Another Super Mario 64 remake in the making?

What's the point of putting revamped versions on the eShop when you can get the originals on the VC? (If they actually COME OUT, that is). Like, they'd give you the option for both on the same hardware. Where's the logic in that?
 
I still have 1000 Nintendo Points stored in my Wii with the hopes of Mario Party 3 getting released, but that didn't happen and most likely never will, at least not on the Wii. I don't know even what to spend them on; I already have all the games I like/want.

I'm pretty sure the point behind having two versions of the same game on the same hardware is so that those who don't want to spend as much money on a game can buy an older version for a cheaper price, N64 games originally had a $10-15 price point, these rumored upgrades are about $30 a pop. I guess it could also be for people who would rather play the original version of the game for collection or nostalgia purposes, and maybe the discount thing for those who already own the game on the Wii Shop would apply as it has already with the NES and SNES games.
 
I like the idea, but I really don't want to play through SM64 again. There were some stars in that game that I don't really want to revisit. Now Super Mario sunshine on the other hand had awesome environments, great graphics and cool tropical island music. Now take all that and add HD and some minor tweaks like Wind Waker HD, then you got something I'd drop my money on no questions asked.

have you never heard of the virtual console

game's exactly or near-exactly the same as on the original console, just in an adapted format. no need for fancy graphical updates or other useless "remake" gimmicks.

use your noggin
 
Wait a second there. I bought Paper Mario for the Virtual Console, but I'd give anything to have it all over again with updated graphics.
