Sega tried this already in the late '00s with their "Play Sega" service. It failed miserably.
Unless they're prepared to make all new Mega Drive/Genesis / Master System / Saturn / Dreamcast games, they need to realize that anyone who would be interested in a service like this will be fully away aware that the company has been out of the game for so long, that even the most basic of hardware can perfectly emulate their entire library.
So, what about that story about Dragon Quest III being so popular, they released it at the weekend, so people wouldn't bunk off work/school to play it?
These scumbags have already scammed me once, not sending me any product or even responding to my emails. They can go ***** themselves with a teatnus infected chainsaw if they expect any further money.
@Grumblevolcano Oh, Microsoft aren't fools, they know where money is, hence why they still make Minecraft for every system available and they're still releasing Bethesda games for the PS4 and PS5.
So if they buy Sega, they'd still make games for other systems guaranteed.
I purchased several of these games, but not one ever came up as free for me. What a con, total misleading advertising. Never buying a Qubic title ever again.

Re: Retro: The Anticlimactic Quest To Find The Person Behind Metroid's Most Famous 'Cheat Code'
In all fairness, no one has ever heard from Chris Houlihan, the guy whose name is in the secret room in Zelda: Link to the Past.

Re: Best Of 2019: Why You'll Never Get To Play Your Favourite Retro Game On Switch
Isn't Cfaldi the p***k who endlessly whines about YouTubers on his Twitter account? Then sniffs his own farts over how superior he is?
Nasty human being.

Re: 23 Years On, And We Still Can't Believe This Classic SNES RPG Didn't Get A US Release
Oh boo hoo, we never got Chrono Trigger, Earthbound or Super Mario RPG.
Re: Hundreds Of Fake NES Mini Consoles Seized By Anti-Counterfeiting Taskforce In The US
I bought one from a stall in Great Yarmouth last year, they're just the same old Famiclones from the '90s put in a small NES shaped box.
They don't even have HDMI.

Re: Takashi Iizuka Believes The Blue Blur Has "Turned A Corner" Following The Release Of Sonic Mania
@Maxz Yeah, there were a TON of 8-Bit Sonic games for the Master System and Game Gear.
Re: Takashi Iizuka Believes The Blue Blur Has "Turned A Corner" Following The Release Of Sonic Mania
...So like Sonic Generations before, we shall ignore what the fans want from a Sonic game and shove out poorly realized 3D rubbish.

Re: Review: Saints Row: The Third - The Full Package - The Next Best Thing To Grand Theft Auto On Switch?
People make fun of Bethesda porting Skyrim to everything imaginable, but Saints Row III is ever worse!
Re: A New Earthworm Jim Is Coming, But There's A Rather Large Catch
Don't worry, it'll soon get ported when there's not enough sales.
But Tommy Talarico owns Intellevision, that's the reason it's exclusive ATM.
Re: Rumour: This Year's 'Budget' Switch Could Take The 2DS Route And Ditch A Killer Feature
