From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The list of Virtual Console games for Wii U in North America names current and upcoming releases of vintage games. Emulated by the Wii U Virtual Console , these releases take advantage of the console's unique features, such as Off TV Play with the Wii U GamePad and posting to Miiverse . Some of these games may already be available on the Wii Virtual Console , which can also be played through Wii U's Wii Mode, but these legacy versions lack some features of the Wii U Virtual Console. While Wii Virtual Console titles cannot be played using the Wii U GamePad's controls, a September 2013 system update enabled the use of the GamePad's screen as a display. While some Wii games are also available for download from the Wii U eShop, these are not designated as Virtual Console releases and lack Virtual Console features.
The list is sorted by system and in the order in which they were added in Nintendo eShop for Wii U. To sort by other columns, click the corresponding icon in the header row.
