Also, who thought it was a good idea to rerelease a multiplayer-focused game (Amazing Mirror) and remove the multiplayer entirely?

If its anything like the GB/GBC games, it was likely a technical limitation. Heck, GBA carts that supported the wireless adapter didn't even communicate when played on a DS/DSLite despite the system having a wireless communication system built in, so its likely that was the case for the GBA titles. Pokemon was the exception but even that took a good five years after the system launch to get on the eShop because of Game Freak

Nintendo not carrying was the thing.
That's why there are no save states.
They explicitly said those would be forever exclusive to the ambassador program, so why put effort into something that can't make you money?

To please the ones who get it.

But you're doing it as an apology. They didn't have to give these games. They didn't need to please us.

Another thing that bothers me is why the GBA games never filled the whole screen despite the widescreen aspect ratio. Complain to Nintendo? =P

And as for the GameCube, no-one knows what happened to the GameCube. It was last seen being discontinued in 2007.

You mean a thing that happened some time ago is older now and it's suddenly dawning on you that an equal amount of time has passed for you as well? How revolutionary.

I still use the gamecube at my grandma's house. We play sonic mega collection, mario party 7, wind waker, and sometimes SSBMelee.

What I meant is that GameCube games still aren't on Virtual Console.
Also, could someone please get me a working PAL copy of Klonoa 2: Lunatea's Veil from the alternate universe where it was released on GameCube? I don't own any Sony systems any more. Then again, I haven't played Door to Phantomile yet...
