It’s not really a bad take when its in fact true. Nintendo constantly infuriats its fan, but videos of their games still gets clicks, regardless of your opinion on the game or the channels showcasing the video.

Buy? I thought this book was being limited to the ones who purchased the Limited Edition of the game?

Except it’s quite easy for a Playstation owner to insert their discs into a Xbox to verify their games. As for PSP and Vita, as well as Nintendo’s GameCube, Wii and Wii U however... that might not be that easy.

“These brands are too niche to be able to sell on multiple console platforms” comes to mind...

Just make sure to lower the volume.

What’s he on about? The only way I can listen to it for free (well, outside having to pay for electricity and internet access) is by pirating it. Any other way, I have to pay a subscription to listen to it, endure ads between tracks, or actually buy the album...

The only company I know that actively sold consoles, as well as made their games available on other consoles were Hudson soft, with their lines of the TurboGrafx. I dont remember anyone before or after did that.

During most of the Xbox 360/One and PS3/PS4, Sony and Microsoft has ignored Nintendo, as they weren’t “playing at the same ballpark” (hardware so weak it cant even be considered “current-gen console”... even if they both tried to emulate the Wii-mote)

For publishers, the mobile devices are a huge enough chunk of their economy for it to be pushed aside so that two companies can flex their sad muscles...

I think the “load more comments” is an issue with the “show pending”, as I dont use an adblocker on firefox desktop (at work), but the load more text doesnt appear again until i reload the page.

Until a few years ago, Microsoft gladly ignored Nintendo as well, so why shouldnt Sony (or FTC) keep doing that?

Yea, going around a vulcanic area without already having the “Barrier” suit turned on was just dumb.

I don’t think many people play Zelda for the horror-survival aspect, so I wonder how well the game would have sold. I would probably have bought it, but i doubt I would want to complete it.

What 3rd party have Sony made things worse with? There’s nothing anti-consumer working with 3rd party developers to co-develop PS-exclusive games. If they were really stingy, then games like Spyro and Crash Bandicott would still be PS-exclusive games, just like they were during the PS1-era. But what happened to those?…

The fuse ability defintely explained why some section in the latest trailer looked like that car-building Banjo & Kazooie game XD

I don’t remember how I learned it, but Jump-attacks (or rather, attacking just a few frames before landing) has to be the cheesiest attack in gaming history. 9 out of 10 times the knights always puts their shield towards the floor, because when players land, Link is usually always in the low position, so they never…

What situation was that?

Considering the Bottle Ship (the Other M version), was meant to copy most of the Zebes planets environments, the level design might be on point XD.

Or smaller publishers like Falcom who kept running at their own pace, releasing the Ys and Legends of Heroes at their own leasure.

Even if I’d exclude the SE games and most items being DLC-related, that was a little more than I thought. Most of the them were games I don’t care for, so I guess I never noticed that.
