Yet Nintendo games will still never go on sale and Nintendo will charge more for worse quality controllers than any other company in the business.

Tariffs don’t even impact video games, and yet they raised the prices by 33%

That’s because prices don’t reflect costs, but what sellers believe we will pay. If people stopped paying them…

I’ve only been pirating Nintendo games since the Wii era. When they released the Wii and stopped providing support for the old consoles they were dead to me. Before that I was able to get my NES serviced for $35 at Nintendo of America in Redmond, Washington and that included new parts and my games all getting cleaned.

I revamped my 3ds recently and loaded that thing up! I’ll never part with this thing. I can also play MK online via Pretendo Network. Image

You ever play any GCN in your travels? Wondering if I’m better off hacking my wii (due to the GCN being natively built in) or if emulation through something like dolphin might be better.
Never got to experience the gamecube all that much so im open to ideas. I do have one of those nice wireless wavebird controllers which has me slightly gravitating to hacking the wii

If you have a quality PC, I always promote emulation over hardware, just because modern PC hardware can do things like let you play old games at higher resolutions and framerates.
Also, if you want to use those Wavebirds on PC, you can use receiver for them in something like this:

I like hacking the old systems, but I have more fun hacking them than actually continuing to game on them since using my PC and streaming the games to other screens is just more flexible for my needs.
