Forums - Nintendo Discussion - With the DSi having no GBA slot, does this open the door for VH games?

We're all aware there will be no GBA slot.

So do you think Nintendo is planning along side dsWare, Virtual Handheld games. Opening up the complete GB, GBC and GBA library to DS owners. It would be completely capable with the SD card and the in built memory.

I think it will happen for sure.... You heard it here first the VHG.

Hell yeah!

They better do so, or else I'm going to be pissed.




Yeah, good be good to have a Virtual Console for Gameboy titles, and would be a good replace for the lack of GBA slot.... but I don't want to buy my games again =(

If Nintendo wants to make more money, yes i see it happening.



They did announce DSWare will cost 200, 500, and 800 points.

I could see those being VH prices.

does anyone know how much memory is in the DSI? 512 mb would be more than enough.



 


I would love that idea and it would open the door for playing those hard to find GB games from back in the day like the 2 final fantasy games that were made for GB.

 a 2.0 or 4.0 GB sd card. will be the solution



I just thought it would also be cool if sega jumped on board as well, imagine game gear games. It would be much more difficult, but cool nontheless.

So basically a Virtual Consoleish service for GBA and older titles? Sounds very likely to me. Should've been the first thing we thought when the news, in fact. =P
