For free and open sourced, right? I mean logic of advancement in technology, civilization, and social development dictate you wouldn't actually have the face to charge people for 20 to 30 year-old games. Considering the already arbitrarily and artificial constraints on non-scarce resources in place, and the wholly unfair wealth redistribution over the past 20 years.

It is kinda a gip to make someone repurchase their nes games when the whole reason they cannot play them on the old console is a terrible slot design. Then again, anyone who can't figure out a simple emulator kinda deserves it.

Yeah that's why Earthbound is selling for over $200 a cart now on Ebay when it was $80 last year. Kinda surprised it took Nintendo this long to put it on the VC list being how it's popularity has soared over the last few years

Right, because no one would ever pay for anything greater than 10 years old. I mean, NOTHING older than 20 years has ANY value, monetary or not. EVER.

Congratulations, you're the first person I've ever called entitled over the internet.

once again, an actual entitled, spoiled, brat like you have been brainwashed into confusing 'value' with 'price'. No wonder western society is such a brain-dead culture.

I honestly don't see the problem. As noted above, the games won't likely be very expensive, and Nintendo certainly has every right to try to sell its own product, old or not. After all, even Nintendo should know you can easily emulate the entire NES/SNES library on a smartphone, including every game ever made for either system on the same phone. So, unless they're certifiably insane or submoronic, they'll just charge a minor "convenience fee".

Of course, they may very well be bugnuts crazy or waterbrained pinheads. We'll see ^^' .

Edit --> WTF? How did this article make me want to install MAME on my phone..?! lol
