Has anyone assumed that once Japan gets their systems in, NOA would get around to putting up most of the games that they're getting as well (Super Mario World, Link to the Past, Donkey Kong Country, etc.)
I mean, they probably get more because they're getting the games that'll already be released HERE.

Link to the Past isn't on them...
I just think Nintendo should have a steady influx of their big names. They should have Super Mario Bros at launch and Super Mario Bros. 2 a few weeks later. They should have LoZ at launch at Link to the Past a month later. It makes sense to space out the super huge titles like that.
It seems a logical assumption, but the titles listed on NOA's site are what's going up through the end of the year, according to them. Why would they not list important stuff like SMW and LTTP, and instead choose to list Altered Beast and Urban Champion?Bartman3010 said:
They could be hoping to surprise us, I guess, but I wouldn't hedge my bets there.

I'd rather have that steady influx at the beginning of next year when there are fewer Wii games out. I haven't even opened Trauma Center yet and I still need to go through Twilight Princess. All these games will come in time. I'd rather they space them out a bit than have one big push and no update for months.
This way nobody would buy games like Solomon's Key. Anyway, It's pretty disappointing what Nintendo is doing at the moment: not bringing high profile games nor low profile games. The only thing that appeared this week was Super Star Soldier. Nothing less, nothing more. That's simply lame.Gigglepoo said:

Eww, no, stretch is bad.SuperPac said:

That is how it works, though I imagine if some game worked particularly poorly they could give it another control scheme. Using the C-stick for the C buttons is how Ocarina of Time/Master Quest/Majora's Mask worked for N64. Actually, I now recall that X/Y/Z also functioned as three of the C buttons. With the Classic Controller having an additional shoulder button, there should be a button for each of the C buttons, though they'll be spread across the controller.jwj442 said:
Yeah, yesterday's update was basically Nintendo's version of a new Uno deck. They need to get on the ball already... they had an excuse last week because it was the day after launch, but they've had a week to get this stuff ready... 2-3 games, even if it's just stuff like 10-Yard Fight and Baseball, would have at least shown a little more effort.fresquito said:
Special thanks to Hudson for being wonderful, though.
two quick question.. first to dementia if he is reading right now.. are their any plans from Hudson (assuming you guys are working on the TG-16/PCE emulator) to include aspect ratio correction for 16:9 TVs?
second question for everyone. I already have a couple of wavebirds.. is the classic controller better for VC games or are the wavebirds good enough?

Right, and I totally agree with this. However. I would like to think that everyone understood that I meant that the disappointment of ONE game popping on the VC yesterday is the Nintendo equivalent of people waiting for an XBLA game and getting an Uno deck instead.RaidenZR said:
borghe, if you can get your hands on a classic controller, go for it. There's no better way to play the 8/16-bit VC games. You may want to use the WaveBird for N64 titles though, depending on whether you prefer dominant analog controllers (GC, 360) or submissive analog controllers (Dual Shock, CC).

When did last Tuesday's games go up? When did the original update go up? When did yesterday's game go up?
I would love to know if there is a pattern... like a TIME of the day when it gets updated.
Oh, and I WANT GUNSTAR HEROES!
Chemo said:
Ah, okay. I see what you're saying and in that regard, I agree. But seeing as how I don't have $20 to drop on this every single week, a single game here and there is fine by me.
Though, like everyone, I do wish there was more of that regal selection they can boast.
Is 1up updating their VC Guide with every new release? If yes, does anyone have that link handy? I'm curious what they think about the three TG-16 games.
EDIT - I checked their launch VC guide and they have not updated it. I would like to see their thoughts on the TG-16 games (I never owned that lovely little console) and I would like to read their thoughts on all future games as well. 1up guys, get on it!

Is there any website that gives brief summaries of these games? Kind of like what 1up did with the launch titles for the VC?
For instance, the game that showed up today or yesterday or whenever... I've never played it, but it seems like lots of people have good things to say. Anyone have a place where I can get screenshots, reviews, etc? I know I can go search for the game on google and get it but it'd be nice if there was a palce I could go every Monday, see the new games and read about them allin on location

I just hit up YouTube and check out some videos. I trust NeoGAF opinions more than I do any reviewer anyway.

I won't be buying Sega games on the VC cause they just released the Genesis collection that pretty much has all the great games for $20.

You are right.
I always wondered why Toejam and Earl was never on any of the compilations or "TV Games" systems.
MiamiWesker said:
yes but isn't it a pain to have to swap discs to load the genesis collection? the convenience factor of being able to switch to a virtual console game anytime the wii is on overrides anything on discs.
that said, i hope they bring the shining force and phantasy star games to VC soon.
I agree with ami that in no way shape or form is VC a better deal or more convenient than the Sega Collection.
That being said, I also don't think $8 for games like Gunstar, TJ&E, Sonic, etc (Note the lack of Altered Beast) is a bad price. But yeah, especially if you actively use your PS2 or PSP, Sega Collection is the way to go. VC however is the only legit way (short of buying the carts and having a Genesis hooked up) to play those other games.

Alright guys, I need help with a 15 year old game. Any advice on how to get past the huge jump in White Land II (F-Zero)? I believe it's the last course in the Queen Circuit.
My point is that outside of the GAF hardcore/piracy central, lots of gamers don't have the equipment to play the games they would want, or if they do have the equipment they may not have the games or vice versa.
I've been collecting a lot of classic game hardware so VC doesn't excite me as much, except for the PC engine content, so... for me, paying $8 for a Genesis game I never played (dont' have in my collection) is a good deal, of course, as my anecdotal story shows, people are willing to pay 5 times that just to hold on to a cartridge they can't play.
