| Joelcool7 said: Personally I can understand the GameCube backwards compatability being dropped. If this is the case I'll be putting my GCN games and Wii in storage. I've pulled my DreamCast out every once in awhile to play PowerStone I would probably like having my Wii to play my good old GCN games. I got suckered out of my GameCube. EBGames was only accepting 5 pre-orders for Wii's. If you wanted to pre-order you either had to pre-order in full or trade in your GameCube for a 50$ pre-order. I didn't have the 279.99$ on hand at the time so I had to trade in my beloved GameCube...sob...sob! |
You could buy one from Amazon used for $20 plus 4 dollars for shipping.
On Topic: They will not have GCN support for their next system. Like some have said before they only go so far with backward compatibility. That is the reason why I bought the DS Lite instead of the DSi when I decided to buy the DS again. I wanted the GBA port since I just got 2 of the GBA Fire Emblems to play (my 20 plus GBA games also). I expect Wii backwards compatibility but if they didn't support that then I wouldn't really care. I would just keep my Wii plugged into the component cable and their next system plugged into HDMI (my tv only has one component cable input so I suppose the Wii owns that input for a long time).
