NG: I noticed on backwards compatibility at the press conference that the GameCube was missing. Why is this?
AM: You know it’s interesting that you bring up backwards compatibility and Nintendo’s history usually goes back one system. The Wii was compatible with GameCube and Wii U will be compatible with Wii and that’s pretty traditional in launches from Nintendo.
NG: So the Wii U will not support the discs or accessories?
AM: Actually the GameCube discs will not be compatible with Wii U, but a number of the games that were playable on GameCube can be downloaded from WiiWare.

All I want is Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes. I'd trade in my Wii if I could have that game downloaded on my Wii U on day one.
