| OneTime said: In my opinion they should just concentrate on new games. They can do new versions of old games (like New Super Mario Bros), but simply emulating back catalogue isn't where they should be investing. |
I would rather spend $50 to have an easy and convenient way to play N64 games on my modern system with a beautiful OLED screen than spend $200+ on an N64 and a game like Paper Mario. The ridiculous prices of retro games shows Nintendo that they need to capitalize on the demand for legacy content. With people shelling out dumb amounts of money on retro games Nintendo would be foolish to not sell their old games to people and use the money that they get from it to better fund their studios and hire new talent. Emulating Genesis, NES, SNES, GB, and GBA games takes such little effort that I highly doubt they are diverting much from new games.
