Unfortunately, that process of upgrading is stupid, as it would easily allow possible hacks to be introduced with people having already hacked into the Wii mode. My experience with transferring games over from my Wii to Wii mode of Wii U proves the opposite. I had done some things on my Wii that ended up wiping all information of a particular WiiWare game that I legitimately bought, rendering me unable to redownload it to my Wii. The game was shown in my purchase history on their servers, but the record on my Wii was not there, so it couldn't match it. However, when I used the transfer utility to move my games from my Wii to WiiWare, it transferred over the record of that WiiWare purchase to the Wii mode, and I was able to download it with no problems. tl;dr My Wii had no record of a game after I did something stupid, but the transfer utility checked only the purchase record on their servers to make the Wii mode transferable. --- http://lazerlight.x10.mx/ - Lazer Light Studios - Home of the MM2 PTC project | |

Wii -> Wii U save file transfer won't work since the Wii stuff goes into Wii Mode, and, technically, Wii Mode and Wii U Mode two separate consoles. | |

AhnoldDood posted... There was a PS1 Chrono Trigger? Yeah it was part of FF Chronicles Packaged with FFIV. It had really slow load times and the Anime Cut scenes, which are in the definitive DS version. But the thing is this method shows how incompetent Nintendo is with VC, this should have been merged from the get go, not two separate modes. The 3DS doesn't even do that. --- "I think there will be a price drop at the latest by E3. I'd even bet my account on it." Icecreamdunwich on the Wii U | |
Just beat the games before the new VC comes out. I fix everything. --- whythefat "DDR, I notice your karma is 567. That 5+6+7= 18. 18 plus your IQ is 19. There were 19 hijackers on 911. You are a terrorist." | |

VC doesn't work that way - they have different code that doesn't try to "replicate" the console, but instead makes the game itself work directly with the new hardware. The bonus, at least for N64 games, is that the game will render in whatever the output resolution of the console is. Since the textures of most N64 games were limited by the hardware, the textures, too, would improve. Now, I will admit that it likely wouldn't look exactly like OoT3D, it would look far better than the Wii version does with Nintendo doing nothing more than doing their normal VC porting. This is backed up by the fact that N64 VC almost always look better than the original games on the N64. --- Gaming is like a pair of boobs - Sony and Microsoft fight over whos boobs look more realistic, while Nintendo is about having fun with them - Walkiethrougie |
