The big deal are the people thinking nintendo will waste resources like that. They won't remaster games that don't need any remastering and are available on the system through BC anyway. reprints can be made and digital will always be there.

Ok, but wasn't the whole point of this thread that Nintendo wouldn't need to waste recources if Tantalus was handling their remasters?

I mean, to my knowlegde Tantalus hasn't been offering any amazing first or third party original IPs for Nintendo systems we'd be missing out on, if they were busy remastering things. They're very good at ports though. So where's the harm?

The only resource Nintendo would be 'wasting' is money. And if the resulting remasters have good sales that wouldn't be a waste but an investment.

Nintendo doing it themselves or paying someone else is still a waste of resources if it's a remaster of a game that doesn't need one (all wii u games).
