Rare doesn’t know why Donkey Kong 64 isn’t out on the Wii VC yet

Almost all of Rare’s Donkey Kong console efforts have been released on the Virtual Console. However, even though we’re nearly three years into the Wii’s lifecycle, we still haven’t seen Donkey Kong 64. In their most recent Scribes mailbag update, Rare said that they aren’t sure why the game hasn’t appeared yet and also discussed whether Jetpac would show up in the VC edition.

“I have no idea why DK64 hasn’t shown up yet, and whether Jetpac would still be in there or they’d replace it with Mario’s Cement Factory (which ate about three years of my life as a child) or something. Or maybe a single-screen 2D shooty version of Jet Race would be more appropriate. Who knows? Not us, obviously, or we wouldn’t be sitting here pitching clueless alternatives.”
