Gaming With the SNES classic being announced do you guys think VC on Switch will never happen?

[McWhiters9511]

Let Nintendo leech as many sales as they can from these systems then they'll "reveal" Switch VC.

 

[spotanjo3]

I want to get one for the sake of getting hard to purchase games legally, notably the Super FX ones, but I hope the console will be cracked soon after That or Nintendo release them on VC.

*head nod* I am agreeing with you, man.

What makes me excited is this is the first time we ever get officially emulated versions of Star Fox, SF2, and Yoshi's Island, not that crappy GBA port

They would be stupid if they didn't do VC.

It's been confirmed by them, when though, no one knows.

well they said it was a bonus when you paid fr online and since online is gonna be in 2018 only maybe only in 2018 will we get the VC.

Think it will happen but only when the eShop gets a makeover and everything's improved, yada yada. In the state that it is now it's just a mess, yeah, you have three categories to choose from and that's about it (there is the "see all" or whatever it's called).

The current eShop of the Switch is a god damn mess to find a game unless you know what's the game you're looking for, rather than just any. There isn't even a section for demos.

Btw, it would be a dick move if Nintendo kept Star Fox 2 as a Classic SNES-exclusive than release as a VC game but it's Nintendo so that may happen.

I hope the snes classic gets cracked and they dumb the sf2 rom so we can do a vc inject of it on 3ds

Can the 3DS run Super FX full speed though, that's the question

[Deleted-355425]

Of course switch will get vc, the wii did, wii u did and switch will in time. Ninty loves selling you vc over and over lol.

I was half-joking, but yeah, that ROM's gonna get dumped.

its probably gonna be the same eaxact one that we have, same way nintendo released the mother or earthbound translation exactly the same as the leaked.

Though Dylan Cuthbert knows there's a complete version out there, what we've had was like the 99% complete version *shrug*.

They will do VC.. Look at Wii, Wii U and now NS. Yeah, they are not stupid.

Isnt this with all eshops? I hate them all. PS4, 3DS, Switch... as if none of them were properly designed by a UX-designer.

PSN, XBL, WiiU, 3DS are great and very organised but Switch's eShop is just a very messy, amateur store for what it is, a professional long-standing gaming company.

Reggie's gone on record saying the online subscription reward games aren't replacing VC

Good to know.

Joy-Cons
Pro Controller
GameCube
Pokkén
8 Bitdo

Plenty of controllers for everyone to choose from how they'll want to play.

But now that Nintendo has resolved the Super FX chip licensing BS

Nintendo didn't resoulve anything, Argonaut's patent simply ran out. It's the same reasons as to why Piotr Pawłowski can now include LAME in the foobar2000 Free Encoder Pack.
