Love to hear about the humble begginings and how it can grow to what it is today. Congrats guys, been a Nintendo Lover for 23 years now. This is the first site i've made a real effort with in an online community way. Here's to a great 2014

Re: Microsoft Wants You To Know That Its Surface Tablet Can Play SNES Games

I first experienced emulation on the PC when i got Pokemon Yellow for the GB on there wbefore the game had even been released in the UK. If anything that led me to buy Pokemon Blue for the GB shortly after to experience the game properly. In the mid '00s i got hold of Discs on ebay that had 100s of Mega Drive, SNES, NES, GB roms on, so owned the monopoly of retro gaming. I got a lot of enjoyment out of them games but still when it came round to buying my wii i have opted to pay and download the true classics i wanted to own again. Emulation has never taken anything away from my spending on Nintendo products, and probably never will.

@ungibbed Yeh i really don't know why the US model was soo damn chunky looking. They went back to the Super Famicom style for the European release, so not sure why they changed it. That one still looks slick by todays standards of consoles. But the NTSC model is very Lego looking

@MeWario Yeh i think that pricing Super Mario Bros 3 at the same price as some of the NES's poorer affairs does take away from the cleverness of the VC or eshop. I'd more likely purchase some of the poorer titles (when i get a wii u) if they were a helluva lot cheaper.
