Wii U virtual console is surprisingly fair, I expected something shady. Thats why I never bought anything digital on the Wii.
Ongoing bet with think-man: He wins if MH4 releases in any shape or form on PSV in 2013, I win if it doesn't.

I agree 100% i was very excited that games that you already own on wii can be rebought for so cheap. For me it's worth the extra money to play them on the gamepad or with my wiiu pro controller. Plus there are also new features like miiverse integration and restore points. It just seems really really fair to me. I just hope all the games I bought on wii eventually make it over to wiiu.
I had the same idea as Audry. Sure it missing the crossplay from PS3/Vita, but it's as good as it gets! And the users who already have the games on Wii, it's just ONE dollar a game for the upgrade and I envy thos users. Free is better, but 1 dollar is a whole lot better (and quite frankly a steal) than coughing up the prices such as Ebay and it's legit from a company that was made from!
So I don't get all this complaint that the world is going to end... :D

I know it works straight from Wii to Wii U, but I'm just worried that the save data won't wok for the updated versions.
it's perfectly reasonable for additional services?
..and here i thought the $300 spent an a system advertised to have cool features like gamepad support would have been enough of a surcharge. it's not like it's an upgrade to the game you bought, it's an upgrade to the wiiU's OS and when was the last time anyone has charged for OS support?!? nintendo can do whatever they want but the sheer fact they can discount the game means they know you already bought it means it is insulting to make you buy it again even at a reduced cost.
this is just bad business. nintendo's ultra fans make be able to justify this to themselves out of love, most reasonable people will not.
| superchunk said: I have 30 VC Gamez. I had said before that I would be furious if I had to debut VC games as the whole point of VC is that its simulation and the same game digitally isn't a big cost to Nintendo. Its not upgraded .. its the same game from the 80s or 90s. No HD no new levels no new controls.... not even a disc. However, $1 to a foreseeable $2 (n64) is perfectly reasonable. You are getting gamepad off TV support and the ability to carry the game forward at least to the next Nintendo console. Given they at least do it like wii to wii u. That's worth my $20 to $30 to upgrade specific titles. I'm happy with this solution. Plus a couple will actually only be $0.30. :) |
unless they charge you another $20 to $30 next time as well..
tagging this thread to come back here the next time Sony or Microsoft charging for something
“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”
