Forums - Nintendo - Is VC returning???

I'm still waiting for Road Rash 64.



Around the Network

I don't even care anymore

No goldeneye, DK64, Perfect dark, Turok, Ken Griffey slugfest, blitz, bomberman 64. Sad.



@pacman91  well to be fair they cant do Goldeneye for legal reasons, Perfect Dark is owned by MS now they do have it on LIVE if you have 360, not sure about Turok, sports games im sure are a no go, and i dont know whats up with Bomberman.  There are some who say that Ninty is sabatoging their own service so more people will support WiiWare I hope this isnt the case but after I thought about it, i dont see no other logical reason why VC dropped so badly



Bah, I was hoping this would be about Valkyria Chronicles returning to PS3.

Anyways, there are soo many classics they can revive, and a good chunk of them have been listed already.



Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

Kojima: Come out with Project S already!

Well, I have Ogre Battle 64 and Super Mario RPG.  All I need to do is get around to downloading Secret of Mana and I'll have the 3 games I wanted the most.  It is sad there are a lot of games people want and companies aren't delivering them.

I love the VC, it has given me the chance to play games like Super Mario RPG, Ogre Battle 64 and Sin and Punishment, which never came out over here, for a fraction of the price of importing them.  Even games that came out over here are far cheaper on the VC.

My only gripe with it is that only import games play in 60hz, regular ones play in 50hz which makes the Mega Drive Sonic games look horrible.




Right now it seems to be getting more niche stuff from Natsume and Sunsoft for the most part.  There's still the occasional Square Enix, Hudson, SNK, etc game now and then too.

Capcom's bringing their arcade games now too.  Other than that it's been pretty quiet.

 

I think Nintendo's pretty much done though.  We might still get a few of their missed seminal titles if we're lucky (Yoshi's Island, Star Fox, Earthbound, Duck Hunt, DK Arcade, etc) but for the most part I expect them to move on to the 3DS VC.

@twestern  I made this thread because I was actually shocked to see that game on VC. FYI i hope it does revive VC but as for the game itself I heard it wasnt that great, someone said it was an JRPG made for US audiences back in the day who sucked at JRPGs kind of like a Fisher Price My first JRPG deal.


It's not a terrible RPG, it's just a terrible game.

It does have an AWESOME soundtrack though. <3



Rumor has it Faxanadu for the NES is coming at some point too. That would be amazing.



Bah!

I thought it was out already, I'll have to check.

 

Edit: I checked and it's been announced by Nintendo for November in EU.



Signature goes here!
