Realistically this is all a rehash of a cycle that’s happened before and will likely repeat again.

The whole series is great! Season 3 in particular, where their budget got slashed and had to be extra creative in ways that only enhanced the intentionally-absurd-for-laughs qualities that some confuse for actual crappiness. Also Yvonne Craig (RIP) is the babiest of bat babes, bar none.

“Is there anyone that wouldn’t buy the game if no changes were made?”

Yes. And NoA knows this, so they localize accordingly. Nintendo is a trusted family brand, much akin to Disney, and their business decisions reflect this.

Stuff gets changed in international releases for *every* single medium you mention. Books get banned, music gets banned, and those who would be banned often only get accepted in due to (surprise!) localization. Or, because of the passage of time. One need only look at Mein Kampf’s rerelease in Germany for that one, or…

The coolest thing since Leon’s hair flip in RE2's intro.

As someone else has already pointed out, he wasn’t saying hashtag allgamers. It’s an observation that, whenever Nintendo does anything that doesn’t suck off gamers (and gamers only), there is always an angry vocal contingent that demands to have their dick sucked and exclusively their dick sucked, forever.

Whenever…

No one will care, except for a small vocal contingent who don’t understand how business actually works. Otherwise Link’s Crossbow Training, Mario Teaches Typing/Early Years, Yoshi’s Topsy-Turvy/Island 2, several Pokemon titles, the Philips CDi games, and so on and so forth would have sunk their respective franchises…

Dig just isn’t very good by LEC standards and should be #14, FOTA’s second half is Sierra dream logic trash and deserves no better than #8 for it, Full Throttle should be lower due to it being 15 minutes long (though it is a personal fave), and S&M + SOMI should be switched. Other than that, solid list.

Someday, you’ll find more worthwhile things to get righteously indignant about. I’m sure of it. Life is just too short to get worked up about stuff this minor in the grand scheme of things.

I mean, I have zero investment in this game whatsoever, but if you’d just dialed down the hyper-hyperbolic bullshit down a few…

Your own insecurities may be leading you to see things that aren’t actually present, while simultaneously blinding you to the things that are right in front of your face. Fascinating, albeit common, phenomenon.

Actually you can, provided it’s not an OTA channel or that it’s after 10pm. “Censorship” on cable channels is merely there because a lack of it tends to alienate more viewers than it adds, not to mention can lead to actually-bad publicity from a brand standpoint.

If you do, I sincerely & supportively hope that you take the comments here pointing out the fairly obviously red flags you missed to heart. What you’re suggesting to do has been done before by millions of different people in hundreds of thousands of different ways- while Kickstarter is a relatively new concept,…

I say this every time there’s a Konami-related article like this, I wish more would at least acknowledge the Yakuza’s involvement with the company. Which isn’t necessarily new for them or any gaming company (especially those in/around Osaka, and ESPECIALLY ones there who historically specialized more in arcade…

Derp. As with all things, complaints should be looked at on a CbC basis for validity, not just dismissed out of hand just because it’s anything other than praise.

Dead in the water.

They may, eventually. For now, doing so would be largely pointless, even counterproductive. PLUS EVEN IF THEY DID, there would still be a very vocal contingent who are so invested in their beliefs that they won’t believe anything told to them by anyone other their own (supposedly more enlightened) kind. Guaranteed.…

GOSH DANG IT, WHEN WILL PEOPLE REALIZE WE ALREADY HAD A [swear word]ING DREAMCAST 2: THE ORIGINAL XBOX. THIS HAS BEEN DOCUMENTED THOROUGHLY, EVEN ON THIS VERY WEBSITE, YET APPARENTLY NO ONE KNOWS THIS SO I HAVE TO TYPE IN SCREAMING ALL CAPS.

“Reserve Not Met”

I think you’ve hit upon the perfect summary of Miller: amazing concepts, lamentable execution.

Says someone who has clearly never been to a modern gambling hall, or who completely fails to understand the appeal of such as an Alien vs. Predator or Star Wars slot machine. Familiarity is always a safe bet, and tapping into familiar-but-still-technically-niche interests tends to be a great way to not just make…
