  • New 3D Mario, Mario Kart and Smash bros in playable form this E3
  • New Zelda game for the Wii U in development. New title won't have a linear storyline like the previous games for a more open and immersive experience

That SMT x FE title interests me greatly. That is a very very interesting combo. (a SMT game with perma character death sounds fucking terrifying)
But actually all of those titles interest me. Slightly iffy about the yoshi game...I don't see the appeal of the yarn games, I think they just look silly and really not appealing. Buuut it's yoshi so i'll probably enjoy it.

This is certainly better than the vague hints and shoulder-shrugging I was expecting. I guess this leaves Nintendo two for two when it comes to their Directs.

That said, this is a whole lot to reveal so early in the year - How many announcements are they going to have left for later? For E3?

I say who cares. If they drop out of E3 and instead keep doing these directs, they'll be saving money and information will be coming to us faster. Hell even if their E3 is a flop, they showed a lot here. I mean we have what Mario Kart 8, New 3D Mario game, Smash Bros and maybe (though I doubt it) actual screens and shit of the new Zelda. Then they have 3DS to talk about too... I don't know, I think they'll be good for E3.

I suppose they really are sticking to their word about making those 10 GBA titles exclusive to 3DS Ambassadors.

I don't know, I have the feeling a unified system is coming. A unified miiverse and a unified eShop who of course has its exclusives but shares some VC titles like the GBA or NES games. I also have the feeling a firmware update will allow 3DS users to use the 3DS as second gamepad. Of course this is just speculation on my end...

But GBA games are going to look terrible on the Wii U GamePad :/

Why?

There was a gameboy player on the GC and they looked just fine, like playing SNES games.

they can make those gba game exclusive to ambassadors and still make new vc's for purchase...

They could yeah, but didn't they say they have no plans to release them or GBA games outside of ambassador? Other VC's sure, I'd like a gameboy color on the 3DS.

    It could get banned from PSN but you can change your ID I think?
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    also gonna install twilight menu in my r4 flashcard
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    One thing that just occurred to me.... The sound on the 2600 sucked less back then the harsh sound we hear now is from infinitely better speakers we have now, back when the 2600 was new speakers produced a almost muffled sound, like CRTs made old graphics look slightly better.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way

    It's old but it's the best firmware out for DS stuff
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    it says it only works for the original R4, R4i Gold (r4ids.cn), R4iDSN (r4idsn.com) and Acekard R.P.G.

    Just give it a try, but honestly if you have a 3DS you can play DS games without a card just off the internal SD card
