Title: Nintendo 3DS Virtual Console
Post by: Tattletale1 on December 30, 2010, 09:46:54 PM
The Nintendo 3DS has a Virtual Console containing games from the Gameboy & GB Color, and a few Classic Games (Puzzle Leage, Pac Man, Ms. Pac Man, Panel de Pon, Sonic Advanced)

Which ones are your favorites? Name any one, (or more,) and why you want it so badly.  Only name Gameboy, GB Color, GBA, Super NES, or Sega Gamegear

Donkey Kong Country for GBC! It's the only version of DKC I do not own - I got the original cartridge for SNES (but SNES is pretty reluctant to work nowadays), the Gameboy Advance version, and the Virtual Console version (see SNES).

I mean, even if it's seen as the weak link of the ports, I could care less. How about the Donkey Kong Land series too?

Aside from that, the Pokemon Yellow & Crystal versions would be nice. And I'd like to see that Metal Gear game as well O_o.

It would be interesting if Wi-Fi was implemented into RGB/Y (though the original game engine itself remained unchanged), it could include random Wi-Fi and friend battles. It would be great to see a revival of the Generation I meta-game. Go Mewtwo.

Plus, it would be a good application for Generation I glitch battles assuming that the Ditto glitch, Old Man glitch etc. aren't removed from the game. Go 3trainerpoké!  :)

I think it would be nice to include the original Pokemon Yellow on Virtual Console, not Changing any stats, except maybe adding a few minor changes, (Shiny Sprites, Johto Pokemon tradable from downloadable Crystal Version, G/S style item bag, Wi-fi Mystery gift, Wi-Fi Trades, & Random Online battles acsessed via Indigo Plateau, and all Trainers can be rebattled (except Team Rocket) after beating the Elite Four, a few with more Powerful Pokemon than before, and possibly a battle with Professor Oak in place of Viridian Gym Leader Post-Elite Four, and Rocket's lesser known "CHEIF SCIENTEST would like to battle" at the Game Corner Management building, using Pokemon that Giovanni used.  "Pikachu's Surf minigame" or "Pokemon Mini" would replace slot machines at Rocket Game Corner, in the U.S. versions of the game.

Wait, do you mean to not have them update to the modern game standards like: Special broken up into Special Defense and Special Attack; Moves switched over to nature-based categories instead of type-based; etc?

If so, it may make it incompatible with 5th Gen games.

That may be difficult, since the games came with specific hardware built in to detect the rotation of the GBA. Now, if that hardware was built into the 3DS - that would be cool.
Title: Re: Nintendo 3DS Virtual Console

The 3DS comes with built in accelerometers, so those could be use to determine orientation (and thus tilt).

No, only update a few things to Gen II Standards, (colorizing, item bag, wirless trading, Shiny Sprites-pink butterfree, Wi-Fi (Jp. Crystal battle/Mystery gift features acsessed through main menu)

I apologize, but i don't see how updating it to an out-of-date standards would be helpful. Although, if the 3DS VC is like the Wii VC, then it would make sense.

It is essensially the same as Wii virtual console, except multiplayer is reworked for a wireless system instead of a link cable, Classic Games would include NES for GBA, and maybe (but likely not right away, if at all) other landmark GBA games like Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga, and Tilt function games like Warioware Twisted, and Pokemon Pinball R/S would appear as GBA Virtual console,

The artwork isn't bad, it's just archaic and obsolete.

I'm starting to get a bit doubtful about GBA being readily available, they might wait to release it or you might have to buy an add on. The reason being is that the 3DS might not be able to hold the games since they might be too big, like the GCN for the Wii.

Hmm... that might be a good point. GBC games are usually only like, 1MB in size (that's what I noticed when I just glanced at the couple of Pokemon ROMs I have, there might be bigger ones), while the GBA is usually 16MB (with a max of 32).

That still doesn't seem like it's much of a problem at all for modern hard drives, though.

...also X games and Olypmic Gold Medalist Shaun White says his favorite character in the N64 version of Super Smash Bros. is "Zelda" obviously he hasn't played Zelda games, or the other two Smash Bros. Games, or he'd know Zelda was the princess that the character rescued, and not Link.
Quote
Shaun White's top 5 Favorite Characters
1. King Koopa; He's Huge, they even made movies about him.
2. Donkey Kong; He throws Barrels you have to jump over, it's ridiculous, but we keep playing it.
3. Mario "The last game I remember playing was a Mario one, the first one.
4. Zelda "You remember Smash Bros., the N64 game.  He was my go-to-guy in that game."
5. Prince of Persia

I already have Balloon Kid within ~3 feet of me right now  :), though there was an enhanced version of it named ?????????? (Balloon Fight GB) which was only released in Japan (2000). The original Balloon Kid was never released in Japan and only in North America and Europe.  Balloon Kid's release (1990/1991) was before that of the Game Boy Color's so it used one of the built in default color palettes and frankly the colors weren't too good (red water in Balloon Trip mode for example). Also, Balloon Kid wasn't a game that saved, so the top Balloon Trip score resets to 25,000 every time you soft reset or turn the game off and if you wanted to re-play a particular stage you would have to go through the whole game again. Balloon Fight GB had a world map to pick through the stages, though I suppose it doesn't matter much because the game itself is really short.

Nevertheless, its a shame that we didn't get the enhanced version. There was also a slightly bizarre special edition of our Balloon Kid but only released in Japan, called Hello Kitty World for the Famicom in 1992 which substituted Balloon Fight GB which didn't come until eight years later .

Thing is, it's also Pokemon. Which is a game series that regularly remakes old games (maybe two times isn't "regularly", okay, but tell me with a straight face you don't see them doing it again in the future?). Why would they just do updating to include Johto Pokemon and Wi-Fi and sell the game for $5? That's completely unlike Pokemon. If they're going to revamp it, they're gonna go the extra mile to do so.

I can see them releasing the original (with fixed glitches, of course, as sad as I am to admit that) for $5 (or something) on the VC but I don't see them giving the game random bonus features like that.

Now I wonder how they would do the whole link cable thing though. You gotta catch em all somehow. :P I could see them modifying the link cable system to work with wireless or something but not anything more than that.

What about Mew, Wi-Fi would be the best way for a Mew Event, nobody's going to go crazy over a Gamestop or Toys R us TRADE event for a VC game,
Wi-fI BATTLES, Trades, a& Mystery Gift is all I can see Them adding, exept for Togepi as Pokemon #000 in Kanto Pokedex as a second event Pokemon, and Gen II organization for Item bag, it's nearly impossible to carry half the TMs with you, I always stored them in a PC, which cannot hold every TM, Evolution Stones, and Vitamins, so maybe they could extend how many Items can be carried at a Time, instead of updating it to Gold/Silver standards, also, Colorize Kanto how it was in Gold/Silver

that's sad to here. If it is true, i wouldn't want to play a VC pokemon game. It'd be the same as playing on the Computer. Single player only, not trades or linked battles.

Thing is, it's also Pokemon. Which is a game series that regularly remakes old games (maybe two times isn't "regularly", okay, but tell me with a straight face you don't see them doing it again in the future?). Why would they just do updating to include Johto Pokemon and Wi-Fi and sell the game for $5? That's completely unlike Pokemon. If they're going to revamp it, they're gonna go the extra mile to do so.

I can see them releasing the original (with fixed glitches, of course, as sad as I am to admit that) for $5 (or something) on the VC but I don't see them giving the game random bonus features like that.

Now I wonder how they would do the whole link cable thing though. You gotta catch em all somehow. :P I could see them modifying the link cable system to work with wireless or something but not anything more than that.

What about Mew, Wi-Fi would be the best way for a Mew Event, nobody's going to go crazy over a Gamestop or Toys R us TRADE event for a VC game,
Wi-fI BATTLES, Trades, a& Mystery Gift is all I can see Them adding, exept for Togepi as Pokemon #000 in Kanto Pokedex as a second event Pokemon, and Gen II organization for Item bag, it's nearly impossible to carry half the TMs with you, I always stored them in a PC, which cannot hold every TM, Evolution Stones, and Vitamins, so maybe they could extend how many Items can be carried at a Time, instead of updating it to Gold/Silver standards, also, Colorize Kanto how it was in Gold/Silver
But what if you don't want them to change anything? The Virtual Console is supposed to be you playing the games as they were originally, if they change it, it won't be the same.

This is true. However, if it was exactly the same, i might not buy it, since i may already have the game.

I was only saying that in a Yellow Re-Release, the only things they should alter are...

- multiplayer is now wireless, using same gameplay & graphics

- colorizing Kanto to Gold/Silver Palette

- Expanding PC & bag Storage Capacity for items, & allowing 5 more Pokemon per PC box.

- Mystery Gift unlocked by beating the Elite Four, allowing the elusive Mew, plus Surfing Pikachu to be downloaded, at game menu, directly to PC

- Game Corner has Pokemon Mini or Pikachu Surf, replacing slots in European & possibly American versions....   (most likely)...
I hope for each Machine to have a different Pokemon Mini


...Unfortionately they might change Gambler's title in all versions except Quebec French, and possibly Austrailia as well...

- Ghost type Pokemon now Immune to Ground type attcks (Yellow uses a different type effectiveness chart anyway, & makes Gastly & Haunter more effective)

- Wi-Fi battles at Indigo Plateau,
weakening the boredom factor of no trainers to battle anywhere else after defeating them (not Wi-Fi trades)

- keep any glitches that will not cause game/system to corrupt data, (making a safe glitch city feature that allows you to battle Trainers with randomized Teams with Randomized movesets at high levels (even "illeagal" movesets)

The only major change: adding Togepi (and it's voice clip from SSBMelee) as an event Pokemon of sort, #000 in Kanto Pokedex, (not National, and of course it won't evolve) possibly as an Easter Egg (literally) found on the ground, which will read as Mysterious Egg, and will hatch if taken to Cinnbar Lab to be studied, as if it were a Fossil Pokemon. "It Hatched The Egg did! Study the Eggshells must I!  Here Go You!  No room you have?  Come Later you shall..."

No more Pokemon VC unless we're talking about spinoffs... Okay?
Pokemon Pinball
Pokemon TCG
Pokemon Puzzle Leauge
Pokemon Mini colection, $1.50
Game Corner & Minigame Colection,

Those last two might not make it...

Either Way, the Pokemon Puzzle game would be a great addition. It/They were great game(s).

Wait, I just realized TETRIS IS NOT ON THE POLL.

IF THEY DON'T RELEASE THE GAME BOY VERSION OF TETRIS, I WILL GO AND PUNCH SATORU IWATA IN THE FACE.

Then ask for his autograph.

I second that, the earlier Tetris games in general tended to be the most plainest IMO.  I'm not a 'hardcore Tetris fan' but I never really enjoyed Tetris DS for instance as much as the original Tetris (Game Boy) or Tetris DX. The introduction of the 'easy spin' mechanic as early as 2001 in Tetris Worlds made it so that downwards velocity on a Tetromino can be interrupted if it is delayed by rotating it. Level 20 in Tetris DS seemed relatively easier because of this mechanic, along with the 'hold' feature and six Tetromino preview as opposed to just 1.

You just made me feel the urge to play Tetris on the Game Boy right now, thanks!  :) [I don't know whether to get the announced Tetris 3DS or not].

I put Tetris 360 on the Poll, along with GB Tetris in one selection,
Tetris 360 was like Game & Watch, except larger, and the only controls were tilt, and a rotate button, you could also place the blocks on any one of the four corners of the stage, while blocks dropped from a box in the center, (which you have to avoid)

Why the heck is everyone talking about Game Boy Advance games? Nintendo never announced anything related to the Game Boy Advance at all! Not yet, at least, since the possibility of it still open for the future, I suppose. However, initially, there is no Game Boy Advances games whatsoever. Nintendo only confirmed original Game Boy and Game Boy Color games, and possibly other certain "classic titles remastered in 3D", which is still an obscure reference for the time being, but it should likely reference a selection of Nintendo Entertainment System games. I doubt Nintendo would actually release all NES titles as on the Wii Virtual Console, since these titles would technically be new with their 3D visuals and whatnot.

FRLG's been confirmed for 3DS VC, actually. :O

No, it was not.

Found it (http://vgtribune.com/nintendo-3ds-to-contain-portable-virtual-console/)!

It makes sense, too. Remaking a remake would be sorta stupid. (Also hey Golden Sun's on there too.)

Ahem. That source you linked to, little girl, is not credible at all! Not to mention out-dated at the time you posted it as well. The rest of you, please discredit that link. If that bit of news was true, it would have existed elsewhere as well.

You know? I cannot believe all of you are thinking about Game Boy Advance titles under the influence of wishful thinking, especially when Game Gear games are confirmed to be available on the Nintendo 3DS Virtual Console from the start! Sega even announced a handful of initial up-coming Game Gear titles (http://3ds.nintendolife.com/news/2011/03/sega_names_first_game_gear_games_for_3ds_virtual_console)! I should also note that TurboGrafx-16 is also confirmed for the Virtual Console, but it's not much of a big deal since we already have it on the Wii Virtual Console anyway.

You don't need to be mean.

Anyway, I'd love to see GBA games on the Virtual Console regardless. I think it's a huge possibility anyway, since you can't play them on the 3DS. Or DSi, anyway. I'm kind of confused why Sega games would be on it, though, any explanation?

Don't forget that Master System games are available on the Wii's Virtual Console as well! I find it surprising they did not add Sega Saturn games yet. I mean, it is possible if Nintendo 64 games are being offered, although I'm not sure if Sega released enough titles for the Saturn during its lifetime. Frankly, there are some Saturn titles I wish they would legitimately return, such as Sonic R!

By the way, did anyone here know that Game Gear games are already being offered via the Wii Virtual Console in Japan!?

Gosh, I cannot wait for officially announced titles for the Nintendo 3DS Virtual Console! The month of May will be here soon enough!

I would like to see some Saturn game as well... although, i never played any of them. I do believe that SEGA considers the Saturn a "Dark Chapter" in it's history.

I wasn't aware that there were Game Gear games. Thank you for informing me of this.

Do you have any information on any specific games?
