The Virtual Console is one of many special features of the Wii. The Virtual Console allows gamers to download games that have been uploaded by their respective companies. Nintendo is the main backer of the feature, promising to fill it with their immense backlog of games from the NES, SNES, and Nintendo 64. Nintendo will not be uploading GameCube games to the Virtual Console as the Wii is backwards-compatible with the system. Hudson and Sega are also backing the Virtual Console with Sega Genisis and TurboGraphx-16 games. Virtual Console games are bought with Wii Points.
