It was surprised yonks ago by Mario Kart 8
The only one in the series I haven't properly played are the SNES and GBA ones, always found Mode7 driving strange. MK8 though... the only fault that game has is Nintendo really should have sold a new course every year. It's full of content but the gameplay is so perfect that all it needs is additional stuff.
Come to think of it that multiplayer battle mode was awful!
They really want $300 for a Wii U??
Some tracks have transferred over! Ok there aren't many, but also there have been some outstanding tracks in the games between 64 and Mario Kart 8 that are included. My fave track in 8 is a remake of the N64 Rainbow Road track, I've literally played it for hours just shaving off milliseconds from my time.I played Mario Kart versions after MK64 and always thought the 64 tracks were simply wonderful, with great complimentary music. Maybe it's sentimental. I was always aggravated, they did not carry those tracks forward in later versions of the games. Last night I took a couple of turns around the track and was reminded about how hard this game is on my thumb pressing the acceleration button. Plus I need new controllers with proper tension on the joysticks.
Yes, it's their current latest console. They're much cheaper if you shop around. The Virtual Console is just a name for buying older games on newer platforms, basically just a grouping name on their store. I don't think anyone else adds a moniker for older games... it's very "Nintendo" alright!Now I just have to figure out what the Wii U Virtual Consol is.

There's a new one out next year but we don't know much about it, but with previous Nintendo machines if you owned a Virtual Console game on one platform and they released a new one, then you'd pay a small upgrade fee. It's usually a £1-2 here.
Now I just have to figure out what the Wii U Virtual Consol is.
The Wii U's being advertised here run $300-400 new, which might be due to lack of availability- not sure. I love that racing, but doubt I'll pay $300 for it, instead I'd get a PS4 or XB1 and keep my fond memories.
It's Nintendos next console. It's a tablet-looking central device that has two slots on the sides for putting controllers. It also comes with a dock that charges the unit and lets you play games with more GPU speed due to some cooling technique. So it's both a home console and a portable. It's only got a single screen so Wii U and 3DS games are off the table, but Virtual Console (their emulated older games) have the potential to transfer over - if its anything like the Wii U they'll charge a small fee if you already own the title.
With the hardware that's inside the NES Classic they could have done an all-in-one UberNintendo console, with downloadable games. It's stronger than the 3DS, and that can emulate N64.
Technically any off-screen game would work fine but do you think they're going to let you redownload that game free of charge? These are the same folks that charge a Wii to Wii U upgrade fee for VC games. Who knows! (except for Nintendo execs)
Does Apple NOT have the capacity to ramp up more facilities for iPhones and Airpods? They literally have BILLIONS in the bank.The last number I read was Nintendo moved 200K units. My first thought was, wow, Apple moves that in an hour
I really wanted one for myself, being that the NES is the only console I never owned (not counting the consoles prior to the NES). I'm no longer interested due to the lack of supply.
Big difference there between Apple and Nintendo as far as dollar amount. Let's say Nintendo built that thing for nothing, and assume they doubled the unit sold since I read that article. That's $24M. Pocket change for company of that size. Apple makes tens of billions of dollars. Whole lot of hype for the relative chump change, which doesn't seem to make too much sense if that's the case.Does Apple NOT have the capacity to ramp up more facilities for iPhones and Airpods?

Nah.. I believe what they and other companies who make "hot products" do is between making too much vs. too little, they're better off making too little of them. That way, they don't get stuck with inventory they can't sell, and they get to say "we sold out of that like hotcakes!". Works for them concerning multiple perspectives.
Me too and the mini Super NES that Nintendo plans to make. I just hate the short controllers for this. But for $60 and 30 games? Why the heck not? It is Nintendo making honest bucks. I can always just emulate it on my computer and even used ROMs on my iPod touch, PSP, and laptops before. But why not help Nintendo out in the hardware business?I just want one of the things
works flawlessly - even Mario Lost Levels that runs as a Famicom Disk is a-okay.
Nope to all of that!
What is the simpler way ?Saw an article on the NES Mini being hacked over on Eurogamer. So, I thought I'd give it a go! There's a really complex method that involves a load of apps and jumping through hoops, and there's another much simpler one that works much better. I was 1/4 into the complex one before I heard about the other so that was an hour wasted! But yeah, it's done! I modded my NES Mini!
Then I spent the rest of the evening testing it out
