Gaming Download Play multiplayer for VC games on the way?

[chavosaur]

How I fricking wish that Kirby and the amazing mirror could be used for wireless or Wi-FI multiplayer. XD

Now THAT is an amazing idea...

an amazing idea for the amazing mirror? I see what you did there...
EDIT:
Im wondering what other kind of vc games we could do multiplayer with in the future? If we only have nes/gb games in vc right now, perhaps we can hope for pokemon to be released as vc? Old school battling/trading!

WiFi - Wireless Fidelity. It is simply a name to describe the ability to transmit data between devices wirelessly. Nothing more. The only reason why WiFi is synonymous with the internet is because of the plentiful access to it while out and about.

I agree with you,
there are some very interesting multiplayer in NES, GB and GBC games.
Hopefully it means we will see multiplayer in future VC games, like GBA and SNES

I'm a bit worried about GBA... Nintendo is likely worried that the ambassadors are going to whine that, "You said only WE would get the GBA games because we're ambassadors, and they're mine, all mine! WAAAHHHHHH!!!" lol.

Those ambassadors can whine all they want. Getting them for free should have been enough. It was for me. I actually hope Nintendo gives non-Ambassadors the opportunity at GBA games, as that may give Nintendo incentive to release more, like Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga.

As DiscostewSM said. The difference is called "ad-hoc" (or local) and "infrastructure" which is what is usually what people think when they hear Wi-Fi.

I think it's great that Nintendo is actually injecting a little value into their awful ambassador "rewards," now I can't say they are just simple worthless roms.

That was actually completely unintentional.

really? Thats amazing! *shot*
On topic, i really wanna play rampage 2 player. If you dont know what rampage is, its a total destruction game where you destroy cities for points. Who doesnt love destroyin shiz? The first rampage game was om the NES but im wondering if they will only do multiplayer for nintendo only games?

 

[VMM]

That would be really nice to play Kirby with multiplayer
F-Zero and Mario Kart would be nice too

Very few people with an interest or profession related to IT (or ICT) would consider the term 'WiFi' to be synonymous with the Internet. It's just people who don't know much about the technology that may think so.

Well, bragging rights is always nice on top of free stuff, but I'd certainly prefer more GBA games. Now we've had the GBA games 6 months, I wouldn't see the harm in releasing them. I do think the GBA emulator needs improvement first, though, like working with sleep mode and, perhaps, RTS. Then, multiplayer. ;-)

RTS is good and sleep mode would be outstanding, but both are not that much needed,
I think multiplayer is more important, considering that Kirby Amazing Mirror was made thinking about multiplayer,
and because Mario Kart and F-Zero are games were it's perfectly suitable.

I think it'd be good if 3DS used sleep mode of 3DS, when loading DS games.
It's very important to energy saving, and in my opinion, a necessary step

I think it would be good if Nintendo adjusted the contrast and brightness to the original,
and it would be really good to use some filters, like AA, wich is clearly possible considering 3DS hardware.

 

[TripleSMoon]

Well, bragging rights is always nice

Am I the only person who doesn't give a crap about bragging rights? I mean, I'm not trying to be a jerk or say there's anything wrong with it, but seriously, why's it such a big deal to so many people?

Well, I'm one of those 'ambassadors', and you won't hear that from me. Every single survey I do on club-n includes a request for the GBA VC Kraken to be unleashed on 3DS e-shop. It might be another year or so, but I think it will happen. The thought of GBA online multiplayer is too much to hope for though ... amazing enough it might actually be happening with NES games.

Some people just want the world to burn
I have a ambassador 3DS and I'm hoping for GBA releases on VC.
There are some outstanding games that could be there,
and it will benefit people with ambassadors 3DS more then they think.

More titles, updates, maybe multiplayer, RTS and maybe even more new features.
This is greedyness at it's finest

This might open up a way to bring Pokemon to VC

Good to know. You'd be amazed by how many ambassadors I've heard actually complain about that...

Fixed.

I remembered of something playing Minish Cap.
It'd be very good, and for me a necessary step, the remap button configuration for VC games.

It's so simple, every descent emulator has it,
but none of 3DS's does.

For me, this is the most important feature that should be implemented to VC

Agreed. The more emulator-esque features Nintendo includes in their VC releases, the more people will be convinced to buy the official VC instead of just using free homebrew emulators. I know I would!

Holy crap! I can't wait to see this!

I'm not sure Nintendo would see it the same way, single player gamers outnumber those with brothers, sisters and friends with 3DS consoles and the 3DS's battery life is one of its main criticisms, I could see Nintendo prioritizing GBA emulation in 3DS mode. Not sure about RTS, though, it's kind of like cheating.

Bragging rights are all about pride and vanity. The Ambassador titles show that you're an idiotic loyal 3DS owner who bought the 3DS even though it had very little going for it at the time . But, as I hinted to in my post that you clipped for your quote, I think that releasing the GBA games for all would probably benefit Ambassadors too.

I think it is important the same way.
A game like Mario Kart or F-Zero without multiplayer lose a lot of it's goal.
Kirby were made for Multiplayer.
Tons of NES games have multiplayer.
It's still important.

But like I said in a following post, rather than multiplayer,
it's important to make remap button configuration,
every descent emulator has it.
This would be a huge step to make people choose 3DS VC instead of PC emulation.

RTS is already present in current eShop VC releases, so I don't see why Nintendo would all of a sudden change their mind.
