Makes me wonder, with Worms coming for XBLA, could the Virtual Console do PC games? Or would the Wii require a software upgrade for that, so it can emulate PC?

Well, it would have to be ported to the virtual console. I sincerely doubt the Wii has the horsepower to render a PC game through a VM. I think Worms for XBLA is a port as well, they're just releasing the software via XBLA instead of a disk because the game just isn't very big (download size) and it helps XBLA compete more directly with the Virtual Console.
