Wii U virtual console input lag.

I haven't noticed any when playing VC games. It should be noticeable when playing Ocarina of Time, but I can play just fine, so I don't think there is any. Maybe it was present in an earlier build and was patched somehow?

I want to play classic oldskool cool games, and the most convenient way for me to do it is through the Wii U/Wii virtual console (I don't want to emulate).

technically, this is emulation

it's just the more socially acceptable form of it (as it should be)

just saying

I dunno I heard shit about it on /vr/ today when I asked about it, so maybe they had outdated information but I dunno.

Did they specify which games/platforms or just Virtual Console in general? I'd suggest playing the cheapest game available to test it, but I've never had any problems with NES, N64 and GBA emulations.

Edit because "specify specific" sounds wrong

I don't think so, but I saw a gif demonstrating the lag on a mario game.

My problem is I wanna get a Wii U for this reason (and a couple other games), so if I could I'd just buy a cheap game and test it I would, but I gotta buy a Wii U first.

I'd say go for it, simply because I don't think it's an issue and there are even some Wii/Wii U games that I'd recommend you play as well as the Virtual console. Do you have a HDTV or an older one? I hear HD's may be causing some input lag.

I have an HDTV which also worries me, but I kinda feel like it wont really matter that much unless I play a game like Punch Out

I dunno man, it's your call.

why is my life so hard ;_;

You chose expert difficulty before you were born, didn't you.

I havent noticed any. Then again, I havent played any games where it would really matter. If you're thinking of getting any old school platformers, I'd probably look into it more, but as far as rpgs or whatever, VC is perfect.

Also depending on what games you intend on playing, maybe a SNES would be cheaper. I got one with Yoshi's Island and Super Mario All Stars + Super Mario World for $250 AU in 2013.

Don't play NES or N64 games, the former is blurry and the latter is darker than the original games because MUH MOTION SICKNESS.
