Sora96 17,256 Posted March 25, 2014 The first Game Boy Advance title is hitting the Wii U Virtual Console in Europe next week. The Wii U UK Facebook page announced that the turn-based strategy classic Advance Wars will hit the Virtual Console April 3. The highly-rated GBA title is the only one announced for the Virtual Console so far. Wii U's Virtual Console currently offers dozens of classic NES and SNES titles. Nintendo president Satoru Iwata announced in January that the console will soon get Nintendo DS games that will be playable on the Wii U Gamepad. Thanks to IGN. And like everyone else I'm saying they should put GBA games on the 3DS Virtual Console too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hero of Winds 2,576 Posted March 25, 2014 I'm placing bets they'll be in North America in two weeks. 1 Ceriraye reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Setrex 1,031 Posted March 26, 2014 The European list has since been updated with release dates and more. I can't wait to pick up Golden Sun and Advance Wars. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just hope Minish Cap gets a release in April, or my money might just disappear with Kirby. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's a good thing that I already have Minish Cap on my 3DS since I'm one of the embassadors. But I do hope that they release that too for the Wii U VC for other people to play.

Japan is getting Minish Cap on April 30th, so maybe we might see it in early May. Total guess though. I'm sure they will release it and honestly I was surprised it wasn't confirmed for an April release in America or Europe.

I'm getting a good feeling about this year's Virtual Console lineup. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
