I prefer pixelation over blur
Blurring looks awful in my opinion just hurts my eyes :\

Well, as long as the game pad looks decent enough

Lolwut? Low-res games look like s**t on anything above 480p.

you must be using the wrong tv they look stunning on my panasonic VIErA TH-P65VT20A 65" but than again everything does on this baby

bilinear filter = blur
hq2x, hq4x = no blur

I like the hq#x filters but just simple blurring (bilinear filter) I don't like
I'd doubt nintendo would ever put hq filters on though

Really I don't see it as "forced rebuying" of your games. Stop being so dramatic people. You can still buy a DS or a 3DS to play your DS games, it's just another option. I don't see N64 owners crying about rebuying Super Mario 64 or hell I don't see any of you people crying about paying $60 for a "HD remake" of Wind Waker that is basically just Wind Waker with minor adjustments. And you paid $60 for it.

I just think it's kinda a bland idea compared to just offering digitally distributed DS games on the 3DS or Gamecube games on the Wii U. This is neat at most, unexciting at worst.

the VC system is nice, so new people can play, the classic games, that they never had a chance to play

there are many game on DS (and other systems), that can are classic games, that cost over $60, used, and be hard to find, for a real copy of that game
and the VC system let you get the game for $10 or less right for the eshop

it not a bad thing

also
maybe Nintendo will see how will the DS game sell on the WiiU, and might bring top seller to the 3ds at some point

The problem is knowing Nintendo's track record one game will be released every 6 months.

Interesting, I didn't expect this. Since the 3DS already plays DS games one would think this would take away some potential profit.
Those who already have a DS/3DS probably won't get the Wii U just to play their DS games on it, while those who already have a Wii U will now be less inclined to get a DS/3DS.

What about those that have all 3

Well, now you have even more choices of how to play/buy.

For the average gamefaqs user, by the time you bought 4 games on vc, you couldve probably gotten a used lite+flashcard anyways. Expecting a just a 10 $ price point is kinda extremely optimistic, isnt it?

Student budgets ruin everything One of these days I'm getting a new TV with the money I make from my old-ish college-budget TV Snes games look pretty good on the VC....never mind

You could just force Wii U on 480p and use XRGB-Mini. Doesn't require new TV and this upscaler beats pretty much all TV's upscaling capability.

Give me this one and I'm good.

Don't have money for those, need a job before I can buy such a device. And besides, 480p on the Wii U seems kinda strange to me when I have it on HDMI I'd use my Wii if I wanted 480p

 

[chavosaur]

I wonder if they'll wait a year and then out really bad DS games on Club Nintendo for Wii u

 

[iceypathx]

This is good, a really good idea from Nintendo. Just a joke; what's next? The next Wii console emulating 3DS games! HAHAAHA - ok not funny

You mean they don't release crappy games on the VC already?
