Enhanced Interlaced Mode 2 (double resolution screen) support

As usual, you are wrong.

Where are people going to get these ROMS? Their PC perhaps? If they have them on their PC then they can already play them.

You still fail to realize just how many people are actually capable of using these hacks versus those that either can't, don't want to or choose to be legal .

Ah well, some day you'll learn.

"you work for Nintendo don't you?"

No, but I am a software author so I know how full of crap you are in these matters.

"I'm here to tell people why it's a waste of money to spend $5-$8 per game when they can be downloaded free."

This is why you're an idiot. You only give people HALF the information. You only give them the HALF that allows you to create the fake propaganda that you wish to create. Sure, you can download all these games and play them for free. THAT'S ILLEGAL. Most people choose to remain legal.

"Who cares about making the rich even richer?"

What the hell does that have to do with anything? It seems to me that your a poor POS that hates anyone with money. Just because Nintendo did something right and became a huge successful company you want to bash them for that? Why? Because someone other then you succeeded while you remain a failure? So, if you ever grow up (yeah right!) and become a success are other people to bash you because you continue to make money off a product they feel should be free?

"The money does not go to the creative talent that made the games"

Why should it? They already got paid. No one person made these games. It took the MONEY and the BACKING of a larger corporation to put these games together. If the individual employees think they can do it without Nintendo then they should all mortgage their homes and go in to business for themselves.

"Does it matter if its technically illegal?"

Yes.

"Since VC service required almost no effort by Nintendo and yet brings in millions this is also making them lazier in releasing quality games."

That's false.

"How many "big" Wii releases for the next year? 2?"

Way more.

"Exactly."

Exactly WRONG. Hahaha....

"There's Mario Kart, Wii fit (is that a game?), oh and Smash Brothers. I guess 3 is way more huh?"

Way more then that! Just because YOU don't like them doesn't mean COUNTLESS others dont.

"As long as Ninty is making huge profits, they won't listen to their fans or offer anything substantial."

There is nothing to listen to. Also, there is plenty of substantial "content" coming from Nintendo.

"Good Gamecube games like RE4 and Twilight Princess only came about because Nintendo was LOSING."

Still thinking about that one I bet! Hehehe...
