Okay, Nintendo really needs to get some crossplay poo poo going. Like, loving hurry up, guys. I'd buy a Wii U if it meant I could chill and play 3DS/DS games on TV and vice versa.

Though with games like Sonic Rush that would be absolutely terrible. So maybe they'll have like options for how the screens are oriented.

Doug Dinsdale posted:According to Iwata, they've figured out how to clear the technical hurdles for doing DS games on WiiU so they'll be adding DS titles sequentially. Have they figured out the hurdles to me playing SNES games on my 3DS yet? At this rate there will be a homebrew emulator out before they support it officially.

Tribladeofchaos posted:The TV being the top screen and the gamepad being the touchscreen Or both crammed onto the Gamepad, as some predict. A good implementation will give you options for screen placement as well as providing the extra little bells and whistles that we've come to expect from decent emulators. But we don't know anything yet, so I'm reserving judgment.

DS Virtual Console for Wii U is neat and all but they're not even up to parity with what systems were offered on the Wii yet, nor started releasing games from the previous "new" Virtual Console they announced.

You've got to be loving kidding holy poo poo Yeah they sure love to try and toss that in people's faces, like with the Donkey Kong NES games its not nearly worth the $5 asking price and if you have an Ambassador 3DS you already have a far superior version in Yoshi's Island. I'm betting they're going to do SMB3 on both 3DS and Wii U at the same time so that's when that'll happen.

bushisms.txt posted:Are any of the final fights worth it, or should I stick with Double Dragon and Mystara? I loving love Final Fight. If you get one off the VC get 2 or 3. 1 while nostalgic as gently caress and the original is also notoriously quarter muncher level difficult and is missing Guy in character selection and the Relento fight the arcade version had. Not that that matters because no one should ever pick anyone except MAYOR OF EARF: Mike Haggar.

bushisms.txt posted:Is there a universally declared "best" ninja gaiden? If you're strictly talking about the NES games then you can't go wrong with any of 'em. The third game is definitely the weakest due to Tecmo loving with the difficulty in really stupid ways for the international version, but they're all cool.

We are angry because we are getting ds games on the wiiu? Man slow trickle aside I can't wait for ds castlevanias, Metroids, and Advance Wars. Now if they could get the prices decent and schedule out of the 90s this would be sweet.

I don't think anyone's angry, it's just odd to put them on the WiiU instead of offering them on the 3DS. I know we can play DS games on the 3DS anyway, but some games are rare/hard to find, and in general having access to a digital DS library would be cool. At the same time, as people have mentioned in the WiiU thread, they announced before the console launched that there would be N64 and GBA games available, but there's no sign of either. It's a little frustrating having them announce stuff, then not really follow through.

PAL update (week of January 30):quote:WII U RETAIL DOWNLOADS NA update (week of January 30): quote:WII U RETAIL DOWNLOADS No Ninja Gaiden this week... the NOA website jumped the gun, it seems. Whatever, go play Zelda. All the games in the Wii U indie promotion are worth checking out; hopefully it pays off for 'em. The Wii Fit U almost-free promotion ends in a day or so, for those who need a reminder. PaletteSwappedNinja fucked around with this message at 15:39 on Jan 30, 2014 |

Oh yeah, I probably don't need to mention it, but, PAL 3DS dudes: be sure to register/link a NNID to your 3DS before the end of the month - if you do, you'll get a free download code for Super Mario Bros. Deluxe in a few weeks.

Don't know if it was posted a couple weeks ago or what, but there's a "sale" on some WB games (but there's no sale indicator in the shop, so it might be a price drop): Arkham Origins - $39.99 Scribblenauts Unmasked - $39.99 Scribblenauts Unlimited - $19.99 Injustice - $39.99 Lego Batman 2 -$19.99 Plus some Hot Wheels game that looks like garbage.

You can play it single player where you control all 4 links in a formation. It's not as fun as the multiplayer but it's basically impossible to play it with other people nowadays.

Its a DSi ware version of the four swords game that was in the Lttp Port on GBA. The one you're thinking of is Four Swords Adventures.
