benjam138 Posted December 31, 2006 Share Posted December 31, 2006 (edited) I tried playing them tonight and they wouldn't work. Just wondering if this is because of the virtual console. edit: Now they work. Edited December 31, 2006 by benjam138 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabriel Posted December 31, 2006 Share Posted December 31, 2006 I'm eager to hear about this. It didn't occur to me that Nintendo might go so far as to lock even those games out. Yet, it fits with their historical position on such things. So, what's the verdict? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moycon Posted December 31, 2006 Share Posted December 31, 2006 I don't get it. You mean when you play the GC version of Animal Crossing on your Wii the NES games you unlock don't work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoop Posted December 31, 2006 Share Posted December 31, 2006 if that was the case i dont think sonic mega collection, sonic gems collection, midway collections, megaman collections, and etc all wouldn't work either ,but they do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inky Posted December 31, 2006 Share Posted December 31, 2006 if that was the case i dont think sonic mega collection, sonic gems collection, midway collections, megaman collections, and etc all wouldn't work either ,but they do. Not necessarily. Nintendo could lock out just their own titles. However, it could be a fluke in the way Animal Crossing works with the Wii Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjam138 Posted December 31, 2006 Author Share Posted December 31, 2006 Ok, so I tried again this morning and they work. I tried a regular controller and my Wavebird last night and I swear they didn't work. I was gonna be pissed if I had to buy Donkey Kong again. Who knows why they wouldn't work?

I have a points card I got with that bundle I bought and was trying to figure out what to get with it, I may have to reconsider since some of the games I already have through AC.

dcescott Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 I am a ultra newbie about the GC animal crossing game. What and how do I get those NES games?? I refuse to download any NES titles, simply because they are 1-3 bucks at a flea market. I am interested in Animal Crossing, and was looking into buying it anyways...

benjam138 Posted January 3, 2007 Author Share Posted January 3, 2007 They are supposed to be gifts for your Birthday & Christmas. I think that I also won one from Tom Nook's monthly raffle once. But you can find a code (per game), give it to Nook and he will give you the game. I can't remember the site I got the codes from, but just do a search on Google and you should be able to find it.

ninjarabbit Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 (edited) Speaking of playing old games on the Cube/Wii I seriously wonder why some people would buy the Sonic, MegaMan, and Midway or even Zelda games for the VC when they are available on collection discs for the Cube Edited January 4, 2007 by ninjarabbit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MegaManFan Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 Speaking of playing old games on the Cube/Wii I seriously why some people would buy the Sonic, MegaMan, and Midway or even Zelda games for the VC when they are available on collection discs for the Cube Well I'd buy the Mega Man ones for obvious reasons but it's precisely for that reason I didn't buy Legend of Zelda even though I have 600 points idling doing nothing (I would have bought R-Type but damn that 800 point price). I did buy Mario Bros. strictly because it's the original old NES version and for my money it's actually harder than the modern cleaned up one they throw in free with every GBA Mario title.

Also, if you want Punch Out!! you have to a semi-complex thing that requires 2 memory cards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce Tomlin Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 I am a ultra newbie about the GC animal crossing game. What and how do I get those NES games?? I refuse to download any NES titles, simply because they are 1-3 bucks at a flea market. I am interested in Animal Crossing, and was looking into buying it anyways... As I remember, there were codes that you could give Tom Nook so that people could send you items without having to be physically connected. The problem is that they had the town name built into the code. When people started playing around with the codes they found that there were some codes that worked regardless of the town name. Maybe someone made a code generator for it... (checks Google)... http://www.zophar.net/personal/mooglyguy/codegen.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
