Good idea, port C to the VMU ^.^ I'll have to do that sometime ;)

A religiously accurate port of C would be something truly wonderful (if not
impossible), but since you aren't going to do that I don't think it's worth
it. The language we already have isn't really that difficult to work with,
and it's also sort of fun.

I'd say that you should probably work with option 1, at least at first.

Making the VMU easy to program even for the newest of the newbies is a very
good thing. It could very well attract more people and get the people who
are already here more interested in churning out stuff.

You wouldn't need to do option 2 if you did option 1, so many people would
be on the scene that someone else would do it for ya ^^
