I'd like to see a GBC enhanced port of Toki Tori for DSiWare.

Because unlike its sequels it doesn't try to be a serious fighting game. It knows it's an amazing party game and goes with that.Teknoman said:

Yoshi's Island is definitely my most wanted game. Hopefully, its absence means there is a Wii iteration in the works.

Is there a point in releasing Monster Land SMS?

It's interesting. There doesn't seem to be a problem with any other system, so why no third-parties on the N64?

Isn't there some kind of rights dispute regarding Mischief Makers? I don't know the details, but it seems that even if we were getting third-party N64 games, Mischief Makers would be out of the question. It's too bad, because Mischief Makers is a fantastic game.
But, thoughts of "lol, third-party N64 games" aside, it is strange that we haven't gotten any. (Sin and Punishment doesn't really count since it was Nintendo-published) Not that it's a deep well to draw from, but there are still a few good ones we could be getting.

B-dum tish!
Should have seen that one coming...
Cosmonaut X said:
Mostly because most of them needed a controller pak, which would require some (massive) re-programming, then there goes three options:
a) Games are not supposed to be modified at all. This is not really plausible as Nintendo themselves have modified Mario Kart 64 to allow saving ghost races (which was only possible with a controller pak) and added the option to transfer photos to the Wii from Pokémon Snap.
b) Third parties just want to send their games "as is" and receive their paycheck as they do with the other systems in VC so they refuse to assign a team to an N64 game even to change "controller pak port 1" to "save slot 1". Obscure studios and publishers holding IPs from dead studios (Acclaim, etc...) may have something to do with this point too. This is the most realistic option.
If the GAF discussion last time Mischief Makers came up is any indication, the issue is that Treasure developed while Enix published and they dispute who owns the IP. Edit: Looking below, I sure hope jarrod's right.
I sold off the N64 original years ago because I couldn't go back to its slow pace after Melee--but after Brawl went back to being slow, I really want to have all three readily available for comparison purposes. Besides, I think it'll play much better with a GC controller than it ever did with the N64's.Teknoman said:
YES! Monster Land Monday plz!Capndrake said:
SFX2 emulation probably means it's a ways off. We haven't even seen any SFX1 chip games yet. :/TheGrayGhost said:
They're more work. Nintendo does all NES/SNES/N64 emulation and testing inhouse, from their perspective it's probably not worth sinking the investment into 3rd party N64 stuff yet.Cosmonaut X said:
It was thought so until Ragukagi Showtime came to PSN. That couldn't have happened if Enix and Treasure were still fighting over IPs....Iam Canadian said:
Wonder Boy in Monster Land on Monday would be nice. I'm all set to get demolished again and again, seeing so many people make claims about its difficulty--especially since I didn't even have an entirely easy time with some of the Dragon's Curse bosses and will probably never beat the final boss of Wonder Boy in Monster World.
Jiggy said:
Fear the timer! I think I got stuck on the final boss in Monster World, too. Assuming that means you are exactly as good at games as me, after many play throughs you will finally get stuck in the final maze dungeon (which is where the next game opens).
jarrod said:
MSX would also be nice. Maybe I'll finally get to play the original crappier version of Golvellius.
LOL. Even thinking about VC Dragon's Curse makes my eyes water. Damn Hudson's shitty emulation!Jiggy said:
Sega needs to deliver the SMS version so I can actually play through it again.
Both MSX versions were already translated!jay said:
Sega needs to get on that SMS version asap. Actually, there's a lot of great SMS games they need to get on (Psycho Fox, Zillion, Golden Axe Legend, Phantasy Star, Shinobi World, Bubble Bobble, R-Type, Ghouls n Ghosts, Rampage, etc, etc).

Sega's version of Dragon's Trap was better and had better music. I know Golvellius was translated and then the remake too but it's not the same. When I was in college I downloaded a billion ROMs and played each for 3 seconds. To really appreciate it, as stupid as this sounds, it needs to cost me something. or maybe I just need to exercise self control.
Those SMS games should come out but I grew up with a Master System and still own a lot of them so I can wait. And I'm offended you didn't mention Miracle Warriors.
I'd probably buy Dragon's Trap on VC--Ialready double-dipped on both versions of Monster World, and those were more expensive. Really wish that series would make a comeback these days (on DS, WiiWare, XBLA, DSiWare, whatever it took), though I guess I'm part of the problem for not having even heard about it before VC.
I'd definitely buy Monster World IV too, but the odds of that--yeah.

Can we expect to see the last two SNES-era Mario games I care about, Super Mario Kart and Yoshi's Island, to show up in 2009? (I care about Super Mario All Stars too, but let's be realistic about that one...)
I loved Mario Kart DS and Mario Kart Wii a lot, but my memory is very rusty on SMK. It'd be nice to play Yoshi's Island again on the big screen (I put my GC away due to space issues, so no GB Player for me).

Guess I'll never get that all-Mario channel front page I was hoping for on my Japanese Wii. :lol
Super Mario Galaxy - Mario Bros. - Super Mario Bros. - Super Mario Bros. 2
Super Mario USA - Super Mario Bros. 3 - Super Mario World - Super Mario 64
Super Mario RPG - Paper Mario - Yoshi's Island - Yoshi's Story

Since we're getting a remake, I doubt we'll see Mario Tennis, but I hope to the heavens that I'm wrong. That game is awesome.Jiggy said:
jarrod said:But Golvellus MSX/2 was translated for money. It was on the short lived woomb.net, along with some other Compile games (Aleste, Aleste 2, Zanac & Zanac EX iirc).
Also, I HATE Miracle Warriors. Sorry.
Oh yeah, I checked woomb.net last week looking for it actually. 'Twas down. Or over. Or something. And why no love for Haja no Fūin? Nice enemy art, sweet music, four character party, topless demon chick as final boss...

:lol I'm the same way. However, I've bought over 80 VC games and I've only really played, much less finished, a handful of them. I guess it's just knowing that I own the game legitimately that makes VC more satisfying.
With Smash Bros. being out in Japan despite Brawl, I'm not worried just because the remake exists.crowphoenix said:
Besides, if by any chance Nintendo took Gamecube controller support out of the GC remake,
On a separate note that's only somewhat on-topic, I'm surprised Nintendo isn't doing (or at least hasn't announced that they'll do) a remake of the GC Mario Golf too. I realize their Wii Sports golf controls weren't anywhere near that of the tennis ones, but still. And I doubt they specifically held back because they figured the N64 VC release was sufficient.

Maybe Nintendo's just holding it in reserve for a future batch of Wiimakes. I doubt we've seen the last of the Wii control remakes unless they bomb spectacularly or something.
