Default Handheld Virtual Console

One of the Wii's big selling points is being able to play much older games for less of a price. However, the Nintendo DSi, which packaged the Wii's concept of WiiWare, lacks this feature. Games such as Super Mario Deluxe, Game & Watch Gallery 2, 3, and 4, Pokemon Yellow, and others would all be rather fun to enjoy again, especially now that the DSi no longer supports playing of Gameboy Advance Games, just as the DS removed support of Gameboy Color games.

What do you think? Should older games be offered as well as the "MiniGames" that are currently offered on the DSi's store? Perhaps even some NES, SNES, or N64 games should be offered as they are on the Wii, though for me personally that might be pushing it.

ZamFights Beta should come around Christmas, now.

Spoiler Alert:  ZamFights Progress    

Summary

ZamFights, a Pokemon Mass Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game, developed by Pokezam's Webmaster Freezewarp, continues its development into Alpha 7, where you can trade Pokemon with a global trade station like feature and battle other trainers. Several bugs were also fixed.

Alpha 9, now in development, will feature numerous events and locations to go to, that is up to Fuschia. It will also feature the new, interactive map, numerous minor features, and an altered look.

Alpha 9 should come around Thanksgiving, and Alpha 10, or the public Beta, should come around Christmas.

I actually like the idea of a sixth generation Pokemon Emerald remix; few people think of the possibilities that one game has in full, colorful, barely pixaleted 3-D (in other words, think of a Play Station 2 or Xbox Original). The existing 3D we have with the DS is good, but the next generation of handheld consoles should give much more detail to the game - imagine being able to change your perspective to look into the sky while the stormcloud is slowly stretching across the region once Kyogre and Groudon have both been awoken. Imagine seeing the sky tower, and a green tail, to the left, and mirages to the right. For that matter, think of Mirage Island!

There are so many other moments for which we could experience in perspective-3D Pokemon Emerald; the battle frontier is one example, but just seeing the sun rise and set as the time passes in Dewford city would be awesome. Of course, my dreams may be more than one generation away; are there any Wii games that even would make this real?

I think adding older games on newer platforms with better graphics might be cool.

I'm thinking you should buy a game boy.





Have you seen the prices on those things? They're as low as... Paris Hilton!

I think the same thing. It would be interesting to see older games on newer platforms with better graphics.

Lately I've been using VisualBoyAdvance and getting ROMs.




Most stable emulator I've ever seen in my life.

I know when I first tried it out I was amazed with the stability of it as well. However, the first I use (due to it being compatible with WINE), 1.6, does not render some elements perfectly. Mario and Luigi RPG comes to mind.

Emerald and Sapphire do not work on the Windows version. I could just be doing something wrong, though.

In what way don't they work? Does Windows show an error, is the screen completely white, is there an error listed in the game, or what? The latter two issues are completely fixable, as with many others. Anyway, what is the error, I probably can help.
