Well, good for newcomers, but as an oldie, I think I'll wait for "Rockman Collection Works" to be released.
You will fuck up your eyes if you will play the game on a screen so small.
ReplyDelete@Anon 1: All Virtual Console games must be re-worked to work on Wii U. You have to buy them again, but if you own them already you can get a discount.
ReplyDelete@Anon3: Then play on-tv.

ReplyDeleteSo... What about people who have been playing on handhelds?
Interesting then I am not interest to buy them again for Wii U. They want our money again. No thanks! Its annoying!
ReplyDelete*YAWN*
ReplyDeleteWake me up when they add something that hasn't been re-released before... You know, like the next four Game Boy games?
@April 29, 2013 at 6:27 PM Anon: if you did your research, you would know that if you had transferred your wii data over, which includes the shop channel purchase data, you only have to pay $1.00 for the Wii U version of NES games you own, and you only pay $1.50 for the Wii U version of SNES games you own already.
ReplyDeleteNintendo isn't scamming you at all. They just want to make up for the cost of giving a better version with customizable controls as well as a save state.
