Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Portable SNES Might Be Better Than Nintendo's 3DS

CDiablo on 31 December 2012

I saw this elsewhere this thing sucks, there are a number of cool handheld SNESes, this is just a snes in a box that has a LCD



Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.

I would like to add it to my collection, but other than that I would prefer that Nintendo just release the full Wii Virtual Console on the 3DS. That way it is still truly portable.



"Games are a trigger for adults to again become primitive, primal, as a way of thinking and remembering. An adult is a child who has more ethics and morals, that's all. When I am a child, creating, I am not creating a game. I am in the game. The game is not for children, it is for me. It is for an adult who still has a character of a child."

This is pretty cool. I still want a 3DS though. Those Japanese imports are looking good everyday

I have that one, but it doesn't emulate games or anything. It doesn't do GBA games either. Which is fine, I have the DS with the old port...

and that would be illegal. getting free snes games that are on the vc is illegal.

Edit: I was talking about emulators.

I figured that's what Nintendo store was for anyway in this case. Though they're not gonna have all the games ready and if you own the carts already, it'd still thereotically nice to be able to carry them around with you... legalities aside. It's like what you could do with homebrew on your Wii and hooking up to your own harddrive. Now with the Wii U, they've made it a standard feature instead of having to do a hack to make it possible.(?) If I'm not mistaken..

almost all of these cards can at the very least run GB/GBC emulation, most can do Picodrive and a few very dodgy super nintendo emulators will run on them, but not well and not in any state you would want to play them at. Take a look for jEnesisDS, Lameboy or NesDS if you are interested and of course if you legally own games to play on said emulators! I just wanted to be able to have my lovely pokemon yellow game on my 3ds :D

well you can connect a harddrive to the wiiu yeah, but you can't run any unsigned code from it like you can a hacked wii. it's just there as space for the nintendo eshop to download games and patchs etc onto.
