ONM and NGAMER were offering them as a subscription gift claiming they work with Wii.

Apparently, all GameCube controllers work - and I've heard using the bongos for some of the Virtual Console games is quite entertaining (though I imagine gets a bit rubbish after a while...)

Anyone know if the Wavebird works with Wii? I'd imagine it does, but just checking.

Don't fancy sitting close to my TV with a cable, tis all.

Yep - So when they were showing off the Virtual Console playing Sonic the Hedgehog in E3...I was thinking, "I can already do that on my GameCube...and as the Wii plays GameCube games, then why is that so amazing?"

In my case they can all be played on PS2, but yeah Sonic R is terrible. Did you play it with the sound on mute pb? The bg music makes me want to vomit blood.

True. And Sonic R as well. Am I the only person who loved that game?

Remember, Sonic the Hedgehog, Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine and Sonic CD can all be played on the Wii without the Virtual Console...

I quite enjoyed Road Avenger on CD, never actually played any 32x games, or Sonic CD for that matter :O

The only good game on Mega CD was Sonic CD, and it's debatable whether that was actually good or not. Now the 32x might be an option, but I honestly can't remember anything decent on that either- Knuckles Chaotix was a terrible disappointment.
I'd love to see some Saturn games on the VC but honestly at 700mb(max) a game, it doesn't really look likely...
