 Pretty Nice

Is the use of their service going to be free as well?

I can get these old games for free so why should I pay?

Kind of....pricey?

$9? You can buy almost any Nintendo game on eBay or at a yard sale for that much. I was thinking along the lines of like $2-$3/game, IF that.

Emulators are buggy. Nintendo knows how to write a flawless emulator for any of their consoles. Plus, with their new controller, it will make all of this very enjoyable.

Re: Kind of....pricey?

Yeah, I agree that is kind of pricey. As already mentioned a lot of people emulate these games already for free. Paying 4.50 to 9 per game will turn off a lot of people but dropping the price to $1-$2 a game would really get people thinking its may be worth the buy. Here's hoping Nintendo see the feedback and think twice about it.

There's a Zelda Collection edition thing for the Gamecube which contains the NES and N64 games on it I believe it.

 Bionic Commando and Master Blaster, HERE I COME!!

I'm with Karl, I desperatly want to play Bionic Commando!

I also can't wait to play a game called Master Blaster. I would love to re-play Contra and the SNES Castlevania series.

IMHO, the Xbox 360 has great graphics but even their funnest games are only a 5 on a 1-10 scale. Nintendo has so many 10 quality games they can keep you busy for MONTHS! I also would love to play Battle Tanks or Starfox series.

Graphic are not the holy grail in the new console wars...

Er, you've apparently never played Majora's Mask on the GameCube.

i'd be willing to bet that the $9 games will be the N64 titles (as they are newer) and/or the Sega/TG16 titles because of paying for licensing them.

probably any nintendo wholly owned title will be less than the third party stuff which would also account for a flux in the pricing.

Never had a problem using ZSNES.

Get a better emulator then. Back when I used to use them I didn't encounter troubles. Sorry but free for all is beating 9 dollars for one game.

One of my fav games, still have it downstairs. I'll never forget getting to the end and being "wtf, hitler?"

On topic, I knew...just knew nintendo was gonna get greedy with these prices. If they had a brain they'd make them sub dollar amounts, then they'd fly off the shelves and people would give into temptation more easily.

Yes, but look at the bright side! Since it's all digital with no physical medium, you'll never have to blow inside those NES cartridges to clear the contacts of dust ever again!

Re: Duck Hunt!

No gun... just the wireless Wii remote. Point it at the screen and shoot (just like they've demoed in the FPS Wii shooters such as Metroid Prime 3: Corruption).
