They can't not have a Castlevania and the options are IV or Dracula X so the choice is very obvious.

Mystical Ninja and Fire Emblem are both great, but not worth giving up Earthbound, Punch Out, Kirby and Castlevania.

We actually get the better games for once :911:

The better version is Ultra Street Fighter II: The Final Challengers featuring the all-new motion-controlled Way of the Hadou minigame and it's exclusive to Nintendo Switch.

I guess we have confirmation. The controller port flips down and hides the actual controller ports.

I would gladly trade four of the English games for Tetris Attack. Hands down.

They get Tetris Attack because their version was never called Tetris Attack, so Nintendo can re-release it whenever they want without having to pay a cut to The Tetris Company.

If you look at it, the controller ports section of the SNES does look like its a separate flap and can fold down, yeah.

Could just be separate components for assembly though? :shrug:

Nintendo and every other publisher should be putting out all their games everywhere, even if I intend to sidestep everything they put out with ROMs and homebrew.

I have like 2 or 3 of them and still regret not buying, like, everything that wasn't nailed down in the various stores I had easy access to in Japan. If I had done my teaching there just a few years later I'd probably be retired now. :argh:

Eh, I got Panel de Pon a few months ago for $3 including shipping from Japan. If you want a cart, it's really easy to get.

Goemon is a really good pick to switch out for the SFC mini given the popularity of the series (also it's a great game). Fire Emblem, OTOH, not so much given it's one of the weaker games in the series. I don't even know that soccer game or if it was a big game in Japan. Also, Hyper is the best Street Fighter on the SFC; Super gets kind of clunky on the platform and Alpha has problems of its own.

What loving world am I living in where a GBA Micro is $100+??? Those things were Neo Geo Pocket levels of throwaway. They were on every shelf and nobody wanted one. The Famicom edition I understand, but even the standard silver?


Would unironically buy even though my SNES never yellowed.

And I managed to buy an AGS-101 for $60 so I really can't complain too much.

absolutely anything posted:

the only game i'd knock off the list in favor of something else is castlevania 4. also it should be dkc2 instead of dkc but whatever. rest of the list is basically straight bangers

Super Castlevania IV is boring and I'd swap it for Axelay or Demon's Crest or Goemon or even Brawl Bros. And that's just sticking to what's on the Wii U Virtual Console.

What exactly is accuracy of GC backups on a modded Wii through Nintendont? I chose original hardware + everdrives to play games while feeling more accurate than emulating, but am sorta confused about the GC/Wii situation.

A Wii has actual GameCube internals along side the Wii's. Backups will work like they were discs on actual hardware. No emulation. Think of it like the Game Boy Advance's ability to play Game Boy games.

Edit: Should mention that later revisions of the Wii (including the Wii Mini) removed GameCube backwards compatibility. So do some research before buying one if you haven't yet. But it's pretty hard to find one without it since so many of them were sold. Basically anything with the GameCube ports on the Wii is OK.

Awesome! I was hoping it was a PS2/1 situation but wanted to be sure.

Edit: I have an old softmodded Wii from like 2009, so no problems. Just need to update or redo everything.
