At least WiiU VC is getting better, but all these games should be on 3DS as well (although I have a few on my XL already)

I wonder if any third party GBA games will be released during the month of April?
March 26th 2014, 2:07 pm
Those are awesome games and the prices aren't too high either
Most of these games will be mine!

I have never played a game in the Golden Sun series so this will be my chance to see what the hype for the series is about!
Hopefully Nintendo will release Golden Sun 2 and the third and final Golden Sun for the DS on the Wii U virtual console!

I don't yet own a Wii U...
March 31st 2014, 12:25 pm
I wonder how quick we'll get N64 and DS games on VC? (hopefully this year)
March 31st 2014, 12:39 pm
DS games are scheduled to launch sometime in June, but there's no word on when N64 games will come to the Wii U Virtual Console.Romantaku wrote:I wonder how quick we'll get N64 and DS games on VC? (hopefully this year)

@Rukia where'd you hear June?!
March 31st 2014, 2:41 pm
I have 15 GBA games (and an original GBA), so I'm not in a tremendous rush for GBA games right now. Still, it's nice that a new option is there for Wii U owners.

Added to my wishlist

Yeah on the eShop you can put games on a wishlist

I believe it was mentioned during the investors meeting back in February.Romantaku wrote:@Rukia where'd you hear June?!

In case you're wondering it's me Clannad in disguise for this year's big April Fools prank.
April 1st 2014, 2:44 pm
I'm downloading most of the games sooner or later.
April 1st 2014, 8:29 pm
I just thought it said coming period not a spacific month being announced
April 1st 2014, 8:44 pm
I'm most definitely going to download Superstar Saga & Metroid Fusion.
April 1st 2014, 8:45 pm
I heard the same thing.Romantaku wrote:I just thought it said coming period not a spacific month being announced
There was an article posted here at WiiWareWave just after the investors meeting that explained that DS games were going to start being released for Wii U in June!

If you liked Super Mario RPG you will fall in love with Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga!NINTENBRO82 wrote:I'm most definitely going to download Superstar Saga & Metroid Fusion.
It is more fun than the similar Super Mario RPG and has funnier dialog than Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door!

Is F-Zero: Maximum Velocity as good as the first F-Zero game for the Super Nintendo?
April 1st 2014, 11:07 pm
I have no idea, but I heard that the other two GBA F-Zero games are far better than Maximum Velocity.Nepgear wrote:Is F-Zero: Maximum Velocity as good as the first F-Zero game for the Super Nintendo?

We Australians are getting Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow on the 25th of April as the first third party Gameboy Advanced title! :-D
April 2nd 2014, 3:23 pm
We're so close... Ugh I can't wait much longer
April 2nd 2014, 6:03 pm
I currently own 12.5% of those GBA games. Can you guess what they are, reader of this post?
April 3rd 2014, 2:35 pm
I decided to download all three GBA games that were released today!
April 3rd 2014, 3:14 pm
I did the same thing so expect all 3 GBA titles released today to be reviewed before next week's eshop update.Kushina wrote:I decided to download all three GBA games that were released today!

I bought the only 2 games i needed on a current gen console, although it seems weird to have a couple GBA games on WiiU and the rest on 3DS ATM
