*shakes head in disgust*
ABF. You sir, are completely insane. How to break this down for you....
Okay, here we go!
GBA: Not a SNES. Much more powerful, but not so much that SNES ports look bad on it. Key word being PORTS. Why can Nintendo get away with selling SNES ports for so much? Because you can play them wherever you want to! Weeee!
IQue: A system that plays N64 and SNES games, designed specifically for the Chinese market because of piracy, and because they never released the SNES or N64 there. It is NOT portable. It offers NOTHING over an N64 and SNES. In fact, it's much worse than those systems because it can't even play the original carts and the controller looks like ass. I don't even think you can play multiplayer games with it. If the IQue were a portable N64-equivalent then of course you would see N64 ports and original games that look like N64 titles. But it's NOT, it's China's version of our N64 and SNES! It just plays ROMs on a flashcard! That's it!
If Nintendo released the IQue here and started to make new games for it, then they might as well bring back the NES and put their developers to work on new NES software. And while we're at it, let's get Atari to re-release the 2600 and start releasing new games for it.
Seriously man... I'm disappointed in you. This is the dumbest thing you've ever said. If only you could see the disappointed look on my face right now.
