Revolution To Offer Classic Downloads
Written by Bryan Los on March 24th, 2006 @ 9:04 AM
Nintendo today announced partnerships with Sega and Hudson to offer 1,000 classic Genesis and Turbografx games for download on the Revolution’s Virtual Console!
Wow! The Nintendo Revolution looks like it’s getting better and better with every press release. With the sad state console gaming is in right now, I hope Nintendo can go retro, and actually make it work. I’d rather play tried and true, time-tested games I know I loved rather than spend $60.00 on an Xbox 360 dud!
I’ve always said for some time that Nintendo needs to do a hardware-based “game library” of all their best titles. I don’t think that will happen any time soon, but the Virtual Console is the next best thing. I think this could work and make millions of people very happy.
