Support NeoGAF

Why is it that its just now that 3rd parties want to put games on the wii U VC

 

[Madao]

There is a minimal amount of input latency. I believe newer N64 VC releases have almost fixed this, so it isn't too bad. The games also have a dark filter placed over them to reduce epilepsy issues.

Other than that, they are the exact same games but with the frame rate sometimes improved.

nope. lag is still the same even on the newest releases. i played FZX the other day to compare and it has awful input lag. worse than on Wii VC.

the dark filer is unacceptable since other VC platforms completely lack this thing (GBA is the most obvious one) and is there just to screw with the games. the games lack a pixel perfect mode and that's why they look blurry (again, comparing to GBA VC since that also has pixel perfect modes)

N64 VC on Wii U is absolutely dreadful even comparing to another VC system on the exact same console. there's no excuse to support or downplay this since, if GBA can be as good as it is, why can't N64?

 

[PSqueak]

AAAAWWW SHIIIIET! This game was my jam when i was a teen! Gotta get it.

Advertisement and money on the side while Switch VC takes its time to get ready?

The best bomberman game has returned 😎😎😎😎
Loved the single player and loved the multiplayer
Man if they enhanced this on switch with online multiplayer I'd go nuts

[nickgia]

Cannot wait 5 years to get it on Switch.

 

[Lionel Richie]

Thanks Konami, this game is absolutely awesome.

 

[shiyrley]

WAIT WHAT

this implies that it will probably launch on Switch too eventually

YESSSSSSS

 

[Quadraphonic]

That Bomberman game was nuts. Even with cheats, it took a hell of a lot of effort to get all the outfit pieces.

Remember to POUND the start button a lot at the title screen to unlock more multiplayer levels.

 

[Phu]

We'll be lucky if it's as little as 5.

 

[shiyrley]

We'll be lucky if it's as little as 5.

I sold my Wii U to afford my Switch and emulation for this game is trash. I could play it on my original N64... at 50 hertz lol

I really want this to get on Switch soon. Maybe because of Super Bomberman R Nintendo and Konami are currently buddies about Bomberman in VC

 

[RPG_Fanatic]

Yes. I never fully beat this game, only Bomberman Hero and Second Attack. I hope this means second attack is coming as well.

 

[Hilarion]

It's not really that good.

There are 72 GBA games on the WiiU VC. GBA emulation is superb and it has one of the best libraries of any system ever. My WiiU is often a GBA player and I love that.

 

[Mrbob]

Put me in the"Would have bought on Switch" camp too. Not touching this on WiiU as I don't want to pay twice for this game when it comes to Switch.

Yup. The fact the Switch is a real handheld makes me want GBA VC sooner.

 

[BBWCongaLine]

Mannnnn this is so great! I mean, yeah I wish it were on switch or at least came out sooner in the wiius life, but I'll take it.

Best 64 Bomberman. And that soundtrack.... Yes.

 

[RedSwirl]

I'll think about getting 2nd Attack. I'm not confident about the future viability of my VC purchases but people said 2nd Attack was awesome, I never got to play it, and it's expensive as shit these days.

 

[Nocturnowl]

Home of the first heel turn I ever got hit with in a videogame, still shook to this day.

 

[Mechanized]

The only good Bomberman game.

Yeah, those games look great on the gamepad's resolution.

 

[boiled goose]

Will you be able to play those VC games on Switch or do you have to repurchase them again (and again and again)?

No proper account confirmed so not buying any digital content on any Nintendo hardware.

Not rebuying shit.

 

[Trailblazer34]

Yeah, those games look great on the gamepad's resolution.

Best emulation ever.

 

[NewGame]

Switch doesn't even have VC, WiiU hitting its stride.

 

[Screamapillar]

I get it. Not everyone bought a Switch. Theyre giving Wii U owners something nice. I stopped all Wii U purchases after Paper Mario last October, soon as the Switch announcement came.

 

[jholmes]

this implies that it will probably launch on Switch too eventually

It really doesn't.

 

[polyh3dron]

This is way better than that awful Super Bomberman R game I just bought for the Switch.

The only good Bomberman game.

Saturn Bomberman and Bomberman '94 say hello.

 

[zMiiChy-]

My boyfriend is really happy about this.

It's one of his favorite games.

 

[Yazuka]

My favorite Bomberman game, I sure hope it will be released on Switch VC later too.

 

[Lionel Richie]

The only good Bomberman game.

 

[CopperPuppy]

Loving my Switch, but I'll be picking this up over R.

 

[Novel Mike]

Getting all of the gold cards and 100% this game is absolutely nuts I still can't believe I did that as a kid. Really liked the 'twist' in the story as well didn't really expect it from Bomberman of all things. The sequel The Second Attack was also really good but not nearly as insane although its rare as hell now and goes for well over 150$ now and I really liked seeing a certain character from the first game show up in the second.

 

[Galang]

Wait what the fuck! Didn't know this was happening. Needs to come to Switch too

 

[Fou-Lu]

Judging by the reactions I am assuming this game was actually good? I played and beat it as a child, but don't remember it well.

 

[VARIA]

Will we get any sort of deal/discount from (Switch) VC games that we already own on the Wii U, or are we starting from scratch (AGAIN!) on the Switch?

 

[The Xtortionist]

Rainbow Palace 3 can eat a dick

 

[Vidiot]

Yes! Love the multiplayer in this. So bought!

 

[nicoga3000]

I was going to sell my Wii U becuase I haven't played it in ages. I'm afraid to hook it up to the internet and risk losing CFW.

But Bomberman 64 is seriosuly incredible.

 

[MegaManTrigger]

WAIT WHAT

this implies that it will probably launch on Switch too eventually

YESSSSSSS

How does it imply that at all? Especially when VC release in packets relevant to the device its in. Unless there's something different about the upcoming VC release, I would keep expectations in check.

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

I will probably get this because the multiplayer was amazing. I doubt the Switch one is close to it.

 

[Madao]

Judging by the reactions I am assuming this game was actually good? I played and beat it as a child, but don't remember it well.

the game was pretty good. it was one for the first n64 games where i got 100% back in the day.

i would have bought it again if it wasn't for how crap N64 games are on Wii U VC. it's so bad that it will probably make me not want to even get halfway into the game.

 

[LiveFromKyoto]

I still can't believe this. Like I would buy this if Switch had VC, but I don't want to hook up my Wii U so I won't get it.

What were they thinking

So you think they should drop all support for Wii U the minute the Switch launched? There are still 13 million of them out there, and supply constraints mean most of them couldn't upgrade right now if they wanted to.

 

[Gaspard]

Best Bomberman game I think.

When we get Saturn games on the VC we'll get the best bomberman.

 

[Shizuka]

There are 72 GBA games on the WiiU VC. GBA emulation is superb and it has one of the best libraries of any system ever. My WiiU is often a GBA player and I love that.

And I only ever asked for FFVI. Where is it, Square?

 

[Griss]

Completely absurd for Switch to launch without VC and the dead Wii U still only just now getting certain N64 games. Absurd.

 

[Conrad Link]

Can't wait to see what awesome game next week has!

Oh, ohh now we're getting those N64 VC games we were after. Makes sense!

What's that? 2 years ago? Naar, we just released a new console so it's the perfect time. Definitely not years ago.

 

[ThatsMytrunks]

This is the game that made me fall in love with Bomberman, and it's a shame it came out so late on the Wii U. I hope we can get it on the Switch VC before the week after the system dies.

 

[Sacul64GC]

You can buy Bomberman Hero on wii virtual console on wii/wii u.

What about Bomberman 64 The Second attack? Any region ever get that?

 

[udivision]

Why not both?

You can't release a ROM on two different consoles. People might die. Panda-monium.

 

[Bulzeeb]

If I wasn't already planning to buy a switch I will buy this in a hearthbeat, I still play the game in my old n64 every now and then when I visit my family

The best bomberman game has returned 😎😎😎😎
Loved the single player and loved the multiplayer
Man if they enhanced this on switch with online multiplayer I'd go nuts

I like you

 

[Kevin]

Would buy this if it came to the Switch.
