[Wii] Virtual Console & WiiWare Games - Doing wonders for illegal emulation since 2007

Yeah if you order adapters and N64 controllers and fiddle with plugins to the point of setting it up so it'll run accurately NO.

My brother got hooked up with his Wii last week, and he bought Mario Kart yesterday. Supposedly it's awesome fun with friends. You know, like how it was on the N64 and all.

How ya doing, buddy?

Not really sure why, but playing N64 games with generic-brand USB controllers isn't really the most appealing thing in the world.

Just pay for the damn game.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

So I'm on the high horse and everyone else is bitching about how it's NOT HARD to JUST FIND SOME USB GAMEPADS because GOD IT'S EASY AND IT'S FREE and WHY DO YOU HAVE TO BE SO PICKY JUST USE AN EMULATOR. I on the other hand am merely suggesting that it's worth it more to take the legit route and playing the game in the way it's intended with minimum hassle, because believe it or not, it's entirely possible to do that and enjoy it too.

Just because it's entirely possible to play it with an emu doesn't mean it's anywhere near as enjoyable, much less authentic. There's something very noncasual about having a friend round for a quick game of MK, forcing an unrecognisable controller into his mitts and parking him in front of my PC.

Go overreact somewhere else.

Most amazing jew boots

Already own both. Only point I'm trying to make here is that playing it on a console is a whole lot better than playing it huddled around a computer.

And you're tossing profanities left and right and telling people they're dicks. Ho-hum.

Wow, I'm overreacting?

Judging from the fact that you're bitching about arguing about people having an argument over something kinda really insignificant and pretty subjective: Yes.

Quote:

That's great that you think emulators suck.

Never what I said. I'm saying it's pretty dumb for them to be used for multi.

Quote:

But that's your opinion.

NO SHIT SHERLOCK

Quote:

And frankly I don't give a damn.

Oh. Okay. You seem to be giving quite a few damns by just how irritated you're coming off as right now, but you said it, so it must be true.

Quote:

If you think it's too complicated and not worth it, fine, don't use a goddamn emulator.

Hey man do not tell me what to do. Get off your high horse with your holier-than-thou bullshit. You are coming in here completely unprovoked. If you don't want me to use a goddamn emulator that's fine. Do not insult and degrade me.

Quote:

Just don't go around trying to force your narrow-minded views on other people by insulting and degrading them.

"Using USB gamepads and playing around a computer screen isn't really that great"
"LEAVE ME ALONE AND STOP DEGRADING ME I'M OFFENDED NOW CAN'T YOU JUST HAVE RESPECT FOR MY BELIEFS AND TRADITIONS THIS IS SO INSULTING AND DEGRADING"

I was speaking idiomatically.

A: ...

Okay, fair play, but I still don't see how I was insulting and degrading people on the topic of Mario Kart 64. I'm done.

ON A LIGHTER TOPIC apparently prices for games on specific consoles aren't fixed. In Japan, Ocarina of Time is now available for 1200 points, which is pretty annoying - I guess it's a case of "everyone wants it so we'll make it expensive". Bah.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

"Something called"? SOMETHING? It's kinda really not obscure and sorta really good.

I won't buy it, though, because as far as I know it isn't on the UK VC yet.

FELIPE NO

Why do you think this.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Aren't Neo Geo games big-fuck-off-huge?

How ya doing, buddy?

I won't be able to get it until next year unless a generous person wants to gift me it.

Goddamn, if you're that stuck, acquire it from somewhere else. Ye gods above.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Tetris Party is apparently pretty solid. Might check it out.

I mean, fuck, I hear there's a balance board mode. All three Wii Fit owners competent enough to get their Wii online will love this!

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Nah, that's how it's done now. By 2014 all games will be announced with a 10/10 review from IGN.
