Pokemon snap

My bro has a wii, but i don't think i'll ask him to download it. I still have the n64 one and play it on occasion. It's a great game but it's not worth getting it on wii too in my opinion. I know it's supposed to be updated a little bit with features but im still happy with the old one.
 
ive played it before but dont have the actual game.my bro wants a wii for cristmas,so i may consider getting the game.plus i never saw anywhere but serebii that its coming for wii.

Not sure but it MAY have been Serebii.net homnepage twice now.

This section (Other games) is Serebii hell.

I'm gonna get it once I get a wii and internet and a point card -.-

I loved Snap so much, and I even kinda (dunno why) liked those huge Snap stations were you put in your game and download your little picture stickers. I want another thing like that, I still have all my old stickers.

Nintendo's use of optical media instead of cartridges and the fact that their current console system doesn't have a required memory card dictate that to see another such promotion technologically cannot happen. If they were to institute such a project, it would be for a DS game, which I can't see them doing.
 
Wow, I'm sleepy and everything you just said was a blur....Lemme read again...

actual reply-Okay Einstein. I'm aware of that, and, nowhere in the aforementioned post did I say anything connecting my wish of optical media to come onto the wii. I merely stated that I enjoyed the frickin thing. I would like it if they made a sequel or such for the Ds...actually, I would LOVE that. However i don't see that happening.

It doesn't sound like you actually know what "optical media" means. Optical media is any of the disc-based mediums, such as CDs or DVDs. Here is your statement from earlier:

And here is a point-by-point explanation of why another such promotion is technologically impossible right now.

- ROM cartridges, such as the type used by the N64, can have data written to them with relative ease and without the explicit need for a memory card. This is what enabled the old sticker machines to work; they read the still image data off of the Snap cartridges and printed that data.

- While optical media can be written upon (CD burners, etc), the Wii does not have this capability nor does the Wii's proprietary media allow for this, and therefore the system must write data to its internal memory.

- While the Wii has capability to transfer data to an easily-portable SD Card, the system does not require use of one for any functions. As such, Nintendo cannot operate a promotion from the assumption that all end users have an SD Card.

- This was not an issue with the N64, as all games (including Pokémon Snap) were capable of saving data within the cartridges, guaranteeing an easy method of moving data that all end users were guaranteed to possess.

- Ergo, for lack of an easily portable method of moving and transferring save data that all end users are guaranteed to be in possession of, another promotion of the sort that the old sticker machines were cannot happen from standpoints practical or technological.

Thank you and good night.
 
I have this on my Wii, and love it. Reminds me of my childhood.:)
