Virtual Console wouldn’t be talked about at E3 by Nintendo. At least nothing would have been revealed.

We know that our fans, our players, want access to all of our digital content, we know that. What we’re working through is, ‘okay, what’s going to be the best way to make that happen, to make that available?’ Certainly, we recognize there’s an appetite for all of our great legacy content.
