Some games are available for DL.. But I can't see myself paying Nintendo for emulator & some ROMs, it just does not sound right to me

You're talking about WII Virtual Console (VC), this is actually a software which has the ability to emulates games like PC-Engine, SNES and Megadrive. But it's not in the original ROM format though, so you can only play the games that are specially re-released for the VC.

While as for the 'true' retro gamers, they will feel more of the nostalgic feeling when playing with the original console. This is something that emulation cannot replace though icon_rolleyes.gif

May be it's just me but why pay for emulation when they are available for "free"? I know you pay for the ROMs legally but still I couldn't see myself doing that sad.gif

Yup, for me it's a waste of money. I also have the same thought about all the on-line downloadable games. Better buy the 'real' thing that you can physically see and touch tongue.gif

I'm back to the 16-bit era of Megadrive & SNES, where games are still just plain & fun to play. In fact, I'm also currently keen on collecting these games. Mostly I'm playing beat'em ups, shmups & also strategy/ RPG games.

How about yourself Gundam ? which console/ games you're playing right now ?

Yeah, but I'm upgrading to LCD soon so I have to get the next best thing. I have an extra converter + spider cable (for Saturn, SNES/NGC, PS1/2/3, XBox & Dreamcast) both brand new never use to rid of soon.
