Microsoft owns the rights to Banjo Kazooie, and Activision owns the Bond rights. Therefore no Banjo Kazooie or N64 Goldeneye games on Virtual console.
Actually, there is a chance we might see the Banjo Kazooie games on the 3DS. Microsoft's rivalry with Nintendo does not pertain to handhelds.
Why is it no one understands that anything that has to do with Donkey Kong is Nintendo's and not Rare's? We're talking about IPs here. Banjo-Kazooie is Microsoft's now. Microsoft isn't gonna let their games go on Ninty's platform.
I have played a lot of GBC and GB games. This was my main system for quite a while. I am very fond of portable gaming. I would love to see some Sega Game Gear games too. I think it has bigger potential then most people may see right now. I am excited either way. The 3DS seems like it may take over the whole gaming industry with its lineup. Lets hope!
i know this probabily wont happend, but what about mario camera for the GBC?
This is ground control to major Tom, you've really made the grade. And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear
Now it's time to leave the capsule if you dare
To be honest, I consider the Virtual Console service more of a bonus than a necessity. I don't want to buy a new system just to play old games I beat in the past.
That's how I viewed it, until those old games became the only things worth buying. Hopefully things won't turn out as bad on the 3DS.
You got a good point here, but some other medium is going to jump in with 3DS. which is downloadable demo's / trailers. which keep you hopefully bussy. I dont see VC as a usefull product anyway, only way its actually decent. that you can play old crap aged games back that you either already beaten / owned etc. The quality isn't gona be that great with that.
You basically can ditch your gba, instead of holding it on the side next to your 3ds, to play your old classics etc.
It only eliminates the need for a "old" nintendo device. I only must say. i had gb / gbadvance / ds. There is not a single game i want to replay. they feel totally outdated etc.
Its a nice add for people that dont got the older consoles, or games. But its really not that special to start with. I hope nintendo is giving us some good online options with the 3DS, and not only tag mode trash.

Just like how old books and movies are useless, right? No? I didn't think so. Look man, sometimes games are classic for a reason.

That's too bad. Personally, I still play Game Boy and Game Boy advance games regularly, and there isn't a single one I own that feels crappy or outdated. Maybe I just picked up better games that you did? Who knows.

That I can mostly agree with, except chances are if the 3DS does cost as much as we think it does, I'll be subsisting on those cheap old games until I can finally afford to buy a new game.
Surprisingly, Capcom doesn't have many old GB games to put on the VC (that aren't licensed). Five Mega Man games, Gargoyle's Quest, Bionic Commando and Street Fighter II.
Edgey, Gumshoe, Godot, Sissel, Larry, then Mia, Franziska, Maggie, Kay and Lynne.
I'm throwing my money at the screen but nothing happens!
Mario & Luigi wasn't a launch game...unless you meant the launch of those games.
Yep, I was there at the launch, or actually there when I got off work the day I could get my copy lol.
Oh as for the Four Swords deal. I was like 21 and living on my own then, and finding friends my age at that time with GBAs and link cables wasnt happening. I ended up buying them all
