@BlueOcean I hope that somehow Microsoft and Nintendo’s newly minted friendship brings forth a potential Rareware collection to our beloved Switch system. I really want to play Banjo Kazooie, JetForce Gemini, Goldeneye, DK64 and Perfect Dark (remastered) again.
@Ikana64 pray tell- would I be able to -ahem- siphon and plug in old SNES, Genesis, GBA, N64 and other bits onto this system? My head is reeling with the potential possibilities.
@BlueOcean -salivating induced nostalgia intensifies- good golly gobs, man. You’re making my head spin with joy with these prospective proposed adventures!
@Redax I think the genesis may have had a better sound chip back then? I can’t really remember and I’m too exhausted at the moment to Google it.
You may be right though?
@BlueOcean very useful information, this I did not know as well. Looks like I might have to purchase a used or refurbed Wii console soon, haha. If only we could access Nintendo’s servers and download more VC games. There were so many great games and refreshed titles like Castlevania Rebirth I wanted to try before the VC was shut down. Breaks my heart not having those gems in my collection. Thank you so much for helping me.
@BlueOcean oh that’s absolutely delightful to know, thank you. I loved the GC era of games and if I can get these bits and bobs working on my home set up, I will be a very happy ghoul.
Thank you for letting me know this sort of tech exists. I wonder if I could employ someone or order a modded set up online...
@Ikana64 would you mind telling me which programs and or components I could use to do what you did for your WiiU? I too have a library of classic games I wish to play and access again via ROMs.
@Zeldafan79 Roms and Emulators are necessary for game preservation as it is sometimes the only way to get a chance to replay some of these classics these days as their physical components and or operating systems are out of date/obsolete.
These methods and technologies will never go away nor should they as they pave the way for innovation, preservation and appreciation.
Why sit and whine about this sort of thing?
If you see an article you don’t like in the future, just don’t read it.
Let people have their fun.
It’s really that simple.
EDIT- Reading your comment made me suspect you were griping about the content in this article; unless you edited said comment earlier my response to you still stands. Hehe.

I love this but 500 smackers is ridiculous.

@BlueOcean -joyful nostalgia induced coma intensifies- I may very well have to at this point, bud. Hahaha.
