Am I the only one that LIKES buying old games for cheap on the Virtual Console? Why do you guys hate it so much? It's not like they're charging 80's MSRP for them. I think it's nice.

I would if they weren't 90% shitty Game Boy shovelware nobody cares about.

Still bothered GBA games were never properly put on the eShop. It's not like they can't do it either; they basically whipped up 10 of them for the ambassadors for free.
>>
Honestly, NES games should be free.

Cheap?

Paying for $5+ or whatever for a shitty old game that takes like seconds to download is cheap? You dumb fuck.
>>
I'd buy a lot more if they offered better games, and at better prices. $5 or 8 for such an old game that I can emulate on my phone just feels like a rip. Charge a buck per game or something and I'd be tempted to buy ten.

Overpriced pieces of shit, only if they were a pound then I would consider buying them.

I fucking resent Nintendo for not just releasing everything from NES and SNES and GBA on both 3DS and Wii U.

Their selection is pretty shit, they're overpriced, and it's stuff I can emulate or already own.

They're messed up on the ambassador 3ds. They couldn't even get suspended state to work.

No one can. Nintendo's stance on VC is fucking retarded.

People still buy the godfather movies for $20 each, what's the difference? Old games are actually cheaper

Wanted things are never free, unwanted things can sometimes be free. Why would Nintendo give Donkey Kong, Super Mario, Kirby, Zelda, etc for free when they are classic games a lot of people want.

nigga plz, the only people who buy that shit are probably stupid ass neckbeard who wants to feel hardcore.

i can't even tell if it's bait anymore, or simply just a clever way to derail a thread

I like the Virtual Console, conceptually, but I also pay to see movies so maybe I am some sort of crazy person.

The prices are too high, though. I even think $1-2 off the prices would make it all much more reasonable. Additionally, the selection of games is pretty pathetic; I understand wanting to have weekly releases, but its just not the way digital markets work. Nintendo should perhaps do weekly sales? Even just a dollar off. Like, come on. Finally, not having cross-buy is just terrible- there is no reason I can't play Earthbound on my 3DS.

As I said, conceptually nice, in practice it comes up a bit short in too many key categories to make me a dedicated customer. Most of my VC titles are from Club Nintendo and I like them, though.

@286046569
Shut the FUCK up.
Old games are fucking shit and there's no fucking reason to play them much less PAY for them in 2000 fucking 15 !
