Now if they’d just release the 2005 era Sega Ages remakes of Phantasy Star 1 and 2.

While I can’t fault them for not releasing on the Vita (given that it would be impossible to do so per Sony’s decisions) there’s some shady stuff going on with the kickstarter.
Stretch goals are being cut of the project to be sold as DLC, backer exclusive content is probably going to be sold as dlc, the publisher is…

The cooperative effort against increasing location based threats reminds me of Discworld The Witches boardgame.

I think there are some awards you can only qualify for with a theatrical release.  There may have been contractual obligations as well.

That Babylon 5 reference came out of nowhere to knock me into laughter.  Well played.

I didn’t rush out to see Solo for exactly this reason. If, when I redbox Solo, I really like it, I’ll see the next one in theaters. But TLJ knocked the franchise out of must see day one status.

I don’t know that anyone is married to the console as a device, but it seems unlikely that graphically demanding games will be played by anything other than specialized hardware unless significant strides are made by streaming services.

While continued updates for the game might require cash, server maintenance seems strange.  Presumably PSN fees pay that?

Hmm... still no Grant.
Also, Dracula’s build up seems a bit much. It raises the stakes, but pointlessly so, and becomes silly as a trade off.
In a world without humans, what will the Vampires eat?
I seem to recall Dracula not being terribly fond of humans before his wife. Why didn’t he pursue this agenda previously?
I…

Well, they weren’t putting it in the game, so it had to go somewhere.  ::rimshot::

I think this may already exist (somewhat) in the difference between short and long term capital gains tax.

Next, Picollo pre fusion with Kami and Picollo pre fusion with Nail?

Human Instrumentality starts at the ankles, apparently.

Rotten Fish Mace is a hero for our times!

Do you ever encounter any of his former companions to recruit?  Like a super wizard, etc?

I can’t speak to the Spanish speaking market, but the Big 3 is used in Japan to refer to the three most popular Weekly Shounen Jump titles. While this has of course varied over time, the Big 3 consisting of One Piece, Naruto, and Bleach persisted for a very long time. Market dynamics have changed somewhat since then…

The last of the Big 3 is waning.

Well... perhaps companies aren’t doing it now.... but they’ve done it in the past. The Toshiba Satellite series of the early 2000's, for example. To your point, in most cases cooling was inadequate and many of the systems were either crippled by bios updates or eventually broke from heating related problems.

Also, there is a good will cost associated with not providing some solution. Other games with similar features may find it harder to benefit from them now that their relatively short life is apparent.  Again, that’s a hard to quantify value.

The ROI investment is a definite question, though not doing it essentially negates future returns from the investment in developing the now walled off unlocks. It would be difficult to quantify that value though.
As to man hours, development should be trivial, more time would be spent recertifying the new patch.…
