Should the DSi (or DS2) provide VC support, what would you get?

Donkey Kong '94 (SGB)
Super Mario Land (SGB)
Wario Land (SGB)
Kirby's Dream Land (SGB)
Duck Tales (SGB)

GAME BOY COLOR (500 points each)
Link's Awakening DX

GAME GEAR (500 points each)

How exactly would Super Mario Land, Wario Land, and Kirby's Dream Land benefit from being SGB as opposed to GB? None of those had special support for it.

The lack of color would certainly reduce the price significantly.

Concerning SGB, I cannot see myself playing a Game Boy game without color.

Yeah. Knowing Nintendo, they would start prices at 500 points. No less. They know how valuable (and profitable) a DSi VC would be.

I think the B&W GB games would be 400 points, then GBC at 500, and if GBA were to be included, 800 or 1000 points. But anyway, I bought a whole ton of GB games via eBay at the start of the year, including Link's Awakening DX and Super Mario Land II, so I'm good.

Probably the games that fetch high prices on ebay, as it would be a cheap alternative...

...and Pokemon.

That sounds closer to what they'd do. I wouldn't be surprised if GB started at 500, though it doesn't seem right for them to cost as much as an NES game, esp. the early ones.

Assuming you can only get original games (no remakes like Links Adventure DX or Pokemon FireRed LeafGreen) this is what I'd get. Though, many of these games I didn't play originally, so I'd probably prefer the remakes. Anyhoo.

What I'd download:
GB
Super Mario Land (whole series)
Donkey Kong
Donkey Kong Land (series)
Legend of Zelda: Links Awakening
Metroid II
Wario Land
Pokemon Yellow
Final Fantasy Adventure

GBC
LoZ: OoA
LoZ: OoS
Wario Land 2&3
Shantae

GBA
LoZ: Minish Cap
MK: Super Circuit
Metroid Fusion
Metroid Zero Mission
M&L Superstar Saga
Mario vs. DK
Pokemon Emerald
LoZ: ALttP w/ Four Swords
WW: Twisted

GG
Would get the original carts unless my GG gave up the Ghost.

NeoGeo Pocket Color
Sonic Pocket Color or whatever that game was called.

I think the more interesting question is what 3rd party games would you buy on a DSiVC. I don't see a whole lot listed. Maybe that's why Ninty is hesitant?

I am way too lazy to think of something clever.

Yeah, 500 points would be typical of Nintendo (although 400 would be reasonable).

GB: 400- slightly less than GBC due to its lack of color
GBC: 500- equivalent of the NES
SGB: 100- added to the price of the GB games
GG: 500- equivalent of Master System

And if they so choose
Neo Geo Pocket: 450 points (half the NG)
Neo Geo Pocket Color: 500 points (50 more for color)
Virtual Boy: 250 points (and an extra $50 for the peripheral)
Atari Lynx: 500 points
Game Boy Advance: 800 ponts (equivalent of SNES)
Game & Watch: 100 points, or whatever they charge now

And can you go a little faster?!

Oh, I would probably buy all the GB, GBC and GBA games as long as they are decent and priced right (GB - 500, GBC - 600 and GBA 800).

The reason why GBA games would probably be 1000 points is because they are relatively recent, and are in the same generation as GameCube games. Plus, most GBA games go for about $10+ at GameStop anyway. And those are used.

The SGB was a big deal, since you could play all your favorite GB games in color. I didn't have a GB until the GBC, so I'm too familiar with the color palette rather than the GB's urine-colored screen or the GBP's black & white screen.

The DSi getting a VC would be the only reason I would want to buy one. I see no reason to get it at this point to be honest.

Anyways, here's what I'd get

GBC/GB:
All pokemon games. enough said
LoZ: Oracle of Ages
Super Mario Land (all of them)

GBA:
LoZ: Minish Cap
Metroid Fusion
Kirby: Nightmare in Dreamland
Rebelstar: Tactical Command

.....and that is about all I'd probably get.
