Is the Virtual Console Dead in North America?

I've never bought a game using the Wii's virtual console, but I'm sure it's great.

The Xbox 360 one I have much experience with, and it's very much alive. Has some amazing original games.

oh wow, some obscure sega titles, a couple of Commodore 64 games and tecmo bowl. And that's all we get for months while japan gets 5-6 games a week and even europe will outpace North America soon.

Hey, maybe to tide us over they'll start supporting the ZX Spectrum and Atari 2600 so that we can get one game a week with for things like the crappy version of Pac-Man, ET, and the A Team at $5 a pop.
