Would require 3ds emulation -- would/could never happen.
Would've been cool though.
Even though that comment is only from Katsuhiro Harada time with the wii u, it still isn't that slow. Gees.slowish WiiU cpu.
once homebrew come to the wii u (more than likely a long time if like the 3ds)
there wiil be a nds emulater like the wii
I'm sorry, but it is the Game Boy Player. Why are people calling it that?Never stopped the Gamecube Player.
Technicalities included, do you think it is possible by just filling up the pixels?Technicalities aside, I can see how DS games could be played like this via Virtual Console, but I doubt Nintendo would shoot themselves in the foot with the 3DS.
I firmly believe that Nintendo, being in posession of all 3DS development-related resources would be entirely capable of creating a 3DS emulator on the current WiiU hardware - despite popular opinion, the 3DS isn't *that* strong specs-wise - it's somewhere between a Gamecube and a Wii. They won't do it though, as they're actively selling 3DS hardware.Technicalities included, do you think it is possible by just filling up the pixels?
If the games were to be processed externally and simply displayed on the WiiU, there is no external slot to connect a so-called "Player". Perhaps via a serial cable and a 3DS, but I doubt it - where would you connect it on the 3DS itself? To the cartridge slot? Even if it did processing externally for the WiiU instead of using emulation, that's a very crude solution - too "Nintendon't" if you ask me.
The 3DS doesn't have a slot it could use though, as far as I know, the one it has is merely for the charger, like the DS's, DS Lite's, DSi's and DSi XL's slots.Play your 3DS on-the-go, bring it home, put it on the table in standby. Wireless link with the Wii U, and play your 3DS/DS games on the TV, with the Wii U gamepad working as the bottom touch-screen.
