I mean, it makes sense, but even as the sycophant I am I worry about Monopolies. I feel like all the emulation companies will end up under a single point of failure at this rate. Who's even left? Code Mystics?

@PKDuckman Yeah, that tracks too

It's cosmicly hilarious that Deep Silver and THQNordic have essentially swapped roles: Plaion has the most prosperous retro operation in Gaming, while THQNordic mostly just makes Eurojank now outside of Purple Lamp

Good for them that they can develop and publish themselves again.

Who announces a game on LinkedIn????

@Guru_Larry Okay so I'm not insane and the name is madness inducing. It must be what the game is called in Korea

@GeeTea Ah, Butasan Indid have okay. So there's games I never learned the western names too... crap

...what the heck is Pig's & Bomber's and why is it not already on my sheet?

Notice how none of them are President. That's cause they all answer directly to Clear River now instead of that nitwit Josh

The sub-line is the most self-destructive thing I've seen on the Internet

EA is terrible for a massive amount of reasons, but they really were declared the worst for a very very VERY stupid reason when, compared to other American companies, espcially at the time, they were Mr. Rogers.

@gojiguy Ah. So the Interplay Special. Gonna be interesting to see if the IP end up at Hamster or City Connection when whatever geezer that's keeping the dream alive finally corks it. I say that about Seibu and Treasure, cause Treasure in it's current state is just sad, man.

@gojiguy I... see. They're all published by something called KMBOX now, (though I think Zerodiv was always the developer of the emulator) who look to be a... Chinese small form computer manufacturer?

Can someone explain to me how Seibu Kaihatsu is still slive?

@gojiguy Citation?

No seriously, I'd love a source that casue I've found nothing on PSiKYO 's legal status in English.

As far as I'm aware, PSiKYO is a division/brand under City Connection now, so the Jaleco games make perfect sense.

Of course his name is Brandon

@NatiaAdamo Man, it seems so weird that there was a time Call of Duty had art and passion put into it.

...Mega Cat is a LOT more prolific than I thought they were, and I'm not entirely sure they count as indie because of that.

Also, someone tell me how wrong I am on this but isn't H.E.R.O. on of, if not THE most expensive 2600 cartridges cause it somehow never got re-released on any of the comps before?

Oh that's nice. It did better than expected

That is indeed a Jet Set Radio Golfing spin-off

The reason all this is happening is because Sony apparently only ever owned the games, never the characters of Parappa. Original creator Rodney retained everything else

@Sketcz ....

Nope, still lost

I don't know what Culdcept is and I'll never understand, but Am obligated to point out that since it's the Clarice engine porting the first game, the new one is also being published by City Connection physically. True cartridge, just like Rushing Beat, and the relationship with LRG's much cooler European cousin remains stonger than ever as Begins is planned for a world wide simultaneous physical release.

@PKDuckman I said Seems.

Although, I'm surprised this beat that Shmup they were making to be the first of their "numbered" releases.

This is done by M2 while Digital Eclipse seems to have done Bomberman

Huh... that's one of those things you feel like was always there. Just by default

That... is a THQNordic IP. At least, it was the last time I checked.

Me thinks there was an IP fore sale at one point, though wouldn't they be line items on the IR reports? I'll have to remove this and Delta Force later.

Thanks, Klemens

@LowDefAl That's what I said. They are inventing new platforms just for SNK, City Connection, and Atari to port old ROMa too

The lengths SNK goes to to find new ways to port their old games is impressive, if a bit distressing

Synergy Connection

Doug is well passed the point of crashing the plane with no survivors

@dustinprewitt Okay, now I know you're talking out your arse becasue Kansas City's never HAD a Jasper's.

@PopetheRev28 They changed their name, but the point is Kansas City still plays by the old rules.

This may look weird to you, but it's standard practice in Kansas City. Mob town rules

No one ever thought to take one of these things apart before?

Big talk coming from someone that lives in an Orwellian hell state

Swery presents

@NatiaAdamo The mystery confounds

@NatiaAdamo I aim for consistency. Also, what the hell happened with slider and Quick_Man up there?

I may hate the NFL and my government, but there's no greater sense of pride I feel as an American than the times when I get to correct the British:

It's JUST FOOTBALL. There is only one Football.

The two genders are Football, and INCORRECT.

USA! USA!

@NatiaAdamo SQL Database

@slider1983 I'm not saying they aren't. I'm just saying, it explains why he did that. The exiting of a CEO, let alone a founder, is a long bureicratic process that requires transtional ceremony and what-not; at least when the exit isn't via cops and/or a 20 story window

@bobrocks95 ...Oh right, I forgot what site I'm on. The one that's half the reason that 7200+ in my living room exists in the first place.

Still, I'm surprised anyone on this site would roll the dice with LRG's re-pro carts. Figured everyone here would be a bit more... diserning

Well that explains why that Nickelodeon collection has the "Mighty Rabbit" logo in it since that's Josh's corporate Identity (Note to self, take all the Mighty Rabbit stuff out of the Spreadsheet. And burn it) so that means he wants to make sure he gets his paycheck for that. Same reason he bought all those FMV games personally, rather than on Embracer's dime
Speaking of, I've removed all that Mighty Rabbit crap that was questionable to begin with afrom my spreadsheet. It's now just Plumbers Don't Wear Ties and Little Samson. Embracer is now once again shorter than Konami; cause I don't know where to even start with the Dark Horse crap, nor do I want to.
With the Fellowship Shuffle happening this year they'll most likely be shuffled directly under GOE and/or Aspyr, meaning LRG will FINALLY have someone with a compitent understanding of logistical priority.

@slider1983 You're despicable, you know that?

I find it funny, if a bit frustrating that this escaped Atari Groovy-posting containment, and most people's reactions are STILL "Atari's still a thing"?

YES! DID YOU NOT SEE THE BUBSY AND MORTAL KOMBAT?!

There's this one guy on the Atsri forums who's been hyping up Atari's tinyBuild connection like it's what's going to take Atari's stock value to the moon.

If this is all that relationship ends up amounting too I am going to lauch my ass, sorry arse, off to how fuming he's going to be.

Holy Crap, it's the original Earthbound clone
