They're allergic to money.
Because they hate both logic and money. They've already gotten them working on the 3DS, proven by the Ambassador games, but they obviously don't want to bring in free money.
Nintendo's strategy with their back catalog has been baffling to me. I never understood why haven't dumped ALL of their past gen games onto Wii, Wii U, and 3DS, instead of randomly trickling the games out.

The Wii U, I can sort of understand because they have to adapt them to be usable on the Gamepad, but the slow one to two games a week trickle is frustrating and sort of makes you want to shoot someone.
Which probably explains why Splatoon is my most played game on the Wii U.
Cause WiiU does GBA-emulation better than 3DS?

Pokemon, it's real easy answer. What is the 1 feature everyone would need working in those games. The trading function. They have to reprogram the games to accept the 3DS hardware. And virtual connections. Now people have to figure out how to do that. Then deal with bugs. All for how many games, 6. Then people would want to internally trade between the emulated games. Another thing they have to figure out. Can the system access the save file from another game. While running another. You can release them and ignore the trading. But then the games would be incomplete. And all the bitching happens. Then you gotta make sure the US versions work too. Remeber the US ones where reporgramed from Blue version. So more issues and bugs would have to be dealt with. In addition to the team working with the japanese versions. Nintendo orphaned R/G/B/Y G/S/C from the rest of the series. Because they didn't want to get a link system working between the GB line to GBA. Now you're asking them to do it all virtually. Yes. The series makes money. But if they don't do it when R/S was coming out. Would they bother when it's a just a VC release. And their was more money in it for them. They could of sold another 4 million special Link cables/adapters. |
They could just limit the trading between the first gen games and the second gen games. as long as you can get a complete set of pokemon for a game, i think that is what a lot of people would want. id be satisfied with just playing red or blue and getting all 150 on one of them.
No idea why. But I'd love to play some gen 3 Pokémon, fire emblem the sacred stones, advance wars 1 and 2, legacy of goku trilogy and kh com on my 3ds if they were ever released.
Oh and they should release ds games on the 3ds E shop we know it could play those easily enough.
They probably didn't want to invest money into developing a reliable emulator, for Gameboy Advance on 3DS. For whatever reason, they might have thought it wouldn't bring in enough cash.
As for pokemon, the only reason besides the trading system I can think of, is that they think the Virtual Console sales might eat into the sales of the latest installment...wich is stupid...
