What if they bring back the Pokemon Snap kiosks that would allow us to print stickers of our favorite in-game shots?

That's enough incentive for me to buy a Project Revolution.

Isn't there, like, a language limit or something? I always thought the "F" word was too "bad" or something, especially in huge font...

Of course, I just repeated it, so....

Anyway, yay for the Virtual Console. Worth the purchase alone...

if they were free yea, it might be worth the purchase alone. but not having to pay for each game to download... thats not worth the purchase at all when you can already get em all free on the computer.


what will make the NINTENDOGO! worth the purchase is the NINTENDOGO! intself.


i really hope thats the name... i love saying that word now...






NINTENDOGO!!!!

The issue with being able to get them already is.. the mass population doesn't know about it or how to obtain ROMs.

So for many people it will be a selling point even if not for people on this forum.

On that note, it doesn't seem like the deal with Sega and Hudson is exclusive. As I believe that, Sega is working with MS on the XBLA.

On that same note, much like XBLA, small developers will be able to sell their games over the virtual console.

No, it looks like there's no * command (which basically means, in regular expression, that "this character repeats a finite amount of times. I.E., all four letters.)

doesnt matter if they know how to get them or not, the fact is they are out there and always have been. that fact doesnt change just because of peoples ignorance.

but thats totally not the point. point is that being able to do it to me is just not at all worth the purchase all by itself... its like i didnt know that i could get the internet on laptops or pda's, so getting the internet on the psp was its main selling point and worth the purchase all by itself. (which is not the case because there are cheaper ways if that was the main point)

its a nice extra feature, to the main console (which is what should and will be the main selling point)

also i dont think nintendo will be trying to market this as a main selling point, if they did, i think they'd be living in the past a little too much. I think it'll be marketed along the same lines of xbox lives arcade. probably a little more tho.

People will be more familiar with Ninty's virtual console thing because they want to play the past games also (if they dont know how to for PC, etc..) and my guess is right on the box of each Rev/Nintendogo sold, it will have some snazzy thing saying "Play all your classic and favorite Nintendo games of the past!"

yea i think it'll be on the box, and pointed out in thier interviews, and commercials, but after they list what the console is really all about.

this console is going to be about its new games, its control methods, its innovation. Its not going to be 'all' about its ability to play old games that have been out for a long time. thats a good, nice, extra feature that will be enjoyed. But not what the console is all about.

I didnt mean to refer to it as the only way they will market the Rev, I'm just saying thats going to be one of the main highlighted things of what hte console can do.
