Unfair!

[Paulie880]

As you know, the only Virtual Console that has GBA games is the Wii U. WHY NOT 3DS? GBC & GB games but no GBA! Why?!!! Only Ambassador edition! WUT THE &$%#! I mean really! Same goes for SNES! NES but no SNES?! All we get is that 8-Bit crap! Even though I love NES but still! I want to play Super Mario World on the go! The only "64-bit" is the N64 ports! Like The Legend Of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D! Starfox 64 3D! The Legend of Zelda: Ocrina of time 3D! They should make Super Mario 64 3D! *Faceplam* Anyway that's unfair. C'mon Nintendo!

Wii U probably has those types of games because it would make it more exclusive and some people would buy the Wii U in the choice of either Wii U or 3ds . If the 3ds had all of these then it would be useless to get the Wii U cause of the content. Nintendo always has done something like this when it comes to two things ( eg. Pokemon games ) Though I think someday Super Mario Land 64 3d is most likely to come out someday just have to wait......

I know. Nintendo's policy sucks about that (if they were acting better lately, we'd already have that GBA + SNES or even DS VC on 3DS, and GC + N64 VC on Wii U), and I think that, as @Jacknoir12 pointed out, they did it as a marketing argument. Plus, considering how Nintendo screws their customers lately (Yes, the N3DS. I still can't stand it. Next time, I'll wait for the "New" model of their next handheld), you're sure they're probably going to make SNES + GBA VC available for N3DS... only.

So, yes, even though you should probably try to stay calm, I understand why you're complaining; in a fact, I bet that's what Nintendo fans are reproaching to Nintendo right now...

I figured it was just to make the Wii U sell more but by now it strikes me as downright foolish. The Wii U isn't going to sell that much more because of 10 or 20-year old games, and Nintendo shouldn't make gamers who enjoy the 3DS more miss out. No one's going to mind that they said only Ambassador 3DS owners would get GBA games back then.

Nintendo's marketing strategy is what decides which games come out when, and on which platforms. I agree with you all, I'd say this is a pretty bad idiea on Nintendo's part. I mean, Ambassador users are getting epic GBA games on the 3DS, whereas we're stuck with the GBC titles.
I could only imagine the amount of GBA VC sales if Nintendo DOES bring it to the 3DS, but I'm not getting my hopes up :/

I agree. This is totally unfair! Nintendo did this to increase the sale of the wii u but It would be better still even if they made the games more expensive on the 3ds. Or they should have made a data transfer type of thingy in which you can transfer GBA games from the wii u to the 3ds

Btw there are some GBA games on the e shop plus see how they did a remake of Majora's Mask it might be possible for Super Mario 3ds and other more games for N64 and even more consoles.I do hope that they add more GBA games on the e shop though so that the younger generation could learn about the past games of a series.
