That game had online, so I would wonder if Nintendo would re-add online gameplay to a Wii game that gets re-released, either on a Wii mini or on Switch 2 online.
@@PotentialLegend They included Super Mario Bros. 1, 2, 3 on the NES and also the original Mario Bros. There's no way Nintendo wouldn't include one of the top rated Wii games on a mini console. It's way more likely to be there than, say, Mario Strikers or Sonic Colours.
Animal Crossing City Folk is known for being the most forgettable and underwhelming release in the series. Was literally just Wild World with barely any innovation
Imagine a Wii classic edition commercial that recreates the "Wii would like to play" campaign, kinda like how the SNES classic edition commercial was an hommage to 90's TV ads
It's too late in the evolution of gaming, games now and in the future aren't/won't be different enough from Wii games, they wouldn't just give them away in a package like that. They'll only ever remaster or just emulate them on modern hardware.
@@snertttMaybe you can put your new console onto a Wii shell and get a download code for a couple of Wii games I think. I believe N64 classic edition and game boy colour/game boy advanced classic edition is more likely
Back in 2009, my dad took me to a local game exhibition at the community college where the developers were showing off Deadly Creatures for the Wii. I remember being fascinated... but not because of the game. I didn't care about the game, I just wanted to ask them about how the Wii development kit worked (It loaded games off of SD cards! Amazing!) I distinctly remember my dad telling one of the employees, "my kid has been really into this game named Zelda lately. Have you heard of it?" Anyway, I'm pretty sure that's the most important thing an Arizona studio has ever done for game development. Edit: Oh my god, the studio still exists and is now called Rainbow Studios. I stand corrected - Arizona has made multiple games, apparently!!
@@alphaLONE I can see one reason why. Several N64 Virtual Console ports such as Sin & Punishment, Super Smash Bros, F-Zero X, & Yoshi’s Story have the Classic Controller’s buttons mapped differently from each other and not like how the original N64 Controller was mapped; that was later fixed for the Wii U Virtual Console via the Button Mapping option. Another thing is how Nintendo might emulate the games for it. Everyone, including myself, have been criticizing the lack of fixed with several games via Nintendo Switch Online (it’s also been the issue with Sega Genesis on NSO and I’m worried that the recently-included GBA might be the same situation).
The answer as to, "why doesn't Nintendo make more Classic Editions" is simple: because they're not struggling with the Switch. Big companies like Nintendo or LEGO would lean into these niche but fan-favorite items for a good value if they were in a financial slump; that's why the NES and SNES classic consoles came out and when they did. In a weird way, I kinda hope we get dives in the market so that they would cater to fans more directly. That's why every Mario anniversary is less exciting than every Kirby anniversary: Kirby entices its audience as a lesser-but-still-popular Nintendo franchise, Mario on the other hand, doesn't have to try hard when people will buy it anyways. If Mario fell out of popularity for a while, which given its history and legacy is hard to happen, then Mario would have to do something groundbreaking to come back on top. But while it sits up high for Nintendo properties, installments can be frequent but barely innovative, like the long-running New Super Mario Bros games.
yeah nintendo, sony and microsoft always do some of their coolest stuff to remain competitive when they're taking their biggest L's, but the moment they start succeeding they get all big headed and stop cuz they know they dont have to try anymore since their back on top. we'd probably see stuff like a n64 classic and mother 3 localization if the switch 2 were to flop, lmao. nintendo be keeping all sorts of stuff for their rainy day i bet
This is one of my favorite games on the switch and one of my favorite Capcom fighting games but it’s impossible to put it in a wii classic. License nightmare is the reason.
Monster Hunter fan here. Can confirm, am shook. That said, I do want to see Tri included in one of these IF online is included. For a while the online portion of Tri became lost media, and there was a huge fan project in the more niche parts of the community to get a private server of it running. Monster Hunter games all have an online 'hub' and Tri's was particularly immersive and memorable due to it being pretty large (which may have been less convenient for the player, but also made it leave a bigger inpression) and it tied into the lore with the monster Jhen Mohran, with the hub town basing some of its culture around the beast. If this hub was brought online again in an official fashion, it would mean a lot to the community that loves this game.
With the N64 as an underselling console, topped with many offerings on the Switch Online service, Nintendo wouldn't consider making a classic console for that generation.
As much as some fairly weak machines can emulate GameCube and Wii these days, I just don’t think releasing a system that solely does that seems economically viable right now. Give it some time, until the hardware cost of that emulation is actually on par with what they had to put into emulating NES and SNES, and I’m sure they’ll do it. But we’re not quite there yet.
Ship hasn’t sailed, I could see it being used as marketing for their next console that they feel needs it. So not switch 2 but if it fails then doing it for a next after that
The other problem with the N64 is that they probably wouldn't be able to put any Rare games on it and considering how prominent they were during that era that would leave a pretty big gap and a lot of online backlash
No detective work required! Wii Play Motion was acknowledged more recently, freakishly recent even. Wii Play Motion had a microgame featured in WarioWare Move It, so only about 3-4 months ago! As far as I know that’s literally the game’s only reference in any other piece of media too LOL. 2011: Wii Play Motion 2023: WarioWare Move It That’s the complete timeline lmao
Two RUclipsrs discussing the prospect of a Wii Classic Edition for over an hour? That’s like, the scientific opposite of Valentine’s Day. Like I feel my virginity becoming more obvious with each second that elapses. Thank you 🙏
I think that the only thing I'd argue with is get rid of Endless ocean and add Warioland Shake it, only argument for endless ocean is, "It's unique!" yea but like... when's the last time you heard someone say, "I JUST WANT ENDLESS OCEAN ON THE SWITCH!" It's always, "When is the next warioland game!?"
Keeping Endless Ocean, while not even giving Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn a second look is wild to me. All that talk about wanting variaty, but completely skipping the Wii's single strategy game...
@@NA-jd6wy I mean, the Wii U era had the chance to re-release Radiant Dawn as a Wii VC title, though I guess it would have been weird without Path of Radiance as well (since the Wii U never did Gamecube VC despite it running Gamecube titles via homebrew perfeclty fine)
For Fire Emblem, Nintendo did include Fire Emblem: Monsho no Nazo(FE3) on the Super Famicom Mini. As far as Radiant Dawn being an "older Fire Emblem" it is a modern Fire Emblem title mechanically. Outside of the difficulty, you can go from something like Three Houses or Engage to Radiant Dawn with no trouble. This isn't like porting older games like the first Fire Emblem or Fire Emblem Gaiden.
Yeah, a lot of people would actually recommend Path of Radiance and Radiant dawn as good options for newcomers to Fire Emblem. Path of Radiance was my introduction and then I tried Radiant Dawn but went to the GBA games before finishing it.
Little King’s Story mentioned! One of the best games I’ve ever finished. Second half is unlike anything I’ve experienced in a video game. I think something like this would really help the game too, as the janky PC rerelease has made it harder to check out the series
@@evdestroy5304I think people value the Gamecube more today than when it was new. I think they might be more successful with a Classic version than we think they'd be.
I hope the Wii classic gets an upscale option to at least 720p if it does happen. When you're a young kid, for some reason, you don't see the bad anti-aliasing and low resolution.
Epic Mickey really deserves to be on there imo. Not only did it sell well but it also has not been re-released ever and it deserves to be playable again.
yeah wario land shake it is such a fun game, and honestly kinda underrated. i feel people constanly like to take potshots on it for really arbitrary reasons outside of the shaking gimmick, which yes got annoying p quickly but not as egregious as making it the jump function like in dk country returns. but seriously listening to them cry about the aspect ratio borders? but then go on to defend a rather mediocre game like kirbys epic yawn, bruh
@@helenhomunculus5044 Yeah, I definitely think the game is remembered way too much for its artstyle and not the excellent gameplay- I love the collectathon aspect of it, no one ever mentions that! And yeah I think most of their problems with the game, while certainly valid are nitpicks (I never really had any problems with either, the shake isn't particularly obtrusive at all to me), but it if I was thinking ab what Nintendo would put on a Wii Mini id also prolly ommit it LMAO
I would be so upset if they skipped right over the N64 and Gamecube. It had such a small library in the first place you could easily put all of the fan favorite titles on it.
I personally think if this system had a new UI it would be kind of like USB loader GX if anyone don't have a homebrewed Wii here that is basically a backup loader for your Wii games and it matches the Wii UI really good
Every Nintendo Fan: we want Sin and Punishment 2, Metroid Prime 3, Wario Land Shake It and Smash Bros Brawl on the Wii Classic. Nintendo: you guys gonna get Wii Sport, Wii Play, Wii Sport Resort, Wii Party, Wii Play Motion, Wii Fit, Wii Chess, Wii Music and Mario Party 9.
I just hacked my SNES mini, it's so freakin wicked. I have the old 3ds eshop theme playing on the main menu and added gba and arcade games into the mix. It rocks.
Depending on the specific arcade games, that might dilute the idea of a mini "Nintendo" based console into becoming a custom emulation box with whatever.
@@notsyzagts7967 It definitely does, but if someone wants their hacked SNES Classic to play arcade games that have NOTHING to do with Nintendo, I say let them
im extremely nostalgic for Animal Crossing City Folk but i didn’t play Wild World. i’d spent a ton of time with the Gamecube AC so City Folk felt like a **gigantic** improvement.
Go Vacation was one of my favourite childhood games and I cannot believe the disrespect it was shown (tbf, it can't compete against WSR on a classic console)
I just bought my third Wii this year. I had a library still and some GC games, plus the accessories. But for what I want, it makes sense. I like having a lot of different ways to play games, I play light gun games on it and guitar hero, there's the racing wheel, also I use the balance board for snowboarding like Alpine Rider in the arcade and its pretty fun, its a very resonsive peripheral often overlooked. And that's my point. I like the motion control regulars like Zelda and Metroid as well as many lesser likes games because I've learned the finicky motion controls, but the real value is in those Zapper games and in using the balance board and Punch Out like I used to play it with the U Force. I always liked Nintendo for innovating and fun gameplay, and I know how to get that out of the Wii. Without all that and a deep knowledge of the library I don't know if people would get the potential. It's in all the weirdness. My Wii is my only dedicated console anymore, and I am happy with it. Stuff's pretty cheap, too.
I got bored, so i wanted to make my idea of a lineup for a nintendo DS classic. 1. New Super Mario Bros DS 2. Mario Kart DS 3. WarioWare: Touched! 4. Rhythm Heaven 5. Zelda: Phantom Hourglass 6. Zelda: Spirit Tracks 7. Super Mario 64 DS 8. Sonic Rush 9. Animal Crossing: Wild World 10. Mario & Luigi: Bowsers Inside Story 11. Kirby: Canvas Curse 12. Elite Beat Agents 13. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney 14. Picross DS 15. Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia 16. Mario vs Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem! 17. Kirby Superstar Ultra 18. Mario Party DS 19. Pokemon Heart Gold / Pokemon Soul Silver 20. Pokemon Black 2 / Pokemon White 2 21. The World Ends With You 22. Tetris DS 23. Nintendogs 24. Brain Age 25. Professor Layton and the Curious Village 26. Yoshi’s Island DS 27. Dragon Quest IX 28. Cooking Mama 29. Clubhouse Games 30. Scribblenauts
I like the lineup overall but there are some weird choices here. First of all I think you're leaning a bit much into quality over nostalgia value, which I appreciate but goes a bit far. Like DPP and B1W1 are the bestselling Pokémon games on the console, so it's weird that you not only have neither of them but also include the sequels to the latter. SSU at least sold better than Squeak Squad but I'd probably rather include the latter just for it being the more original title, along with replacing Picross DS with the arguably more iconic Picross 3D. Elite Beat Agents might also have to go just for the licensed music, and in its place I'd probably put Metroid Prime Hunters.
Rayman raving rabids 1 was such a good choice. I got my wii for Christmas in 2006, we set it up in my grandfather's kitchen and played Wii Sports & Raving Rabids since it was a launch title. It will always be ingrained in my memory of the Wii and i'm glad it even got a mention
Man, I would push for 10 WiiWare games. The fact that none of the ReBirth trilogy have a way to legally purchase them right now when Castlevania Adventure ReBirth is one of the best 2D Castlevania games of all time is a disgrace. One day I hope Konami packages those and sells the ReBirth trilogy on Switch for like $20-$30.
Thank you for shouting out Sin & Punishment. The Wii and N64 games are some of the most slept on games of all time and easily two of the finest action games ever made. Absolutely essential to both libraries
The Wii Classic Edition needs to not only have at least 20 games built in, it should also allow you to play disc games you currently own, since Wii discs are dirt cheap, because lot of people like the soccer moms bought them during the height of Wii era. But nowadays you can easily find used Wii consoles online and thrift shops, since they become dust collectors!
More of these videos please! I would like to see more Nintendo ones, and other brands too. Like Sega, Sony, Atari, etc! Keep up the great, fun, especially entertaining videos!
If they ever did we classic edition, I think they would include a certain number of full we games, and a certain number of we wear titles. This was true that people get to experience some original. We were content and the best we games.
I feel like Antdude's arguments against Animal Crossing City Folk would also apply to Mario Kart Wii. Of course, they would not skip Mario Kart Wii because it is one of the most popular Mario Kart games. But generally, games like Mario Kart and Smash Bros are "the new one or bust" as well
52:02 TRUAMA CENTER MENTIONED (They could do Trauma Team since it’s less graphic and has a ton of modes. Also it doesn’t need past knowledge of the other games. Well, none of the games actually require past knowledge of each other but it’s highly recommended)
Keeping shovel ware titles and not Galaxy 2 is an absolute war crime😂 but great vid nonetheless. Very entertaining to hear about these lesser known titles.
@@ludexia5338 it's been a while since I watched the vid but I believe they opted to put Rabbids and other weird looking games on there versus Galaxy 2. It's just comical to believe that Nintendo would opt for Endless Ocean or a 1st person shooter before a 3D Mario

Every Nintendo Fan: we want Sin and Punishment 2, Metroid Prime 3, Wario Land Shake It and Smash Bros Brawl on the Wii Classic.
Nintendo: you guys gonna get Wii Sport, Wii Play, Wii Sport Resort, Wii Party, Wii Play Motion, Wii Fit, Wii Chess, Wii Music and Mario Party 9.
Nintendo: and throw in imagine party babyz, for good measure!
@@helenhomunculus5044 Nintendo not that’s stupid to put shovelware.
They gonna put casual games but not 3rd party shovelware.
I would prefer nintendos choice there
@@memediatek so you want mario party 9 over smash bros brawl?
Imagine if they did both.

That was so weird...
I just hacked my SNES mini, it's so freakin wicked. I have the old 3ds eshop theme playing on the main menu and added gba and arcade games into the mix. It rocks.
Depending on the specific arcade games, that might dilute the idea of a mini "Nintendo" based console into becoming a custom emulation box with whatever.
@@notsyzagts7967 It definitely does, but if someone wants their hacked SNES Classic to play arcade games that have NOTHING to do with Nintendo, I say let them
Having AntDude and Scott discuss De Blob is the greatest Valentines day gift i could have asked for.
Despite the Wii being 18 years old, I feel like it’s too modern to be made into a classic edition
Radiant Dawn would definitely have to be on it.
Ngl seeing Rainfall Operation getting cut down to just Xenoblade isn't surprising but it is depressing.
Elebits as well as Trauma Center: Second Opinion and Link’s Crossbow Training should be on the Wii Classic. Those games rock!
Link's Crossbow Training is cool, but if one were to pick it as one of the thirty games to represent the Wii, it would cause riots.
Fell to my knees when they removed Go Vacation
What should we do for Valentine's Day? I KNOW, LETS TALK ABOUT THIS WII!
It was Valentine's Day and they talked about the Wii, yet no mention of We Dare? 😥
Klonoa deserves so much more in this cold, dark, messed up world we live in.
Mega Man 9 could fit in Wii Aware titles.
The sound effect you used when putting entries on the list is the same as my work notification sound it was driving me insane
The Last Story is so good. I love that game.
Yeah! The last time I tried emulating, it was on dolphin, tho. It's been a while 😅
im extremely nostalgic for Animal Crossing City Folk but i didn’t play Wild World. i’d spent a ton of time with the Gamecube AC so City Folk felt like a **gigantic** improvement.
Go Vacation was one of my favourite childhood games and I cannot believe the disrespect it was shown (tbf, it can't compete against WSR on a classic console)
scot nerding out with the fellas. seriously though, how do you memorize the publishers???
I have so much nostalgia for Mario Super Sluggers. It is such a goofy baseball game with so many characters and game modes.
19:37 "I'm a wee enjoyer"
I just bought my third Wii this year. I had a library still and some GC games, plus the accessories. But for what I want, it makes sense.
I like having a lot of different ways to play games, I play light gun games on it and guitar hero, there's the racing wheel, also I use the balance board for snowboarding like Alpine Rider in the arcade and its pretty fun, its a very resonsive peripheral often overlooked. And that's my point.
I like the motion control regulars like Zelda and Metroid as well as many lesser likes games because I've learned the finicky motion controls, but the real value is in those Zapper games and in using the balance board and Punch Out like I used to play it with the U Force.
I always liked Nintendo for innovating and fun gameplay, and I know how to get that out of the Wii. Without all that and a deep knowledge of the library I don't know if people would get the potential. It's in all the weirdness.
My Wii is my only dedicated console anymore, and I am happy with it. Stuff's pretty cheap, too.
These two have such amazing chemistry.
Let's go!! De blob is mentioned yet again! 49:29 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Definitely needs to include Ultimate Duck Hunting
Nah, I think Ultimate Duck Hunting should be there instead. It's way better.

I got bored, so i wanted to make my idea of a lineup for a nintendo DS classic.
1. New Super Mario Bros DS
2. Mario Kart DS
3. WarioWare: Touched!
4. Rhythm Heaven
5. Zelda: Phantom Hourglass
6. Zelda: Spirit Tracks
7. Super Mario 64 DS
8. Sonic Rush
9. Animal Crossing: Wild World
10. Mario & Luigi: Bowsers Inside Story
11. Kirby: Canvas Curse
12. Elite Beat Agents
13. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney
14. Picross DS
15. Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia
16. Mario vs Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem!
17. Kirby Superstar Ultra
18. Mario Party DS
19. Pokemon Heart Gold / Pokemon Soul Silver
20. Pokemon Black 2 / Pokemon White 2
21. The World Ends With You
22. Tetris DS
23. Nintendogs
24. Brain Age
25. Professor Layton and the Curious Village
26. Yoshi’s Island DS
27. Dragon Quest IX
28. Cooking Mama
29. Clubhouse Games
30. Scribblenauts
I like the lineup overall but there are some weird choices here. First of all I think you're leaning a bit much into quality over nostalgia value, which I appreciate but goes a bit far. Like DPP and B1W1 are the bestselling Pokémon games on the console, so it's weird that you not only have neither of them but also include the sequels to the latter. SSU at least sold better than Squeak Squad but I'd probably rather include the latter just for it being the more original title, along with replacing Picross DS with the arguably more iconic Picross 3D. Elite Beat Agents might also have to go just for the licensed music, and in its place I'd probably put Metroid Prime Hunters.
Honestly just full on rereleasing the wii would do well I think. It’s gonna people my age wanting to relive their childhoods
Had this on in the background to a wedding i was in, thank you for something to take my mind off 🙏
Rayman raving rabids 1 was such a good choice. I got my wii for Christmas in 2006, we set it up in my grandfather's kitchen and played Wii Sports & Raving Rabids since it was a launch title. It will always be ingrained in my memory of the Wii and i'm glad it even got a mention
i play the second one with my parents and grandparents a lot to this day and i don’t know why
I clicked on this thinking it was 1 minute long and didn't realize until 8 minutes in how long it was
City Folk getting cut hurt my soul
YOU GUYS TALKED ABOUT LITTLE KING'S STORY I'M SO HAPPY 😭
Barrel Blast, put it in
The Boom Blox passion is so nice to see. Best wii series
Man, I would push for 10 WiiWare games. The fact that none of the ReBirth trilogy have a way to legally purchase them right now when Castlevania Adventure ReBirth is one of the best 2D Castlevania games of all time is a disgrace. One day I hope Konami packages those and sells the ReBirth trilogy on Switch for like $20-$30.
Final video i watch at work today.
Hey back to work :3
Cooking Mama is an essential Wii experience
Cooking mama on the DS will always be my favorite. It felt like I was really pouring water into a ramen cup!!!
babysitting mama! 👶
City folk 100% needs to be on the wii classic
Thank you for shouting out Sin & Punishment. The Wii and N64 games are some of the most slept on games of all time and easily two of the finest action games ever made. Absolutely essential to both libraries
I could listen to these two all day
Consider a wii classic edition with a separate gamecube expansion you can get plugging in a little memory card and gamecube controllers in the slots
Yes! Getting podcast vibes. Amazing 🎉
AntDude is crazy actually for that City Folk comment
Ranking all the Zelda games with pbg would be sick
I’m not sure if Scott has finished enough Zelda games to do that haha
He’s kinda overrated
The Wii Classic Edition needs to not only have at least 20 games built in, it should also allow you to play disc games you currently own, since Wii discs are dirt cheap, because lot of people like the soccer moms bought them during the height of Wii era. But nowadays you can easily find used Wii consoles online and thrift shops, since they become dust collectors!
More of these videos please! I would like to see more Nintendo ones, and other brands too. Like Sega, Sony, Atari, etc! Keep up the great, fun, especially entertaining videos!
1:23:37 change donkey kong to super Metroid and Zelda to link to the past
I never thought I'd see the day when I'd see the name "iRacing" on a Scott video (iRacing bought Monster Games, 1:03:08)
If they ever did we classic edition, I think they would include a certain number of full we games, and a certain number of we wear titles. This was true that people get to experience some original. We were content and the best we games.
THE COLLAB OF THE CENTURY
Scott literally just went through frequenczy old videos I still remember watching all his reviews
I haven’t watched the full video yet but I hope they talk about channels to add like check mii out, everybody votes, or the Nintendo channel
I feel like Antdude's arguments against Animal Crossing City Folk would also apply to Mario Kart Wii. Of course, they would not skip Mario Kart Wii because it is one of the most popular Mario Kart games. But generally, games like Mario Kart and Smash Bros are "the new one or bust" as well
Can you guys do a gamecube one also?
Sam and scott were popping with the wii classic editing ngl
52:02 TRUAMA CENTER MENTIONED
(They could do Trauma Team since it’s less graphic and has a ton of modes. Also it doesn’t need past knowledge of the other games. Well, none of the games actually require past knowledge of each other but it’s highly recommended)
Keeping shovel ware titles and not Galaxy 2 is an absolute war crime😂 but great vid nonetheless. Very entertaining to hear about these lesser known titles.
What would you consider to be shovelware on this list?
@@ludexia5338 it's been a while since I watched the vid but I believe they opted to put Rabbids and other weird looking games on there versus Galaxy 2. It's just comical to believe that Nintendo would opt for Endless Ocean or a 1st person shooter before a 3D Mario
24:46 My head is spinning hearing a Xenoblade song on Scott's channel, 😵💫 I'm so happy, but I didnt think that was something that would ever happen!
