How can they suck if they are developed by the own companies?

lol nintendo's are just fine for performance but a reason they suck? how about the fact EVERY ROM has a EMULATORS SOFTWARE attached to it why does that suck you say? well because it means if you buy 12 n64 roms you also have to take 12 SEPERATE emulators into account ...WHY does that matter? because you dont have a lot of onboard memory or room for roms (while they can be STORED on a SD they cannot be PLAYED FROM SAID SD) as far as it getting cracked i think that it was bound to happen and pointing the finger at waninkoko wont really do a lot now but im just hoping that wiiware isnt effected :P but we kinda knew that it would get patched one way or another nintendo wouldnt have just ignored the twilight hack because as posted above a little research and your booting emulators with the twilight hack from a front SD in no time i think its funny how you defend emulators but condem the VC all over nintendo reaction

"they need little financial reasons to secure there system EVEN WITHOUT VC being hacked IT WOULD BE ADDRESSED
i mean look at free loader and the action replay exploit and sd loader all being noticed by ninty security but we had no prob with waninkoko releasing the nandumper app LOL or BOOSTER releasing devhook or DA releasing a new custom firmeware....so i think he was right to say there is some hypocritical response to this...IF YOU USE A NON LICENSED SOFTWARE your STILL NOT ON NINTENDO's "good side" please beleave! rofl ...

All i can say is, the TP hack better not get patched in the next few months because of this. That would put us back at square zero. All i ever wanted from the wii-scene was a usable linux distro, like xbox-linux....... Looks like now, that might not be happening.

I could care less about the emulators for wii, just give me the homebrew games, like wii-tetris, ballion, etc...

I have a very sad, deep feeling, that nintendo will destroy the wii-scene as we know it.

GOD THIS SUCKS

[idapimp]

i am a believer that the VC is a good thing due to the fact that it gets younger gamers to open up to the concept of classic games and the fact that state of the art graphics don't make the game. however i just hope that the US release of mario kart wont require an update/hack patch to play it. if it doesnt then i will be fine. i just wont update my wii until a work around is found.

only 50 cents?

Chrono Trigger? Final Fantasy? Phantasy Star? Legend of Zelda?

And Earthbound, possibly one of the most expensive SNES games I've ever bought (more expesnive then chorno and FF). Can't forget the Earthbound...

Unfortunately, since there are no public WAD packing tools, this is useless for the general public and will likely only lead to Nintendo patching security holes that may otherwise be useful for legitimate homebrew.

This is very bad news for the scene. I think Nintendos pricing has something to do with it though. In the UK an N64 game is £7 (apprx $14) which is an amazing rip-off. You could buy an actual console with a few games for little more than that! BUT! We had an alternative.. Homebrew! Now the actions of this fool may jepordise that

In Europe the emulators dont run too well compared to homebrew (playing through the GCube offered better emulation with more options). We had bars on the edges and choppy emulation

Hey if the wii has such good emulators why don't we/ some hacker grab the source code to them and port to other systems including the Ds and pc :-) ?

But £7/$15 is a lot for an old game which is only yours as long as you own that console and even then as long as you have room for it on the wii memory!
