News hit last week that Nintendo is expanding its Virtual Console offerings with the Commodore 64 lineup:
"Available for 500 Wii Points (GBP 3.50/ EUR 5) a pop, all-time C64 favourites including Uridium and International Karate have been confirmed so far, with "regular updates" bolstering the line-up thereafter. Currently, the platform has only been confirmed for Europe - the legion of US C64 fans must wait patiently for now. Originally released way back in 1982, the Commodore 64 went on to become the best-selling home computer of all-time, with 22 million units sold worldwide. Hugely popular across Europe and the United States, the C64 built up an incredible line-up of software, with well over 4,000 titles produced during its production lifetime (1982-1994)." The Wii is becoming the console to beat when it comes to online offerings. Now if we could just push past the "casual gaming" aspect of the console and bring it up to par with the game offerings of the 360 and PS3, it would be the clear cut winner.
