Lack of Legacy Content on Switch Hurts Nintendo More Than Us

The Virtual Console is a thing of the past and Nintendo is dragging their feet when it comes to letting us buy and play older games. Here's why I think they're hurting themselves in the long run.

@St0rm Ranger You can buy BotW contrary to the games Sufficient is referring to. Emulating games that aren't for sale is sometimes necessary if you really want to play it. But that's hardly a Nintendo only issue. Pirating games is more or less fine if you are a poor teenager. As an adult that's just being cheap.

I'm still bitter that most of the best Gamecube games have yet to be rereleased in any way, shape or form despite Nintendo being more than capable of doing so. To this day, there's no "legit" way to play games like Paper Mario: TTYD, Super Mario Sunshine, the first Chibi Robo, etc. without owning a decade-and-a-half old original copy.

@ghostgaming Because there's been so much controversy and anger from all those people who are insulted and disrespected whenever Nintendo gives you a new way to play NES or SNES games that they still have physical copies of that they purchased at full retail price when they were released. Oh wait. There isn't any.

ghostgaming dude what are you talking about? I literally have copies of GC games and still play on it to this day. I’d LOVE to be able to play games like Mario Party 4-6 on the switch without having to swap discs or bring out an entire console, cables and all. It’s not about trying to one-up people who have already spent hundreds on GC games (because I was one of them), it’s about convenience. I would gladly pay for a digital copy of a GC game instead of having to fork over 40-60$ to buy an original copy off EBay.

@ghostgaming I don't want to and no profit goes to Nintendo from buying them from another person (which will not be at original retail price, either cheaper anyway or sadly, way more expensive for being rare only to the reseller benefits). I don't want to pick old systems, let me pick it up legally again on new console if I want to even if I already played them for hell sakes, I don't care about what feels to me like an old fashioned, close minded and selfish uproar to not release them again to feel kinda special over something that in the end isn't that important and prevent others to play in a relevant way. No wonder their games get pirated if there are no more relevant legal way to get them, that would be their best way to fight against it instead of taking down emulation sites or disallowing search for them in google when they litterally do nothing of these games.

Technically, isn't it still legal to emulate games as long as you own the actual physical game copy? I will unashamedly admit that I did use a flashcart on my old DS, and modded my PSP to be able to load ROMs, but I honestly owned most of those games, I just didn't want to have to carry all of them around with me to University and on the bus. I don't remember who said it, but no matter which way you turn it, piracy is a convenience issue. It's not convenient to have to buy extra hardware or dig around inside your consoles, but when companies make the alternative even less convenient...

@Anomaly That quote "Never forgotten completely" is true. Nintendo hasn't forgotten about F-Zero. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe has the Captain Falcon Mii costume and his car, Blue Falcon, alongside two F-zero like courses, Mute City and Big Blue with remixes of those courses while Super Smash Bros Ultimate has Captain Falcon, as the main fighter/representative of the F-Zero Franchise, some courses and music, an assist trophy of Samurai Goroh, World of light fights(/stickers? I think) that represents some of the F-Zero characters, and some trophies. Nintendo should make an F-zero game for the Switch. It would be a great fit for the console. It should have a new storyline for Captain Falcon, other good characters and bad guys similar to F-Zero gp legend, new characters, new courses, new, machines, a lag free online mode (Lag free may never happen, I'm just being optimistic) new music, a sound test to listen to all the music from all the previous F-Zero games, and a gallery room detailing the origins and the history of all F-Zero games. That, in my opinion, would make a great addition to the Switch library.

@@nileriver216 personally I certainly dislike that they put F-Zero material in Mario kart 8. To me it represented "yeah we're not gonna make another f-zero game but here have these crumbs in a game that is nothing like f-zero". It seemed to toy and belittle the fans and the franchise itself. As if you can substitute a true sequel for the technical brilliance of GX with some references in a slow casual friendly kart game. Being in smash is one thing and of course that's okay because that's a collective celebration of Nintendo's history but being in mk is different and rubs me the wrong way. You can't merge the franchises together, it doesn't work. As awesome as a new F-Zero would be as you described, fzero is as dead as 1080 snowboarding and wave race despite being better and more deserving than those franchises at least imo. But as long as I'm alive I hope that I'm wrong. At least we have Super Pilot in the meantime.

But I'd love it. I never got to play Wind Waker because I didn't have a Gamecube. I also played through Twilight Princess in 2 days because I had only 2 days to beat it before I got to get home. I'd like to play through it at my normal pace and enjoy it more. Also never played Skyward Sword because of the horrible motion controls. So I'd like to have all those games on the Switch.

Arlo- Please consider doing a comparison of Nintendo's approach to legacy content and Disney's use of "The Vault" with their rereleased classics. (Prior to Disney+ that is.) It seems like Nintendo is trying to move toward Disney's model, what with the movies and theme park construction. I've heard Mario was more recognizable than Mickey in the 90's, and comparing the business models of the two may be interesting. Please consider this topic.

@@oldred890 I always likened it to two steps forward, one step back, and one randomly to the side.

Granted they have little control over NES games from other companies and such, and deals to include them would likely be troublesome.

After the whole Smash Melee cease and desist fiasco, this point accentuates to this issue more than ever. The only way for Melee players can play their favorite game nowadays is through emulation, and I know Nintendo understandably views it as piracy but they need to understand that that is the ONLY option they have. We all know Switch can handle it (Mario 3D All-Stars is proof of that) but it ultimately falls on Nintendo to actually renew these titles through emulation on their own console. Most people won't care if there is a pricetag on it; just make it conveniently available. This who melee thing is ridiculous. It's like if a rock band ordered security to escort a group of fans within in their concert because they were asking for them to play the band's old songs.

"Are they really going to want to start with the 4th game in the Series?" Fallout 3 The Elder Scrolls V Metal Gear Solid V Entry points for many fans with no access for previous entries. Despite that, I'm on your side. I'd love to see less of an overhaul in software to see games just simply come to the next platform without really needing to write new code. Sort of like Android. That's what I've always loved about PC games, even though some of those have compatibility issues, I know if I get a game on Steam I can always download it 10 years later (assuming Steam doesn't go anywhere).

I was thinking the same thing. It's almost unheard of for game series to have a running storyline between installments. And I'm not sure I'd want them to because: A - I tend not to faithfully follow franchises but instead hop around between them. B - a continuous series could end like Mass Effect 3 where people play a whole series and feel let down when it all comes to an unsatisfying end. The only games I personally own where I think you need to play them in order is SMT IV and SMT IV Apocalypse (but you don't need to play I - III)..

Hey arlo! I think an important thing to consider here is that new and old games have to compete for people's time. If nintendo released too much back-content at once, fans would have an overwhelming amount to explore, and would be less incentivized to buy the newest game, which is the game that they can sell for the most money. Ideally for Nintendo, their online library would be as small as possible (as long as the offer seems enticing to try, which is why they slowly grow the collection), so that you eventually get tired of playing the retro games or run out of content. This is also why there is a savestate feature in the emulator. I was able to chew through super mario world a lot faster because i didn't have to restart every time i ran out of lives, and this allowed me to move on to the next game more quickly.

Not enough thumbs up on this comment but basically *this* plus the "Disney Vault" marketing strategy is why the game selection is barren. Nothing can be TOO definitive/complete or you wont buy the next thing they release. That's why Galaxy 2 is not included in 3D All-Stars. That's also why some MAJOR titles were missing from the Classic consoles. They purposefully don't give you what you want now so when they sell it later, you will be hungry for it, having been missing it for years.

I completely agree with you man. My first Nintendo console was the Wii, and it managed to catch my attention with smash brothers and Pokémon, which changed me to a gamer. Since having the online service allowed me to play more NES and SNES games, (while not having to send and arm and a leg for more consoles and games that don’t end up supporting Nintendo), it made me more curious about other older games and ips. I really hope they build up on the online service with more consoles and game. Anyways, I agree with you man. :)

I haven't watched to the end yet so I'll change it later if needed but to answer the question of why are they not selling snes game for $10 a piece instead of a subscription service is because they dont want the sales of snes games to cannabalize the sales of indie and third party games on the switch. That was what happened with the wii u. Doing so will scare third party developers from the system.

Why? Most of his arguments are bs. Young players can't be bothered with games from the 90s. They have new games that sell crazy amounts of copies. Pokémon, MK8, Mario Odyssey all sold more than 10 million. A full library of old games won't convince people to buy a switch. They might want to revamp older games Link's Awakening style. N64 had a weird control layout and were mostly 'ugly' games. Wii games have the motion controls to take into account. Nintendo is doing fine and switches are selling like hotcakes.

Arlo, after this time there have been no new consoles announced for NSO. We can assume that no more consoles will be released, or that it will be very limited if new ones come out. I do believe abandoning the virtual console was a baffling decision. The amount of new gamers and returning ones with the Switch is being "wasted" by not giving them the opportunity to re-buy older games.

It also greatly dated people's videos, there where some who included it on their game of the year videos saying how Nintendo would never do something for Metroid 2 and glad fans did. People like the fact that they can get stuff for free and make any excuse they can to justify what they are doing, nothing is going to change that.

ScarfFox and Friends that’s somewhat true; however when people have been given good ways to get content there is a definite drop in piracy. When Netflix first started piracy dropped significantly since it was easier to get a cheap subscription than it was to pirate. Piracy obviously wouldn’t die but it would definitely go down if there was actually a way for people to play these games legitimately without hunting down legacy hardware and cartridges (which doesn’t support Nintendo anyways)

Great video. I do agree a lot Arlo. Great points made in this video. This is one of the reasons to still own a WiiU. I had not realized it, but its virtual console is a great feature. I wasn't going to get rid of it, but I did feel really cheated that nintendo abandoned it and left it mostly for the switch. The WiiU has even DS games, which is the only legal way to play these games on the TV. I have been regularly buying some older VC games on WiiU that I either missed or want to have again. The save state feature is great for some older games. The idea of being limited to only playing older games online is anti consumer because not everyone has stable internet connections in 2020 and there are things like internet outages as well. These games will also not be available once nintendo releases a new console and the older console becomes obsolete. With Virtual console, your digital games will stay as long as the console lives.
