Well I think they'll do one for gameboy and maybe the GBA heck they already have the game and watch seris in Japan

Switch is 9th generation. Everyone else is playing on last gen systems! UPDATE: This is no longer true. 2nd UPDATE: I have no Switch 2. I am now behind

Nintendo has indeed talked about a VC-like thing for the DSi, but apparently their intention is to use it for portable games. Console games will stay on the Wii, which, conversely, won't get the portable games.



Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.

What do I hate about modern gaming? I hate tedium replacing challenge, complexity replacing depth, and domination replacing entertainment. I hate the outsourcing of mechanics to physics textbooks, art direction to photocopiers, and story to cheap Hollywood screenwriters. I hate the confusion of obsession with dedication, style with substance, new with gimmicky, old with obsolete, new with evolutionary, and old with time-tested.
There is much to hate about modern gaming. That is why I support the Wii.

I wosh nintendo did put virtual console on the dsi. Though I so far only see it for SNES and NES games.
