I thought the point of the VC was that you wouldn't have the need to search for the physical copies and consoles. Which clutters more space and eventually break or get too old to play. And also the obvious advantage of the suspend point.

Nintendo never promised that. Actually it's obvious you didn't fully understand the last few previous posts: VC isn't that profitable anymore. Which means Nintendo isn't going to waste their time with it especially when they can be working on new IPs that'll ring in more cash than VC ever will.

Just for you.

I still find it hard to believe there's nothing currently in the catalog that interests you.

[/quote] There is, but I already own most of them.

I think the Wii VC's doing alright. We've gotten several big titles like Final Fantasy VI and Mega Man X and there's probably more on the way. The only problem I have is how a couple of consoles are neglected, namely the Commodore 64 and Arcade. The C64 hasn't seen a release in ages and the Arcade's selection is pathetic, especially compared to Japan's (although that can be mainly blamed on Namco for not releasing anything on there in NA and Europe besides those first games). Then there's the Neo-Geo which main problem is the fact that most of the games on there are already on compilations (they also have the problem of having a better selection of games in Japan).

Jesus is the only way.

No, I understood quite clear @Kid_Crono. But you must be confused, because in your previous post you said they weren't being greedy. And now your contradicting yourself. Just about @Mickeymac.

He didn't say they were being greedy in his last post. He simply said they won't support VC when they can make new IP's that will make more money the VC ever could. That's not being greedy. That's just Nintendo trying to make money so they won't go out of business.

Obviously you haven't because if you would have read my post correctly I never said Nintendo was greedy. I said people who complain about VC and want more games every friggen' week, are greedy. Like you. There's more than enough on the service to download from any genre of any quality. Go nuts

Just for you.

Nintendo is making plenty of money. I don't see how I'm being greedy Kid_Crono? It's not like I'm not paying for them. Like you said I'm willing to pay more for them than they're worth.

Nintendo is making plenty of money.

But VC isn't. The Virtual Console doesn't make enough money to be supported by its own profits. "Greed" isn't a factor here. If a company's primary goal isn't to make money, the company will disappear.

Well @SKTTR, this is the "Example of what is wrong with the VC" thread. Not the "Defend your favorite shi**y shooter" thread. lol

I'm not defending anything. I'm just saying how it is. Super EDF is not my favourite shooter, but the favourite of a girl I know. She's nostalgic about this game because she played it back in 1993 when it was new and awesome. Hope you are able to understand now: A filler-game for you is the best-VC-week-ever for someone else on the planet.

Hahah yeah.
With such a crazy wishlist to boot, his whining about the VC's latest offering (Super EDF) seems idiotic.
I mean, Super EDF is actually pretty decent... it's leagues above Superman 64... and it's also better than some other games on his wishlist... And well... it can't get much worse than Superman 64. It really is abysmal!
That guys reasoning remains a mystery.

Example of what is wrong with VC? No Contra NES (or anything else Konami) these days. Example of a massive, gaping, void-like hole in a system on VC's resume.

Let's attack aggressively, kupo! :D

What annoys me most about the Virtual Console was that companies decided to release their crappy games in some cases when they had better games in their catalog that still haven't been released on the Virtual Console.

Did Capcom really have to release six of their earliest arcade games when only one was actually desired? Even if there were limitations on how large an arcade game they can release, there are still better games they could have released instead from the eighties.

So did the Virtual Console in the same time frame.

I still find it hard to believe there's nothing currently in the catalog that interests you.

There are about two games left that I want. Cybernator and Legend of the Mystical Ninja. There are a few others that I may try if I had spare points but don't really want them (Faxanadu, Star Tropics 2).

Wow, your actually seeing this from the direction I am. At least one person can see what I mean, by how the companies know what they're doing.
