Dehry posted:The original DS had all the hardware to play GBA games. Since the 3DS is maintaining that backwards compatibility, I wouldn't be surprised if the ambassador games are just using the legacy GBA hardware to run. It would explain why there are no savestates, native resolution, or menu access. Wait, is the GBA hardware really still basically built into the 3DS? Wouldn't surprise me but I thought they took out the GBA hardware on the DSi. Maybe that was just the cartridge slot?

Blackbelt Bobman posted:Nintendo will not release an emulation that is anything less than 100% accurate. That's why it takes forever for poo poo to come out. They don't build one emulator and copy/paste roms into it, they build an individual emulator for each game in order to make sure it is 100% accurate. That's the type of company Nintendo is. I have a feeling that a more accurate assessment is that they are really out of touch and don't know how to run an online digital store. But yeah all their stuff tends to run beautifully.

Have they ever done a monthly bonus for CN games? That's pretty neat.

Speaking of it, how does Super Metroid look when it's blown up onto a large HD screen? What kinds of filters and options are there and how do they work out? I would assume they would do something to the emulator output to make it look better.

How much is that in Dogecoins Spoke too soon- so they've added some content and new block types. Well the Wii U isn't busy with anything else so I'll pick this up if it happens to come stateside

I think sometimes they'll bend the lovely rules of their lovely online shop system if you flat-out call them up and ask/complain about it. No guarantees, though.

Ghost Recon: Shadow Wars is on sale for 7.50 now so it's a good time to pick it up if you like strategy RPG games at all. Surprisingly good game- when I was playing it I was like "huh, seems like XCom". Looked it up and the dude who designed the original XCom apparently had a heavy director/management role in putting this one together. Nice. Also it is basically a GI Joe Saturday morning cartoon version of a typical Tom Clancy story, which is hilarious to me.

Medium Cool posted:I was a fan of the card game as a kid and I enjoyed it. It's not as good as the main series but it's a fun time waster. Yeah, I remember liking it too. How do they decide what games on the VC they bring to what regions anyways? Can it be any more effort to throw it up on the NA store?

deafmute posted:I've been able to download from Wii U and 3ds eShop today without any problems. What part do you get to in the process? Does your memory card have enough space to hold it(the game is over 2.2gigs I think)? Get to the screen where you have to choose "download now" or "download later" and the process will look like it starts for a moment when I click either of them but then it will fail a few seconds later.

GBC Mario Golf is supposedly a surprisingly good game with relaxing music and weirdo little RPG elements. I guess SF64 if you don't have it would be a good one?

Jawidar posted:Is Assassin's Creed 4 worth a look for that price? Haven't heard much about it on Wii U. If you cannot play it on a PC that can run it or a PS4 then yeah. Game has serious framerate issues on PS3/WiiU but it is a good game regardless if you aren't completely burned out on AC. It is way better than AC3.

Typical garbage sales for NA area, but Nano Assault Neo is a pretty cool Starfox-y game if you're looking for something like that. I don't know if Neo is like basically a straight port of the 3DS game or not, but it really wouldn't matter as it's pretty good.

Turning the sensitivity up helps as well, but it is an undeniably awkward control scheme until you get used to it and play for a while. Also you may not have found your favorite weapon type yet. (Protip: Cannons suuuuuuuuck uugghhhhh)

It is really good; I got it for the 3DS as a Club Nintendo reward thingy and then dug out my SNES and the old cart so I could play it with the Super Game Boy effects/custom palettes.

Oh man, if you've never played Demon's Crest you really should. Solid mechanics and a sorta Metroid-like element where new powers open up new passages in the levels; which you can revisit.

I mean maybe it's not "bad" on a technical level but it is also an incredibly rote and boring open-world game so you probably shouldn't play it unless you somehow haven't had your fill of tepid open world games.

As much as I love the Wii U, I still don't think I've seen anything that really validates that drat touchscreen's existence. I guess off-TV play is cool, and if you have kids you can rig it up to play in the car fairly easily but man that's really it.

Son of Isaac posted:How different is Pushmo World from the 3DS game? Everything I've seen makes it seem like a high-def port. They add a few different types of blocks/gadgets, but it's basically a hi-def level pack. Which can be a good or bad thing, depending on how much more Pushmo you want to play. There's also a global thing where you can go online and download puzzles other people have made.

It's fun enough, kinda short though.

Kelp Plankton posted:I think the only DS VC thing I'd like to see is a Super Mario 64 DS that uses the circle pad properly for movement. That would require some extra work though, since the original game used the touch screen for that stuff (and I had forgotten about that weird thumb-pad stylus nub thing they packed in with the original DS, did anyone ever use that?). It feels pretty good with the CirclePad, but I guess it isn't really analog stick support, yeah. I would buy a re-jiggered M64DS.
