Should GB & GBC games be on the Virtual Console?

[Rawburt]

How about you make them to where you can play them on DSi and Wii through SD card use?

DSi, yes. Wii, no.

Why not do both, lots of people don't have the DSi after all.

Because games for handheld systems should be on a handheld Virtual Console. Besides, you wouldn't be able to ]But buying a system that is pretty much the same to a system you already have is dumb.

There are many differences between the DS Lite and DSi. People are just too ignorant to care. >_> If you play one for yourself, you'll see that it's definitely worth it.

Pretty much every new feature I've heard on that system is pretty much useless.

I have one. The only difference is one has a cheap camera and shovelware, the other a GBA slot and longer battery life.

No. Ninendo needs to stop shoveling out crap that costs a fortune so you can get 2 extra features.

Or you could just use your DS Lite to play games you got from Ebay or some used game store.

Then you obviously don't care enough to see the good in it. And you completely left out DSi sound, with which you can play your music from an SD card and record your own sounds, and it has lots of fun ways to distort your music and sounds. And the cameras are very fun to play with, with lots of filters to mess around with, and also their inclusion in some DSiWare and DSi-only/DSi enhanced games. There's also the bigger screens and stylus, improved Wi-Fi, upgraded PictoChat, the DSi Menu, the new Power button and volume control, hot swapping games, the ability to change the backlight brightness at any time, the DSi Browser, Flipnote Studio, uploading pictures from DSi Camera directly to Facebook, and more... You're just being ignorant. The DSi is a huge improvement on the DS Lite. The only thing it lacks is the GBA slot, which isn't a problem if you just keep your GBA, GBA SP, GBm, DS, or DS Lite. >_> And DSiWare isn't full of shovelware. There are some really great games on there, like Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Minis March Again! and Art Style: PiCTOBiTS.

None of those features really justify buying it if you have DS Lite imo, you can do those things if you have a computer or cell phone anyway.

No, no you can't. You can't play DSiWare or DSi-only/enhanced games that use the DSi's cameras on a computer. You can't edit and distort pictures with the features of DSi Camera. You can't play your music and record things and distort your music and sounds on the go. You just can't get the DSi experience any other way than playing a DSi. Maybe the DSi isn't for you. Maybe you don't need all the additions and improvements. Okay, fine, then stick with your DS Lite. But there's no reason for you to bash the DSi. Nintendo still sells the DS Lite for a reason; to give the consumer a choice. It's the same reason they made the DSi XL. What's so bad about choice in a system? Xbox 360, PS3, and PSP sure have their choices with all their different models, but I don't see you complain about them.

 

[Ciaran]

Of anyone is reading this considering getting a dsi, if you already have a ds lite then honestly dont bother, save the money, it SO wasnt worth it.

Low quality music, pictures, terrible internet connection and lack of great games on dsi store.

PSP Choices: PSP or PSP Go
XBox Choices: Arcade, Elite, and Pro
PS3 Choices: Too lazy, but its just different GBs.

And now for DS: DS Lite, DSi, DS Phat, DSi XL
DS is really the only one with any worthless models, except for maybe PSP, and have far too many for a handheld, anyways.

I'm not bashing the DSi, it would make an alright purchase if you didn't have DS Lite. I'm against the idea of only the DSi having VC. Making a consumer buy the same thing again with a new feature to play more games is a terrible thing to do for a video game console. That's not "giving people options," that's straight up greed.


And yes, if other gaming companies did that I would be against it too, I don't hate Nintendo like you seem to think I do.

If your talking about "worthless" models, then the only ones I see are the different models of Xbox 360 and PS3, which are just different hard drive sizes. Now that's what's worthless. As for the DS, Nintendo doesn't even sell the original DS anymore, so you shouldn't list it. The DS Lite, DSi, and DSi XL all have their target audience. The DS Lite is for people who want the cheapest one they can get, or want to play GBA games and don't have a GBA. The DSi is for people who want a better system with more features and DSiWare and prefer portability over screen size, and the DSi XL is for people who would rather have bigger screens. Xbox 360 and PS3 are just different hard drives. Seems like a waste, if you tell me. It's just like Window's various different versions of their operating system. Why not just make one standard one, if the only difference is that some don't have as much as the others? Nintendo doesn't do that. They only add features to their systems, not take them away (the only thing that goes against this is the removal if the 10-year-old GBA support, which is reasonable) and slap a lower price on it.
