Free updates may be planned for VC games.

Gaming website ,The Wiire, have unearthed some information regarding the Virtual Console games available on the Wii Shop Channel.

According to the Q & A section of Wii Shop Channel on the Wii console, software developers can update already released Virtual Console games free of charge.

The "Update" button indicates there are enhancements for the game. If you have already downloaded the game, you may select "Update" to download the enhancements free of charge. Please note, downloading the update may impact the saved game data.

So, the potential is definitely there. Whilst reading this, the first thing that came into our heads, and probably yours too, was the option of maybe adding online multiplayer for Virtual Console titles.

Let's just hope that this feature gets used.
