The Nintendo 64 and GameCube home consoles were the great ostensible successors of the 16-bit Super Nintendo.

Just imagine playing your GameBoy games on a 50 inch TV previously designed for a 2.9 inch screen. The game was brought over so elegantly, that users forget they were even playing older Gameboy games. The idea is weird, but not as crazy as you might think. Even though GameBoy games are available on Wii, they haven’t made them available for download on its portable console the 3DS yet. The Wii console puts the hand-held games Nintendo released in the last decade on its new home console. You can also play the new GBA games that are added to the list every week. All the games you enjoyed on your Gameboy are now available on your TV and your Gamepad controllers. It’s easy to play the games on TV or the Wii console’s tablets, like the Gamepad controller. Most games on Wii will cost around $10 each. You can start by downloading the Metroid Fusion, Advance Wars, and Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga. Nintendo kick-started the new services by releasing a trio of excellent games previously enjoyed in the Gameboy. I thought constantly about what we could do to stop games being regarded with hostility in the family.One aspect of the Wii is that it connects to the Internet and supports excellent online features that aren’t available for GameBoy users except for on the Wii mini. The idea behind this functionality came from Iwata wanting parents to get more involved with their children’s play-time and being able to keep track of how much time they spend on the system. The one that might raise the most eyebrows, though, is Iwata’s discussion of the “Play History”, a feature which automatically collects information on what games you’ve been playing and for how long and, currently, it can’t be erased. In a recently released “Iwata Asks!” interview, Nintendo delves into the decisions that went into making the Wii Message Board and discusses some interesting features.
