The downside is the community's documentation is scattered trash compared to any other technical part of the internet.
It took me almost 10 years to finally enjoy Ocarina of Time that I have a legit VC copy of. I want to load up a majoras mask wad and all the forum posts just read like lists of codewords i'm not cool enough to know. I set this up almost a year ago, I don't remember what ios versions I installed. I'm gonna have to reboot this thing like 10 times before I figure it out.
Edit: Hacked my 3ds for advance wars, holy shit themes have sound.
Damn that does look good.
My main reason for messing with the Wii is for some comfy couch gaming. Despite being in the age range, I never had an n64 as a kid and only got one a couple months ago from a friend, only to learn I lack the nostalgia to actually enjoy it. I would like to yoink a physical copy of banjo kazooie though. I made the mistake of telling the retro game store I liked Rare titles and they suggested the ugly mess thats jet force gemini. People like it but I couldn't get past the first level. Maybe i'll trade it in and get a game I'd enjoy.
