@PopetheRev28 Switch and PC are last gen? Runs on PS5 via backwards compatibility, so I'm failing to see how it's last gen only.
@KitsuneNight SNK published this, so they have no bearing on Fighting Jam getting published. BTW, I can't stop watching your profile pic gif. It's very... animated...
@NEStalgia It was even crazy back then. That's why stores didn't carry the game. That's why it was censored on PS2. It has nothing to do with "over-censored political correctness." Only Acclaim would've pulled a stunt like this for shock value; it wasn't the only time either. They were desperate because they were on the verge of bankruptcy.
@Hyena Riiiight. You play for the "gameplay and music." And people go to Hooters for the wings. 😏
@CasePB That's not specific to just games today. Plenty of games throughout the years have been all look and no substance.
@MarkyVigoroth Same here. I loved BMX 2, so I'm bummed to hear we missed out on it.
@Chocoburger You took me off guard with the "first person shooter" comment. Really? Weird.
@Chocoburger Really makes think I should create my own branding agency. I get paid big bucks even though my client doesn't end up using anything I came up with? Sounds awesome.
@foodmetaphors Is it really that amazing? The names don't sell the product. The product does. How many video game system actually had a good name? There's not a whole lot.
Maybe it's because I was born in the early 90s, so I was too young to appreciate it, but the og Game Boy did nothing for me. Imo, most of the good games were just simplified versions of games I could play better versions of on home consoles. Pokémon is one of the only exclusives that stands out to me.
I feel like the Game Boy Advance was a huge step up from the GB. It still had console ports, but there were a lot of creative games like Boktai and Drill Dozer, plus the always reliable Pokémon and Mega Man Battle Network games.
I think I put the most time into DS and 3DS though. It continued the original ideas that were on GBA, but with the added touch screen and 3D graphics. I had to randomly pick between DS and 3DS.
PSP was fine, but the game library just couldn't stack up with the DS. Never owned a Vita (plan to buy one soon), but I feel the library didn't stack up with the 3DS. I don't think it helped that Sony basically abandoned support as soon as the PS4 took off.
Switch is great too, but I feel like it's still too soon to consider it as the best.

I'm fine with my OEM shell. I do want to do the GDEmu mod though.

Re: $150 Handheld MiSTer With AMOLED Screen Starts To Take Shape
@nocdaes I want the accuracy of FPGA without needing to spend tons of money on carts. Software emulation on other devices is not the same.

@Bonggon5 Agreed. Same here.

I used to love HPB, then I started seeing more and more of these ridiculous prices. Nowadays, Gamestop's used prices don't seem so bad.

Re: To Make Sense Of Xbox Multiplatform Rumours, We Need Only Look To The Past
@UK_Kev
PS5 isn't selling at a loss now. It's breaking even.
Also, why is a 10th gen handheld crazy? It's most likely what Microsoft is doing. Nintendo is probably doing a system similar to the Switch too.
