Well since Super CD games are already on the VC, I don't see why normal CD-ROM2 games wouldn't :) .

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

I am also hopeful for plain old CDs/ACDs.

But my Wii is running out of memory already.  :cry:

What's the deal there anyway? Is there no external memory options for the Wii?  :-k

There are none, other than using a memory card for backup purposes (you can't play games directly from the card).

Isn't Wonderboy 3/Monster Lair already available on the Turbo VC? If so, that's a "standard" CD-ROM^2.

another problem with the SD card: it doesn't save your state when copied. I don't know if that extends to RPG saves or not.
