    We really took what we had for granted. It’s a shame it’s gone.

      If you get an eshop card you can still make purchase through the end of August. I'm probably gonna buy the metroid gba titles though 🤦‍♂️

    Wow I am so impressed with the content and quality of your videos! I was shocked to see the subscriber count because it’s incredibly obvious how much time and thought goes into making these vids. I’m so glad I’m found this channel regardless and I would be shocked if there aren’t more people like me, starting to find your channel and immediately subscribing! Keep up the great work and thank you for this nostalgia trip!

    as somebody with a hacked original-model 3DS I can say that Mario Kart: Super Circuit and Pokémon FireRed Rom Hacks work perfectly using the 3DS's built-in GBA emulator.

    It's really a shame that the Wii U Virtual Console never got games from the Sega Genesis, Master System or Neo Geo.
    The 3DS VC got The Mysterious Caatle of Murasame, which hasn't been re-released on NSO.

    I was actually thinking about the virtual console last night as I played it more than I've used switch online because I could buy games vs just having access to them. Keeping in mind I have most of the games I care about on origi al hardware as well from when they came out... Guess that makes me old, oh well.

      never gonna happen, because people will pay monthly for NSO. they also get to release less games while making more money. so yea never everrrrrr gonna happen

    i absolutely loved the VC i spent hundreds of dollars buying games on the WII VC... but when i figured out how easy it was to hack a wii, and put every single NES, GB/GBA, and SNES game ever made on my hacked wii, i kinda felt dumb for spending those hundreds of dollars. Also i think thats another reason we will never see VC ever again, because pirates.. and also people will pay money monthly to be able to play while Nintendo releases less games.

      YES, modding a wii is the best thing I've ever done. That's how I play a lot of my gamecube games nowadays because its much more seamless that way

    Virtual console was great. You could get RECCA for $10 instead of $100+. Sure $10 may sound overpriced for a NES game, but it's the best NES game. Unless you don't like hard games. Actually if you are really, really good at SHMUPS you could beat it in well under an hour, but that's true for most good SHMUPS anyway.

    It had Nintendo syndrome, and that's why it died
    Many people hated it and complained about it while it was around, saying it was the worst thing ever
    Then new thing comes to replace old thing, they hate new thing, praise old thing, forget all the things they hated about old thing, but now old thing has been fully disregarded by Nintendo, and it's too late to save old thing

    I actually watched this one yesterday but didn't think about this til now. I love the Wii u and the virtual console on it.
    Is it just me or are all the games really dark, like they have a filter? I swear they're darker than original hardware and also Switch online 🤔
    I specifically mean the wii u VC games, my 2ds doesn't have that issue

    • @BoringBrandon1
      @BoringBrandon1  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Yes! Many of the N64 games on the Wii U virtual console had a dark filter on them

    The current switch virtual console should be considered a federal crime compared to the wii and wii u's.
