Do upgraded games have the ability to create save states? I'd pay the fee to have a shot at actually beating half the games I bought on the Wii virtual console.

IIRC, they did say that save states were one of the perks to the Wii U version of Virtual Console games.

Save states? No. Save state? Yes. Only one at a time per game.

On a slightly different subject, holy crap, am I the only one who downloaded Super Mario World and thinks it looks better on my HDTV than in my 15 year old dreams?   Seriously, it looks FANTASTIC.   Much, much better than it did on the same TV from my Wii.   I'm not the only one noticing this, am I?   I was kind of expecting this to look accurate by stretchy, like on my Wii.  I am blown away by this.

The image quality seriously is improved. Played Punch Out!! on Wii VC, then Wii U. The difference is there. I'd also note, that the single save state is, I believe, one per user. I haven't double checked, but my kids play the hell out of Kirby's Adventure, and my save state is intact on my profile.

Edit: You do get a save state for each user; it also seems that having a present save state dramatically effects the time it takes the console to boot up the game.

Dear Nintendo:

Customized Control Schemes for VC games.  Please.

Thank you.

Are they shared across all games of that system? I could see them having a custom default for a system and then custom for each game (because it would be really annoying to have to edit every single game). The button assignment interface is super-clunky already, which doesn't make any sense given that the touch screen should make it super easy and intuitive.

Oof, only one? I feel like I'm going to need five to make it through Star Tropics or Blaster Master.
