There are some good classics available on VC, but they need to make a new service on Wii Shop so that smaller developers can make games for Wii, just like XBLA games and PSN games.

Wiiware is Nintendo-made channels for Wii, not original downloadable games.

Is there anywhere detailing this further? And why would they call it Wiiware when they already use the term in the Wii Shop for their channel downloads?

I'm sorry that's not correct.

Did you just get a Wii? You seem to be a real novice when it comes to the system.

What I find helps new gamers like yourself is to go around this site's Wii section and maybe check out a few other site's Wii offerings. That way you can learn what is coming out, what games are on the way, and how the system and channels are set up.

I hope that helps

The Final Fantasy and Dr. Mario games look the most promising to me.

I'm sorry that you're so condescending, I didn't know some obscure fact so I must be a new gamer?

WiiWare has been well known for a while, you should know what you're talking about before you complain about a system.

Show me where I was "complaining," first of all. Second, I looked over the boards briefly and on my Wii and upcoming games and I did not see anything regarding this. I didn't know I was required to write a term paper on the subject before I was allowed to make a post on a message board about it. You act as though I have destroyed your life by posting here without having read one specific article from 5 months ago.

I apologize, I thought that was a complaint. However, I cannot for example, go to the Xbox 360 boards and say "Xbox really needs Banjo Kazoie." Why not? Firstly, because I would sound like an idiot. Secondly, because these boards have search engines and I could just type in "Banjo Kazoie" and see if this topic is old.

What should I have searched for? " Wiiware"? I didn't even know that was what they called it. "Original downloadable games" yields only this topic as a result.

wiiware is a new channel coming out this spring where you will be able to download original games. bomberman, and a final fantasy game will be put on the wiiware channel and you can buy them with wii points. Currently the wiiware section of the wiishop channel is used for buying channels, but it will soon be able to download original games,....i'm pretty sure its supposed to be late Q1 2008
