But the Wii U has two screens. The Switch doesn't.
You can still put both screens on the TV if you want. Not always ideal, but it's an option.

Wii U games on the Switch could probably all be enhanced ports.Yes, exactly. I'd like this system to have every Nintendo system eventually playable on it. I know Wii U won't be possible at first because of the power, but I'd hope that once Switch is powerful enough (maybe Switch iteration number 2 or 3), we'll also see Wii U for the games that don't get ports. Then again, I'm not sure how they'd handle games that actually used the GamePad for asynchronous multiplayer or a game like Star Fox Zero.
I'm being serious! It's happening, folks
GC is a good step. I'd also like Sega systems back. Dreamcast would be awesome too!
"The original assets were on old floppy discs, only some of which were found, and those who were, we battled to make head or tail of the obscure file formats and the random frames of animation spread across the various discs."
"The art was lots of fun and games; let's just say it couldn't have been done without emulators. [...] The artists sat with SNES emulators, stepping through the game one frame at a time with various sprite/background layers toggled and taking screenshots. Most of the backgrounds were redone from scratch, to look as best as possible in the colour palette & scale/resolution of the GBA screen.
"[...] I remember [we put] a lot of extra detail into smoothing out the character animations; finding frames from other moves he could put between certain animation sequences to get rid of jerking/snapping. A lot of it you wouldn't notice unless you're looking out for it though!"
Tom Phillips (Eurogamer) said:GameCube Virtual Console for Switch is indeed a thing, heard from at least 3 people. Working on report now on 1st games, thinking behind it.

Should be fine.Did it anyway (missed this post), I thought it was only on tweets based on insiders that weren't alright but ones on writers were good (I mean we'd have made a thread on the upcoming article anyway)? Unless I missed something.

It would make some games like Kid Icarus Uprising unplayable.
A "Wii U compatible mode!" which has you using the Switch while the Base Station keeps putting out a signal to the TV. The lower performance is not an issue, as it is still more than a Wii U would be able ot put out, and certainly more than a 3DS .
Considering the 3DS uses ARM as well, porting/emulating might be easier than we think . (Okay the GPU is majorly different, but it is a fixed function one in the 3DS, so that you can emulate quite easily on a GPU with shaders ).

If they model it off what PS Plus used to be, hell yeah I'd be all over that. If it's just an excuse to charge people for online mutipayer they can fuck right off. PS Plus as it is today is a massive ripoff. Before they charged for online multiplayer it was the best value for money subscription service I've ever seen. It was ridiculous. I'd love a sub service for Nintendo that was half as good as that.Do we think there is gonna be a subscription service similar to ps+ or GWG? As a consumer I feel like I get great value from it, would be great to see it on a Nintendo platform.
Isn't Kid Icarus compatible with the Circle Pad Pro?

How do you guys think Nintendo would handle memory card emulation on GC VC? Completely overhaul the system? Just auto-saving everywhere? Use the inserted SD Card as a dummy?

Metroid Prime 1 and 2 on the go pls god.
Nintendo Access would be really good actually. They could have a large chunk of the Virtual Console library available as part of the subscription at least. Lets say every NES, SNES and N64 game from Nintendo should be part of the sub.Cuningas de Häme;226160034 said:I think that the comparison should be EA stuff. Solely games (I think), not charging for playing online. And they give discount for games and have creat customer service.
Sony can go and stuff their system somewhere nasty and damp place. Microsoft too. I truly hope that Nintendo won't copy stuff from them.

The online play better be free. And the Plus games have been very lackluster on PS4, so I don't know if I would want a similar rental system on Switch.Do we think there is gonna be a subscription service similar to ps+ or GWG?

What are the thoughts on all these rumors? There's only so much I can handle! 😑
"... Among these titles, Sphinx (and the Cursed Mummy) is very well suited for the Nintendo audience which we love to support. We are excited for Nintendo Switch, Nintendos new platform, and already have two other projects in development for it, Wingefors continues.
I'm very happy about the LPVG rumors (Dark Souls, dock AND tablet include fan) and I guess I'm content with the Gamecube VC rumor, but I think this might indicate that we won't see many Gamecube remasters which I was sorta hoping for.
Unless NERD's emulation allows Gamecube games to upscale nicely to HD resolutions, which I doubt.
Yes, it talked about it here: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1322405&highlight=Well, this is interesting.

Well, we got three N64 on remasters this gen, even though the N64 virtual console was on Wii U, so I don't think it will necessarily be a factor.
Wtf. Seriously, is it a third party game? Why is she spoiling all the surprises??Laura has a freaking trailer of a Switch exclusive game unannounced on her PC and how the hell did she got that
