I know that a lot of "wish-list" games people are wishing for will never happen because they were originally on other consoles... However I believe it may be merited to make a list of all the games on the wish-list that were primarily on consoles, but also ported to PC (and thus suitable for GOG.com)
The two main examples I can think of are
Grandia 2 (orignally on dreamcast... ported to PC as a 'classics' game)
and
Final Fantasy 8 (Orignally on PS, ported to PC with manual cd and improved functionality.)
both of which were released on PC and could be put together into an installer (if there is no DRM, all you need is the data installed on the HDD rather then disk swapping)
I know it also takes deals and all this to get the games. However it must be annoying for people to sit there watching console games in the wish-list that will never come.
