No he was right the first time. The Virtual Console doesn't offer anything new that can't be found in the game's original cartridge so it only benefits those that don't own the original. You'll get nothing of any value with the VC...


Actually, the N64 games are upscaled to 480p due to the way the emulator works, so they actually look better than normal N64 carts. In addition, if you use component-out, every emulated game has less of the blur predominant in the composite and RF connections of yore, sharper colors, and better contrast.

And besides that, having a little white rectangle sitting on your shelf is far more convenient, far less obtrusive and cumbersome, and probably much cheaper than having an NES, SNES, N64, Genesis, Master System, and Turbo Duo (and C64 for you blokes in Europe), and having to switch between them.

1. I meant something new in the game itself. Having an N64 game upscale to 480p is sorta irrelevent when the games all look like ass regardless.

2. You're basically arguing that people would prefer digital distribution to physical media. We've had this argument before in these forums and most agree they would rather have the actual game in hand instead of a little white window in their console regardless of how many consoles it takes to make it happen.
