There would probably be legal issues with people who had already bought the games in their original cartridge form who don't feel they should have to pay for the game again. It would also stop at Gameboy Advance games, because it becomes increasingly hard to fit two screens worth of content onto an iPhone screen with the necessary buttons and directional pad.
- alanctgardner2 13y agoThe first one isn't a problem for ninty: you aren't perpetually entitled to new releases because you bought one copy on one medium. You don't get a DVD because you blight Snow White on VHS, and you really don't have standing to torrent it either.
- djent 13y agoMost people are of the opinion that they have a right to make a copy for backup purposes - a copy that they could then transfer to an emulator, although I have no citations at the ready to verify the legality of this. If Nintendo were to release many games at once, bundled with the app, I'd agree with you, but if they were to let you download them individually through an in-app purchase, I'd tend towards the latter.
