Fair enough :P that would be pretty dickish... Then again, we have emulated amiibos being withheld from the community

I take it the emulated amiibos are being withheld because that will ultimately be used for counterfeiting amiibos *sighs*. People are scumbags that do that sort of thing. I expect lots of counterfeits to pop up on places like ebay, amazon etc within the next year or so when they refine the emulation to the point where they can make their own cheap amiibos and sell them as being the real deal......

If they released how their doing the emulation, it would eliminate the market for counterfeits, because anybody could emulate it. The fact that their withholding that info leads me to believe they're doing it for commercial (and illegal) gain......

If Nintendo keeps up its practice of using them as a paywall so the true cost of a game like MP10 is $200 I am sorta fine with it. I guess.

Yeeaaaaaaaah, that post probably didn't need to exist...

If you're really that desperate to get the game cheap, get it used... And even if you did buy it new, it's worth every penny (that's a personal opinion, but regardless it's still VERY highly rated game. If they're going to do some sort of "Player's Choice" thing for Wii U games, MK8 will most likely be on that list of games)

Or VirtualBox. Virtual Machines are pretty handy, if not pretty slow. I could see a VM working on the Wii U, though
Does the Wii U even have that kind of processing power? My PC has better specs than the Wii U and running VM's are slow (Windows XP runs smoothly though). But the only thing that the Wii U has that is faster than my pc is it's CPU so there's still hope.

If macs can do it, so can the Wii U.
