Why I Will Like the Virtual Console

When the Wii comes out, millions of people are going to download millions of classic games on the Virtual Console. Will I be one of those people? Maybe.

You’re probably thinking I’m crazy right about now. My SNES and N64 collections each consist of over 40 games, and I’m looking to fill in some gaps in those collections. You’d think the best way to do so would be purchasing the games off of the Virtual Console, of course.

The Quiet Before The Storm

*Note: This will be written only considering facts from North America (titles released, release dates, etc).

Each transition from one console generation to the next has its own characteristics. Last time around, back 5 or 6 years, one system suddenly died and one prospered. The Playstation finished strong with titles such as Syphon Filter 3, Chrono Cross (sequel to possibly the best RPG of all-time), Final Fantasy IX (possibly the best FF game of all-time), and more, all in the half a year prior to the launch of the PS2 and soon thereafter. On the other hand, the N64 just rolled over and died. A system as great as the N64 deserved a much grander exit, but that was not the case. On May 7, 2001, Mario Party 3 was released for the N64. IGN was quoted, “The game that could be the last of the Nintendo-published titles on the N64 has shipped.” Not only that, but it also signified the end of a great era. For the next 6 months, N64 owners were enjoying their favorite oldies, nothing new whatsoever. Any major games in development for the N64 were then moved to be released on Gamecube, with some being great (Animal Crossing) and and some being duds (Star Fox Adventures).

Sony to ship defected systems,even if tested to be defective.

“As Sony’s PlayStation 3 console nears its official release, more focus has turned to the technical wizardry that lays inside the actual machine. The Cell processor, developed by IBM, Sony and Toshiba, has gained a great deal of attention over the last year. In an interview with Electronic News however, IBM vice president of Semiconductor and Technology Services Tom Reeves says that his company is lucky if it can get 10% to 20% yields on the Cell processor.
