Video Game General

I loved that movie. I heard that this game was terrible though.

@Jarkes  
The game probable was Terrible. I have no idea why I kept renting it. kids are dumb.

@Great Azyrite  
Kids nevers notice when a game is bad, only when its boring.

@MadVillain  

 
Fun fact, the same people behind this game went on to make Syphon Filter and later on Uncharted.

@Great Azyrite  

 
This has to do with their plug n’ play thing, I don’t think any of the minicades are under scrutiny.

Sony is threatening third parties to keep quiet about censoring games, or they’ll cut ties with them.
 
PS3 era Sony is back.

@Background Pony #02F9  
That’s why Nintendo is doing better. If you uncensored content, get Nintendo.

@ExtreVile
 
It’s ridiculous. Even Nintendo’s policies during the 90’s (or some of the stuff that was going on a few years ago) were never THIS bad.

@Jarkes
 
It’s like when Nintendo bullied third parties during the NES-SNES days.

@Background Pony #02F9
 
Except a hundred times worse.

@Jarkes  
I think the people who are mostly getting fucked over by Sony, are Japanese game developers.

I wouldn’t be surprise if some cut ties with Sony in protest.

At least MK11 actually chose to change certain character designs rather than it being enforced censorship.

I loved their old official Player’s Guides. They’re not like the expensive boring ones nowadays. They were colorful, had fun writing/remarks, gave you more insight on a game, had well done maps, and even rare official character/enemy artwork in them.
 
Of course, I doubt they could release their Killer Instinct, or Chrono Trigger ones due to licensing/legal issues.
 
@Cyborg_pony  

 
But if somebody used their games to make the emulator, shouldn’t that mean they’re free to use it, as somebody basically took their property/games first, (making it more of a grey area issue) or is this one that can be used for any arcade, and is basically them stealing somebody else’s software?
 
That said, they should’ve hired M2 to help them make their joystick logo game device thing, like Sega is with their upcoming Sega Genesis Mini. (Which unlike the mediocre AtGames devices, has better emulation, AND officially licensed third-party games from Konami & Disney so far) M2 has been really good with ports/remakes.
 
@Cyborg_pony  
Yeah, the 1up arcades, and the mini tabletop arcades seem fine.
 
Some hackers oddly found hidden extra games in those toy Basic Fun arcade games. Like “Joust” actually has “Defender” in it’s data, however they apparently never got to rerelease that one separately, due to losing license for it from Midway/Warner Brothers.
 
That said, Basic Fun’s recently released Galaga & Dig-Dug games are almost arcade perfect despite how small they are. They’re awesome!

@Beau Skunky  
I’m not entirely sure.

If Switch had good online, I’d say it’d be a perfect console.

@Background Pony #02F9  
Would need backward compatibility too

Also, Nintendo is preparing to enter the Chinese market.

@Background Pony #02F9  
Joy.

If they succeed, they can get a massive head start in sales over the PS5 and Scarlett.

@Background Pony #02F9  
I’ve heard that the Chinese market involves a lot of censorship.

With the Switch, Nintendo fixed one of their biggest problems: Their lack of third party support.

Full Ursine Grandmaster set acquired.

@Beau Skunky  
Some of them were even sort of like stories, especially the Zelda guides.
