There most certainly is GBA stuff on the Wii U, and it's absolutely my favorite part of the Wii U VC.

I wish they would put DS or GBA games on the 3DS.

Having them only available on the WiiU even though they've already shown that they have working GBA emulation on the 3DS is still bloody madness though.

It was trash, but one would hope/assume that if they could get a barely passable GBA emulator running on the regular 3DS then they could probably get a more fully featured one on the New 3DS with its greater processing power. It'd certainly be a way of adding value to the system if Nintendo has no intention of making any more exclusives for it.

There's like a ton of games still coming out on the 3DS. It's where the majority of Nintendo exclusives go.

The homebrew GBA emulation on n3DS is pretty good now and is also improving fairly rapidly. If the hobbyists can do it so can Nintendo.

Hobbyists can make a GBA emulator for the n3DS sure, but Nintendo probably isn't gonna consider it unless they're sure they can make a profit off it. I can't imagine that the n3DS's install base is large enough to warrant the effort, nor do I think that the ability to get GBA VC would be a strong enough selling point to get people to upgrade from an older 3DS model for the n3DS. Edit: ^ Also that, there's a good chance that the emulators aren't as good as they should be to sell to the public.

I'm not saying it's there yet but it's amazing how much improvement there have been in just a few months. The 3ds homebrew scene is still not even a year old so it isn't really surprising the emulation isn't that great yet. There are also a few games running near perfectly even now. Give it like 6 - 12 months and it's probably going to be much better. Andrast fucked around with this message at 21:27 on Oct 27, 2015 |

If you had read what I said, I said "more then half of the single player content" was locked behind the Amiibos. Which is true, as there are what, maybe 25 to 30 levels of Single player content, and each Amiibo unlocks an additional 20 stages, plus weapon reskins, outfits, and bonus mini-game, that's a huge chunk of content locked behind $30+ of what is basically DLC. All of that added up is actually more Single Player content, even if it is just reskins of the old content, then the game comes with. raditts posted:Obviously I'm not talking about free-to-play games, genius. Fatal Frame, Rusty's, Ironfall, and Stretchmo(?) are not "Free-to-play." You may get a Demo that's free, but you are paying for those games. And that list was exactly what you asked for. quote:Have there been any Nintendo games with DLC that weren't complete games on their own? I can't think of any that fall into your latter category off the top of my head but I guess maybe some exist?

That's like saying over half of Mega Man 9 or Sonic 06 is locked behind DLC because you have to buy Proto Man or the harder difficulty modes.

But if you insist that it's a pretty relevant chunk of content to be locked behind figurines, and you think it's a scumbag maneuver to do so - well, that's ok. I'm just not that convinced. Also the plural for amiibo is amiibo. Without the capital A.

I see Anora's point. I remember when games included challenges as part of the full package, rather than behind figurines marketed at children and those select weird friends everyone has, you know the ones. I also don't see his point because idk why you would expect anything else from Ninty, whose recent love of micro-transactions feels (to me) like a desperate attempt to breathe life into an increasingly "meh" brand name that just can't compete in such an aggressive market. I think the holiday line up is just awful. Though I am curious to see what this NX is all about. Personally, I hope it's a smartwatch that can only play Pokemon Go and Steel Diver, as well as a few Choice Nintendo Apps (calendars, etc).

It's a large chunk of something to do, and the different weapon challenges and the timed/limited ink challenges are different then the standard one, maybe not in visuals, but they do require you to approach the level differently. I also never said it was scummy, DLC is DLC, it is here and we must accept it. Either way, you're spending $60 to get 30 single player levels and a tiny amount of multiplayer. Amiibos expand the single player, while the free DLCs are beefing up the multiplayer. It's still an example of getting a slimmed down game where the majority of content is behind DLC, even if it's free. homeless snail posted:Did you know, Animal Crossing Happy Home Designer is literally 1/412th of a game if you don't buy all the amiibos and cards?? Follow the money. You're still getting way to angry about video games.  Also, you can access the content in HHD, but having the card just lets you summon them, I think. I haven't played it. ChaosArgate posted:That's like saying over half of Mega Man 9 or Sonic 06 is locked behind DLC because you have to buy Proto Man or the harder difficulty modes. Mega Man 9 was a full Mega Man game, the Proto Man and higher difficulties were just add-on content, but that was a prescident set by previous titles in the series. I was unaware Sonic 06 had DLC, and even if all but the first 2 seconds of the game was behind paid DLC, that would not be the worst that game has to offer.

Splatoon doesn't have 4 multiplayer levels and never had only 4 multilayer levels. I'm sure you'll say I'm getting mad about video games to deflect that but I don't care because you're literally crazy

Yoshi's Woolly World has kind of a weird speed to it in general, it doesn't feel nearly as fast as the original but it's still pretty fun. It's a shame there's some really, really terribly designed levels in it but it's still the closest to a proper yoshi sequel we've ever really had.

That and the one I mentioned are actually kinda similar in that they have an absurd amount of obnoxious poo poo between each checkpoint and if you screw up you have to do it all over again. Frame boo level also has a final yarn that is missable if you don't make a perfect jump, gently caress that level.

I'm not entirely convinced checkpoints are a good thing because it seems like it will just further encourage lovely long levels.
