Classic Game Downloads Free On Revolution

via 4colorrebellion.com:

NOA vice president George Harrison confirmed that downloading classic NES, SNES and N64 titles on the Revolution will be free.

I dont understand the reasoning behind this…but I cant say Im complaining. I love free stuff. That said though, I know that many people, myself included, would pay a small fee for each game. Nintendo will also have to be careful as to how many games they are offering so that people dont simply play old games and not buy any new Revolution software.

I'm definetely getting a Nintendo Revolution. I'll get the XBOX 360 this fall, and then the Nintendo at lauch. There are a ton of old N64, SNES and NES games I'm dying to play again, like the first 007 game and every Mario Kart game. This is going to rule.
