Every week I keep clicking on these stories, hoping to see a classic SNES game or something similarly appealing to buy.

And each week I'm disappointed.

I love my 3DS. I'm about to buy a Vita as well.

When I compare eshop vs PSN it's not even in the same ballpark.

PSN offers a much larger and great variety of quality games.

* The thing is, Nintendo has the library of games to actually be better than PSN, but they just won't for some reason.

* Easily 100+ SNES & GBA games I'd want to play and would buy.

I know, right? How pathetic is it that a huge swath of gamers can only experience timeless classics like Chrono Trigger or Final Fantasy VI, simply because the only version of those games commonly available are the craptacular PS1 ports Sony has on the PSN.

Nintendo does a lot of things I just... can't understand. At all. But their treatment of the virtual console service takes the no. 1 spot as most inane.

Nice to see Knytt Underground going 50% off. Been thinking about getting it but now it's a no brainer!

I'm curious as to why the Wii Us VC doesn't at least match the Wii's from the get go? Why are they trickle releasing again?

Zelda Replay: Majora's Mask

VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Is Ocarina of Time as legendary as I remembered it? For the most part, yes. In spite of a handful of missteps — a few obtuse puzzles, some tedious backtracking, and a clunky stealth sequence — I don't believe the last 23 years have been unkind to it. Ocarina remains a brilliant example of the medium, a landmark game that shaped the future of its own franchise and 3D gaming in general. After more than two decades it retains its inventive dungeon design, challenging puzzles, dynamic combat, wistful storyline, unforgettable music, and empowering open-air freedom. I feel confident calling it one of the greatest games of the fifth generation, even if I'm no longer prepared to list it among the five best games ever made."

Pure unadulterated fun. They don't make them like this anymore...especially not the triple A industry.

Back when video rental was a thing, I rented out Majoria's Mask, I never finished it though. I did buy the 3DS version before the eshop shutdown, so maybe one day I'll finally play through the whole thing, it's amazing how well these games hold up though. I briefly played Ocarina of Time for a while and it was really fun.
