Instead of Virtual Console the Switch has a substandard subscription system that was last updated with games nobody even remembered or cared about, you made Super Mario 3D All-Stars a limited release for some bullshit reason, same with the long-awaited English version of the original Fire Emblem, and there is still no word on new systems coming to Switch Online. Nintendo's thinking is as backwards as ever. -_- |
I have hundreds of NES, SNES, and Gameboy games on the WiiU, almost entire series of games. Should have bought a WiiU, it had a strong Virtual console, unfortunately it was tied to a console that many people voted with their wallets that they didn't want ... so goodbye MiiVerse, goodbye Virtual Console. I'm glad I didn't miss out. I can fire up the WiiU and play Excite Bike or one of half a dozen Mega-Mans or half a dozen Castlevanias, half a dozen Zeldas, Marios, ect. I spent big while it was available and now have a very nice library of legal NES, SNES, Gameboy, GBC games.
I don't think Nintendo is any different than Disney, they make stuff available for a while then let it slip back into the vault. It isn't lost forever it is under lock and key until the next time they want to monetize it.
