Many developers are musing on the idea of delivering original content on the Virtual Console, such as Capcom. System 3’s Mark Cale vaguely hinted direct digital-download content on the system, but not for the VC.

“Impossible Mission would be one of the first titles we’re going to be launching on Wii, that will be available from retailers, and to download as well, and that’s where we’re going to be exploring what Nintendo can actually do in terms of downloadable content, and see if it can match Xbox Live.”

And this is his input on a VC possibility:

“I wouldn’t say Virtual Console, because they’re not actually calling it the Virtual Console, but in the next few months there will be various announcements I’m sure made by Nintendo that will offer users a system that will be similar to that of what Microsoft is offering at present, which is the ability to download content.”

So how would this downloadable content see through? Possibly a new Wii channel.
