Waynebrizzle It's all on purpose. It makes it seem more desirable and creates artificial demand. Pretty much. I'm sure they have Top Men that can calculate how many to put in stores from month to month to keep the demand high enough while still making a good amount of money. I don't really care either way right now anyway. I got mine preordered (barely, I'd be singing a different tune if I'd been to the store two hours later). [Kegan] What do people think the chances are of a gamecube VC? An enhanced virtual console would be nice. Something like an actual virtual console, like, a console you and your distant buddies could virtually play on together. Virtual multiplayer, basically. Wouldn't that be neat? I'm sure there's enough power to run some decade old games plus have online. Maybe you could even use the gamepad as a reaction cam to talk to octoG with. That would eat up more processor power, though. What do you think the chances are of some companies opting out of use of the gamepad, when it's not doing anything, to deliver a stronger overall experience? Yeah, I don't see it happening either. That's what I'm hoping for, too. GameCube VC games seems like a no-brainer to me and I'm sure we'll see that roll out before too long. I've been wanting the online multiplayer for VC games forever. I really thought they would do it on the Wii but Nintendo seems to forget online sometimes because in Japan, it's not nearly as big.

Jaycorn Omg Kegan I've wanted old games to be made playable online FOREVER. It would be so great! I think Wayne and I spent like an entire night once trying to get a SNES emulator to allow us to play a game together across countries. Didn't work, obviously. I'm still not 100% sure if it's possible to get an emulator to work that way. Also Gamecube VC would be rad but I have no idea what the chances are. We did. Kirby Superstar. We even downloaded some weird program that didn't really do anything. I have an idea as to another thing we could try, though.

Some games might be nice with an HD remake. A lot of games like Wind Waker or Viewtiful Joe would have aged well, but the up-scaling might still look bad.
Buuut, I also think they'd ask for like 40-50 dollars, which seems unreasonable for a retexturing, especially if it's digital goods. As you may well know, I am one of those folks who thinks digital goods should be at least 10 dollars cheaper. Since, you know, production costs are lower and there is no retail middle man.
I'll probably not get a Wii-U until I have replaced this CRT.
HD games can look so terrible on small screens. My firend had a medium sized screen and this game called "Last revenant" or something, and it was choc-ful-o-text that was impossible to read because the game was made for big screens.
Plus my TV(More accurately called "the TV in my room.") cuts off an inch in every direction, probably so that the screen seemed bigger in the store. It's kinda a piece of s**t, but since I hate TV atleast it hasn't developed burnt out areas.
AAAAALSO: @ Wayne and Jazzy, I once tried to get an emulator that would allow online link cable functionality, so I could play pokemon crystal with friends. It didn't work sad

According to Wikipedia, Nintendo has said that some GCN titles will be available on Wii U eShop. Wikipedia, though.

Gamecube VC games is the rumor going around. Also, Gamestops have demo units in with videos of a ton of games, and a demo of Rayman Legends with co-op play which is a ton of fun if you take a friend along. I might actually end up picking that up now, which is probably what Nintendo was aiming for.
There's a single stage (one of the ones you saw a lot in other live demos) with either simple co-op or one person playing and one person controlling Murphy as well as a single-player rhythm stage to "Black Betty," "covered" humorously. It's very similar to BIT.TRIP RUNNER but a lot less frustrating.
If anyone has any questions, I might be able to answer them but I think these are pretty prevalent at Gamestops.

Did you get to go to one of the demo events in a big city? What games did you get to try? Yeah, I played Heros 101 (only one no one ran toofirst), Chase mario (one mini game on nintendo land) and the super marios thats coming out for the wiiu. Also i got to try the 3ds XL but i like my normal 3ds better then it because the og 3ds is much lighter.
