Well, at least the WiiU has a great VC, while the 3DS VC... isn't getting anywhere and is terrible (there's a barely a few good games to play), and worse, they don't exploit the 3DS' hardware fully, otherwise, we would have a SNES VC and a GBA VC (come on, stop with the lame excuse, Nintendo, we all know that you can make a GBA emulator run at 60fps on a 3DS while letting people access the 3DS' regular features!).
So, yes, they can upgrade the WiiU VC, I'm not against it, but the 3DS VC don't have many good games.

Mine would be the Fire Emblem games on GC and Wii because they're so hard to track down for cheap.
At least Tales of Symphonia is available on PSN, so that's one avenue to go down.
Wii U:
- Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door (GCN)
- Tales of Symphonia (GCN)
- F-Zero GX (GCN)
- Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour (GCN)
- Mario Kart: Double Dash (GCN)
3DS:Fudge, after how much I've suggested dozens of ideas elsewhere, I can't think of any more.
- All of the GBA Games on the Wii U / Ambassador Program
- Any GBA Fire Emblem game (including FE6) not counted by the above
At least Tales of Symphonia is available on PSN, so that's one avenue to go down.
Super Mario 64 is available through the Wii Shop Channel, so you could just jump into Wii mode on Wii U and download it there.Fire emblem games pls. Best series ever. A must have! Great story lines. Best their was best their is and best their will be
Mario 64 never played it.
Luigis mansion because I have never played it before

Many websites have essentially proven that GBA games on 3DS wouldn't work well as they play differently than other VC games. Plus the ambassador games run horribly compared to DSiWare.
And SNES games on 3DS? I'd rather have more portable systems like Neo Geo Pocket Color and Wonderswan first, as well as More GB and GBC games. NES games are practically taking over the 3DS VC and because of that we barely get any GB or GBC games despite there being so many games to release. I wouldn't mind playing Kirby's avalanche on the go, but they should at least work on the portable VC systems first... I'm sick of all of the console games on 3DS. It was fine when they first launched but now there are more of them than GB and GBC games it seems. I don't mind GBA games on Wii U VC but I would indeed feel the same way if they began to take over the store or if they added GBC games.

Yes, but I doubt they'll add a WonderSwan or a NeoGeo Pocket Color VC. Or it'll be Japan-only,
As for the SNES, it's not an obligation, it's just an idea, I placed the system comparison to show that they don't really use the 3DS' hardware. In a fact, the 3DS (with a bit of work,
Back to the GBA problem, I think that it's just a bad implementation, or there's something not correct with the GBA Emulator, because, take a look at all those meanies who uses GBA Emulators on their PSP. It runs perfectly fine, without much trouble, even though the PSP is nothing more than a single-core 333MHz CPU! So, why wouldn't the 3DS, who is more powerful, and is dual-core, couldn't run them better than a previous-gen console ?
And I agree with you, the GB(C) VC don't have much quality games, and I suggest them
So, aside from the ideas, I think there are ways to make a full GBA Emulator/VC on the 3DS. She has a lot of potential, yet it isn't exploited. But on that point, I agree with you: we need a better VC, and optionally, more portable platforms.

I would love getting Hyrule warriors when it comes out, but there's only one teensy tiny problem... I don't own a Wii U and it doesn't look like I really ever will actually, I'm content with my 3DS ( I would love if Nintendo could've brought Hyrule warriors to the 3DS, but that's asking too much of them isn't it?)

I think you've misinterpreted their words. The GBA games run like GBA mode in the DS, and it works fine; however, because of their architecture they can't access the hardware pause features of the 3DS like the Home menu, Streetpass, and Miiverse because that functionality didn't exist on the DS.
