Nintendo of America president and COO Reggie Fils-Aime has confirmed that premium downloadable content is possible on the Wii.
Speaking to Game Informer magazine, Fils-Aime said: "If our licensee partners want to go in that direction [premium downloadable content], it's certainly possible in our system." Fils-Aime also took the opportunity to reaffirm Nintendo's plans for downloadable content. "If you've gotten to a particular part in a game, we could push content out to you, so you get to battle a new boss," he said. "Maybe you get a new artefact; maybe you get a new weapon."
The Simpsons: Hit and Run, The Legend of Dragoon, and Chrono Trigger would benefit substantially from a modern remake.
The Xenosaga trilogy, the Wild Arms games, Xenogears, Parasite Eve, Dino Crisis, Suikoden. The Warriors game I know nothing about but it looks interesting. Anybody can do a list of games they want to see get modernized I would lose my shit if Namco brought the Xenosaga trilogy to modern consoles.
Modders have cooked up something pretty special – a Wii console which is small enough to fit on your keys. A wee Wii.
The motion-controlled maverick of a console that had everyone from age 9 to 99 swing a TV remote to bowl and painstakingly recreating themselves as Miis, had its share of hits, but even so, some titles didn’t quite get their due.
With the success of XBL combined w/ DL content, Nintendo and Sony realize that it is a good feature. I think it is awesome how we will be able to play old Nintendo games by DLing them from a 'Marketplace'.
Finally nintendo is going the right path and putting the right cards on the table.
