So people complain about the droughts but why is it so hard to release more games for Nintendo? They could easily remaster some games, espacially games who were never localized like Fatal frame 4. This game could be an entirley new game for the West and it would cost next to nothing porting it over to the Wii U, the Wii and Wii U have the same architecture after all.

Sony is pumping out one remaster after another to hold people over to Uncharted 4 which is a smart move. You would think Nintendo would do the same since its so easy to port Wii games to the Wii U but they dont.

tell me what you think

Nintendo hates Wii U owners.

Fatal Frame remaster is not worth it, just look at how NOA treated the latest release.

A simple digital VC release would do. GC and Wii should be emulated for their next gen systems.

Then you'd get more of these Japanese Wii games! I'd love to try PZ4, Takt of Magic and Zangeki no Reginleiv in all its 480p glory.

Sadly this is true. Also a VC release of Fatal Frame 4 makes no sense too. Cause if they do a pure port, than the game wouldn't be localized and still had the original bugs in it.

Would be kind of cool if Nintendo asked the fan-translators, if they could put their translated version on VC ... This would solve the language problem, but the bugs would still be in the game.

 

However there are a few Wii games, which would even make sense to put on VC. For example they could put Disaster Day of Crisis and Fatal Frame 2 on the US-E-Shop and Excite Bots on the EU-E-Shop.

They can barely do VC...

 

thats because they are stupid. The Wii U can access the Wii store and menue but only if you have the controller. They could easily put all the previous Wii titles who supported the pro controller on the Wii U store as classics. The Wiis VC is a lot lot bigger than the Wii Us one



Why i left PC gaming

 

(2015) Question for PS4 owners: if the situation would be reverse? would you still play on PS4?

I would love to see that of course but wiiU has Wii compatibility and virtual console - I am not sure I want to be able to play teh game with disc - buy it digital and have it remastered all in one console.



Switch!!!

Remaster are too expensive for Nintendo considering how they will sell on Wii U.




Dr.Vita talks about Playstation Vita in 2016!
Playstation Vita Media Create Sales (2014 vs 2015 vs 2016)
Playstation Vita Japan Retail Software Sales (2013 vs 2014 vs 2015 + 2015 LTD Edition)
Prediction: Nothing will outsell PSP anymore (except Playstation home consoles)

How about Nintendo lowers their damn prices?

Sick and tired of seeing old games near original price. Come on Nintendo, get your slack together.

Nintendo love to port games, and then charge full price for a very old game.

If they only cost like a 1/3 of current price, im sure they would sell more than 3 times as many and make up the differnce.

Also they would have happier console owners.

 

Theres no reason SNES games should be 8-10$ still.

Games that releases like 25 years ago, they earned their profits in, they should just be there as a "additional" bonus for users.

A incentive to buy a nintendo console.

Basically snes games should be selling for like 2$, so people wouldnt even hesitate in getting something to play if they are bored.

Yeah... i would rather they did more GC remasters.

Localization of the games I mentioned could be trouble, so the ones you suggest at the end should be easy peasy.
Sure you don't want Another Code?

Those are hindrances I had during launch, and it could be done they just prefer to sell the titles again.
