How is Sony's better when they cut out physical media compatibility entirely?  Nintendo's doing both?

And I've no doubt Nintendo will continue compatibility with all their digital platforms going forward.  Unlike Sony though, they'll keep their classic games (ie: Virtual Console) walled off between home and handheld consoles.

I am disappoint. that maxwell didn't address my earlier post but I guess this entire discussion is at it's dusk. Currently, Nintendo has very little content on virtual console compared to let's say psn or xbla.

I agree that Nintendo currently has a better solution but games on psn and account based purchases are a big up aswell. For example, most of the big psp games (don't laugh!) are up on psn and are tied to my account considering I bought them there. This is pretty good yes? Ds games don't really have this infrastructure of account based purchases. Or not yet at least.

All I'm saying is that there is a semblance of BC to ngp and that Nintendo will improve on virtual console, we agree yes?
