If games never advanced technologically, we'd all be still playing on a Game Boy. The answer is simple - games need to advance, and of course, so do the consoles that play them.

Nintendo wanted more advanced games than what the Game Boy was able to play, and so Game Boy Colour, and then Game Boy Advance games came out. There's no way a regular Game Boy can support a game like Pokemon Emerald, which is why the consoles had to be upgraded too.

The 3DS is just the latest link in the chain. The games it plays are too advanced for the DSi to play. If the DSi could play them, then there'd be no need for the 3DS.

Why is it that when a gaming company makes a new system they stop making games for the old system?

Typically the company that makes the system doesn't make the game. IE Sony and Microsoft make systems while SquareEnix and Rockstar Games make the actual games. The reason they stop making it for the older systems is because there is more money involved in making it on the new system. A newer system provides better technologies for the game so the company can make it better on a new system. A better game sells more. The other factor that comes into play is that the longer a system is out, the more the price of games drop for it. Games will sell for around 20$ for an old system and around 50$ on a new system. A game won't be sold for 50$ on an older system because someone with that system will more likely buy 2 older games they haven't played and pocket the extra 10$. In conclusion... Money is the answer.


Do geman n64 games work on American n64 systems?

Yes Goeman games work on the N64 for American Systems. To make sure you have the correct cartridge, look on the back of games for NAL - this means North American and will work for your N64. However PAL and JPN will not work unless you have that specific game system.
