The Wii U is a ton more powerful so it's probably easier to get all the functions they'd want with a VC GBA game on a Wii U.

I know, it's still kinda crummy though. I was hoping they'd get it sorted out at some point and get the Advance Wars GBA games released.


EDIT: Well I guess I should get around to trying Xenoblade, cause this looks fun.

This is baffling, since as I recall that's actually a worse version than the SNES one, since the field of view is smaller.

The only thing I recall being REALLY different was the Touch Fuzzy: Get Dizzy stage, the effect was done differently. And I actually preferred it to the SNES version. That's the only change I remember though. It was great otherwise.
