Wii-SNES mod: take that, Virtual Console!

Kotomi, the French mod master has finally turned his sights onto the Wii, and the result is beautiful to behold. Forget the Virtual Console -- you can just snap your old SNES carts right in there and throw down. All you need is a classic controller and a lot of extra time. Kotomi has been working on this mod since February, and it was originally planned as an NES mod, but along the way, he gave in to the pervasive allure of the Super NES.

Who understand these people... I get this article reported because it was not linking to the original source... and then when I do, people complain it's not in english? Forget posting news. Is there a way to take this post down?

to modify my wii or use any mod chip. So it works fore many people with wiiconnect24 Nintendo can just update witha software patch to destory the systmen totally is anyone use a mod chip or and device like that. Besides, even if they don't I still wouldn't take the chance to put any mods in my consoles. I don't have $250 to just risk and throw away like that. Besides, this is a silly mod anyway because its not like everyone or even mostly everyone that ever owned a SNES or any of those 1st and 2nd gen systems would still have everygame they ever wanted. Sure you can put you games in the darn thing but what if you want a game you don't have you still have to buy if and finding it can be a hassle as well as the fact it may cost most physically than the VC game. The purpose of VC is to enable anyone that bought a Wii to have every game the every wanted buy simple download from 1st-3rd( maybe 4th not sure)gen games for an very affordable price. Any mario kart or donkey kong game on snes will run you at least $20 and I personally paid $30 for Super Metroid. I'll just stick with VC, thanks.

Zelda Replay: Majora's Mask

VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Is Ocarina of Time as legendary as I remembered it? For the most part, yes. In spite of a handful of missteps — a few obtuse puzzles, some tedious backtracking, and a clunky stealth sequence — I don't believe the last 23 years have been unkind to it. Ocarina remains a brilliant example of the medium, a landmark game that shaped the future of its own franchise and 3D gaming in general. After more than two decades it retains its inventive dungeon design, challenging puzzles, dynamic combat, wistful storyline, unforgettable music, and empowering open-air freedom. I feel confident calling it one of the greatest games of the fifth generation, even if I'm no longer prepared to list it among the five best games ever made."

Pure unadulterated fun. They don't make them like this anymore...especially not the triple A industry.

Back when video rental was a thing, I rented out Majoria's Mask, I never finished it though. I did buy the 3DS version before the eshop shutdown, so maybe one day I'll finally play through the whole thing, it's amazing how well these games hold up though. I briefly played Ocarina of Time for a while and it was really fun.

6 Fun Games Where You Actually Play As The Bad Guy

While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.

Profchaos18d ago

Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.

It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny

Armored Core VI?

Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.

Is something big coming soon to branch the story?

banger8818d ago

No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).

Trevor in GTA 6 is a sadist and psychopath who dabbles in cannibalism. Should be top of the list. These game “news” sites should hire people that know games.

Strange headline, as I thought the star of the show was Super RType. I almost bought RType Dimensions EX this last month and was just thinking, man I wish we had the SNES one somewhere on Switch. That's where I got my start w the series and I was beyond excited to see it drop this week!
