Honestly, this is a seemingly backwards approach and kind of hurts my head. Here’s what you do, unless you’re just looking for validation from people who’ve already done what you’re trying to do (and who already do it better), which you won’t get much of in the speedrun community:

Pick a game you like. Keep in mind,…

Not a hand. Haven’t y’all ever seen a horizontal Brazilian?

That T is fucking the shit out of that P.

Yeah, for all the whinging, it really does seem obvious that few of the whingers are familiar with what Japanese game release lists actually look like. I don’t mean just Pachinko games, but also just games in general. Especially Konami’s games.

In America, we never got most of Konami’s shameless cash grab games, so we…

Ball Eater might be more accurate.

Shame it isn’t still 1997- Solid Snake Ate My Balls! would have been the hottest thing going on GeoCities.

And if that happens, people will eventually come back to it after its release and realize that it’s actually pretty okay for what it is. I mean, if it really follows the DNF path, which was at least a 7/10 if you’re down with old-school shooting with new-school twists.

No matter how big the “demand” is (and it’s probably a lot smaller than you think!), it is generally a safe marketing estimation that for each individual barrier to entry, your estimated audience size (based on “demand” combined with conjecture based on broader market research) gets slashed in half. Making it cost…

Don’t worry- much like the universe itself, Nintendo’s next game will surely revolve entirely around you.

Play hard.

Politely, fuck those people. That is all.

No need for unasked-for platitudes or moral high-grounding on this one. It is what it is: justifiable piracy. Especially as the Saturn will likely never be emulated accurately with full compatibility. Ultimately no different from anything else technically-illegal that we justify to ourselves, at least when that…

Of course, to her phone, it just looked like this.

We already have that. Multiple of that. GoFundMe is the main one, though I’m sure there’s countless others sites of the “please help me pay my bills so that i can survive” variety. Granted, there’s no economic incentive for the donor as you’re suggesting, but it wouldn’t be long before private predatory lending gets…

Hey I don’t know if anyone has mentioned this, but did you mean ‘ruin’?

That’s Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter, you absolute idiot.

Eyeroll.

The bigger you become, person or business, the bigger target you become for big money lawsuits. It never fails to amaze me how few seem to realize this basic reality.

Ono? Is that you?

So it’s true to the series. Awesome.
