Artix posted:Because as you might be aware, Nintendo doesn't own this "Sonic the Hedgehog" property. If Sega wants to let them sit there in Japan for no good reason, they're perfectly within their rights to do so, no matter how little sense it makes. Just because it's a third party game, doesn't mean Nintendo can't hype it up if they wanted to and the third party is interested. It's not as if Sega and Nintendo haven't collaborated before. I'm merely curious why Nintendo isn't making a bigger deal, either here or in Japan, about games like this being released on their system. Then again, it is Nintendo. \/\/\/ Well that explains it.

Spacebump posted:I really wish we could get an Earthbound release VC date. On one hand, I keep getting paranoid that they are going to pretend they never said anything. On the other, there was the rumoured physical release someone found on amazon.co.uk, so I'd be grateful for just a mention of it either way on the Direct.

Saoshyant posted:Are you mistaking this with Super Luigi U, which is getting a standalone version alongside the download-only DLC? A VC game shouldn't be getting a physical release, especially one as niche as Earthbound. Don't get me wrong, I'm pretty sure they aren't doing one, but I wouldn't be unhappy if they did. http://wiiudaily.com/2013/05/earthbound-listed-on-amazon-uk-could-see-physical-release/ And I agree, the series is kinda niche, but Nintendo has been doing good with releases like that lately (Kirby comes to mind, which as popular as Kirby is, I'm sure if they did the same thing for Earthbound, it'd sell as many copies as the Kirby collection probably did.) So I think it's just a mistake listing, and we're likely just going to get the VC release, which is completely fine by me.

Louisgod posted:So hold up, how are you supposed to get the discount for buying both packs if they're being released 7 months apart? I get that you can save $2 if you buy both at once, but are they really expecting you to wait 7 months for that or does pre-ordering them get you that discount up front? I believe you pay the 11.99 now, and then receive both DLC packs when they are released.

I keep thinking how cool it would be for Nintendo to put out the Super Star Wars games on Wii U for May the 4th be with you since Steam, PSN, and GoG are all doing Star Wars related sales. They won't do it though, that'd make too much sense.

Sakurazuka posted:That poo poo all belongs to Disney now, they quite happily let GOG have a bunch of PC Star Wars games but the SNES ones seem like a long shot. Plus they all sucked apart from the first one maybe. I'm pretty sure Disney is/would be fine with those games getting re-released on the Wii U VC service, since you can still buy them on the regular Wii VC storefront. Also, it's basically free money for them since Nintendo pretty much handles all the re-coding for the VC service. Disney is far far less retarded about releasing old games on digital distribution services than Lucasarts was. Yes, I know how weird that sentence sounds considering it's about the company that introduced the "Disney vault". Help Im Alive posted:The only Star Wars related thing I've ever played is Rogue Squadron 2 which came with my Gamecube and I would buy it on Virtual Console even though I don't really like Star Wars Factor 5 had a remaster/rerelease of the Rogue Squadron games for the Wii ready to go a few years back but Lucasarts being Lucasarts, stalled and let it die. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-X8C_8nJQ4 My secret wish is Nintendo convinced Disney to let them pick it back up again and we'll hear something at E3 about it. Yes, I know EA has the rights to new Star Wars games, but I'd imagine Disney left some legal wiggle room in that contact so they could release older/unreleased stuff if they wanted too through alternative channels.

Lucasarts being Lucasarts and stalling on stuff because the company's leadership and George Lucas meddled in everything, including really mundane poo poo. Seriously, that company was so riddled with mismanagement, Disney buying it was the best possible thing that could have happened to it.
