well, how about this. something similar to a game genie / 32x. the game goes into the top of the device, the device goes into the console. swap out the device for each system. controller inputs could be in there as well. ugly, but less ugly.
well, the thing about those collections is that they are not the original games.
i have the megaman collection and the street fighter collection.
in both cases -- it's not the original game. it's the game, redone over to look better (i like the older looking games) and it fixes the glitches that gave the game character (ie, no start button superdamage in megaman 1).
as far as megaman goes, there are no configuration options for controller buttons, so i can't change the buttons to resemble my nes controller's -> im stuck using their layout.
Satoru Iwata, Nintendo president, confirmed that the new console will be able to run games originally made for the GameCube.
Finally, nintendo making something that has backwards compatability. unlike the 'super game boy' or 'game boy color playing game boy games'. It would be fantastic if they could make a way to play NES, SNES, or n64 games on the new system. I'd spend my money on that.
"In the universe of interactive entertainment, there is a planet we call video games. We know this planet the best, but it is not the only one," he explained.
"There are other planets that entertain, and it is those planets we are keen to explore."
so, does that mean they're more interested in adapting other forms of entertainment onto their new system? music, movies, porn, internet? a full computer that will work with their specific game cartidges and discs, with the insane GPU processing power of video game systems?
I recall using wordperfect on my 286, 386, 486, and my pentium machine. Whenever I had an MS Office product to compare it against, it always ran better. Even when bought by Corel and changed around for that.
There is all this hype about podcasting but nothing about shoutcasting or other forms of internet radio -- which have been aroudn longer and have more than quite a bit of a userbase...
Want to solve the problem of distribution and get rid of the need for mirrors?
pull an AOL. Give out millions of CD's everywhere. Every random Joe and Tom will pick one up at compusa on their way out. And Grandma will get one in the mail.
Then I can rebuild the cd-mirror on my wall that fell down when my roommate slammed the door too hard:]
