Because apparently few people download GBA games.

Ah, Europe.
Getting Fire Emblem, Golden Sun 2 and 3 DKC games MONTHS before NA, and still complaining about 3 Castlevania games, on a service barely anyone buys GBA games.
It's almost comical how so few people buy the GBA VC games (most just complain they're not on 3DS) and so many complain they're not available in your territory.

Super Mario Advance 3: Yoshi's Island
Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga
Mario Party Advance
WarioWare
Wario Land 4
The Legend of Zelda: Minish Cap
Mega Man Zero
Mega Man Battle Network
Mega Man Battle Chip Challenge
Metroid Fusion
Kirby and the Amazing Mirror
Kirby: Nightmare in Dreamland
F-Zero Maximum Velocity
Fire Emblem
Fire Emblem: Sacred Stones
Golden Sun
Golden Sun: The Lost Age
Advance Wars
Pokemon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire
Kuru Kuru Kururin
Pac-Man Collection

I already have the ambassador games on 3DS so I won't be buying any of those for Wii U (unless they included multiplayer).

The only GBA games I've bought so far are Fire Emblem and Pokémon Pinball: Ruby and Sapphire, and only because I'm hopeful that Nintendo will provide a discount (if not allow us to download them for free) once the New 3DS version is released. I'll also buy Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald in a heartbeat if they decide to release those on Wii U (those would be just about the ONLY Pokémon VC games that I would prefer on the big screen as opposed to the 3DS). I'd've downloaded Mario and Luigi and Mario Party Advance if they were released for the 3DS though (and I expect that they will be available once the New 3DS is released in the U.S. and Europe).

I feel that GBA games are a better fit on a handheld device. I just can't see myself playing any of these games on the big screen. I barely play Fire Emblem and Pokémon Pinball as it is. If they bothered to incorporated multiplayer into these games, I definitely would have bought a lot more. $9 is lousy value for a ROM dump that is missing key features from the original game.

Advance Wars was tempting, but the only other Advance Wars game I have is Dark Conflict, which was ridiculously difficult. If Intelligent Systems give it the Fire Emblem: Awakening treatment and make it more accessible for n00bs such as myself, I might consider setting my foot in another Advance Wars game should they release a new one for the 3DS.

Super Mario Advance 3: Yoshi's Island
WarioWare
Wario Land 4
The Legend of Zelda: Minish Cap
Fire Emblem
Mario Power Tennis
Klonoa: Empire of Dreams

(I will get Mario vs Donkey Kong and the Castlevania games (in order after finishing one) / Drill Doser / Astro Boy / Gunstar Super Heroes / A Link to the Past).

Only way I am getting other stuff without a discount is if I really want to play it immediately.

I suggest you get Advance Wars then because the first is the ultimate hand holding experience and I'm not joking.

With that said I only own Advance Wars because I just wanted to see how GBA games played on the Wii U. There is plenty more I may get one day but I'm not really into re-playing games I've already played when I have so much I haven't finished. Btw Mario and Luigi to me is the best GBA game. Why I didn't get that is because my son is more into strategy games and he would play it more then me.

I've never played my GBA games on TV - always the Game Pad. The Game Pad is a much better handheld device than actual handhelds to me.

I have M&L and Megaman Zero, one of these days I will get Poképinball too.

I will comment in this thread, never being able to find it again.

Krambo42

Yoshi's Island
Metroid Fusion
Minish Cap
Mario Kart Super Circuit

I also plan on getting the 3 Castlevania games, Wario Land 4 and F-Zero Maximum Velocity at some point. I'll get Mario vs. Donkey Kong, Mega Man & Bass and Metroid Zero Mission if they ever come out, too.

I actually love playing GBA games on the Wii U. If they were available on both the Wii U and 3DS I'd still choose the Wii U.

I've only got Metroid Fusion, Wario Land 4, Zelda Minish Cap and Yoshi's Island so far but I planning on getting Metroid Zero Mission when it's released and Drill Dozer if it's get an UK release. I'm also keeping an eye on GBA Fire Emblem, Mega Man, Klonoa and Golden Sun titles if they go on sale or if I run out of other games to play.

Both Fire Emblem games

When Super Mario Advance gets a European release I'll probably get that as well for the Mario Bros. remix as much as Super Mario Bros. 2, which I've never played.
