HEY GUYS; WE LIKE AREN'T MAKING COPIES OF METROID FUSION ANYMORE RITE? THAT MEANS THAT WE AREN'T MAKING A PROFIT ANYMORE RIGHT?

LET'S LIKE

REPACKAGE THE GAME, WITH AN EMULATOR AND SELL IT FOR MORE MONEY WITH MAXIUMUM OVERSELLVALUE AND SUE PEOPLE WHO TRY TO DOWNLOAD ROMS, KNABBING US OF OUR OTHERWISE NONEXISTENT PROFITS ANYWAYS


also this makes up for the 80 dollars, totally


in other news, apparently 3ds's only costed 101 dollars to make. Damn what kind of profit margins were they expecting

Well when you think of it, they usually sell NES games on the VC for 5 bucks (on the Wii anyway), so 10 free NES games, that's already 50 dollars. SNES games are worth 8 bucks, so I don't know how much GBA games would be if they ever do make them public, but say they make them only 5 bucks for some reason. That's another 50, so it does sorta make up for the 80 extra dollars we paid when you look at it from that perspective.

Yeah, but honestly, is there anyone of you who HASN'T emulated SMB?
I mean, there sure are a few who buy it on VC to "own" it, but I wouldn't pay for SMB anymore, especially when there is Super Mario Bros. Crossover.
The GBA games may be a different story since they are "only" two generations old.

Now for something different: You STILL aren't allowed to "sync" your VC purchases between Wii and 3DS, or have they changed that by now?
Because I would, if I owned a 3DS and a Wii (I owned the latter until it broke), not really feel like buying a game twice.

I mean, do you have to buy Portal 2 for PS3, PC and the Mac?

This maybe was nessacery back in the day when downloadable games were still scifi, but now, we should be able to sync our game ownership between platforms. I can see why the PSN, XBLA and Wii Shop aren't sync'd, but at least between Wii and 3DS, one should be able to do so.

Am I the only one who doesn't feel the same enjoyment out of emulating games that I pirate? I downloaded SMW once to emulate it, barely played it, yet I'll play it on my SNES without a problem. Speaking of which, I need to transfer my money to my debit card some time and find a Super Smash TV and Earthbound (and possibly Gameboy player thing with a Pokemon cart) on eBay.

And there's an option called "System Transfer". I think this does it, but I haven't tried since I never bought anything from the DSi Shop.

FINALLY got Super Smash Bros. Brawl 2 days ago. Somebody needs to hide my Wii cause I'm playing it WAYYYYY too much. If i don't get a 3ds next year, I'll just sell my Gamecube and keep playing Brawl. How much are Gamecube's worth without the controllers, cause i'd like to keep mine for Brawl. I think they're like $20.

Would my old DS Lite be relevant?

Maybe that's it. It could be a morality thing though. I'm not too sure.

You realize a copy of Earthbound will run you well over $100, right? That's one of the few games I have no quarrels with emulating, just because I've come to grips with the fact that I'll likely never own it.

Get it quickly before the price cut. 20 games is well worth it.

Wait, did the price cut already happen?
