Re: Sega Plans To Revive Even "More" Legacy Franchises

MeatSauce

I’ve been shocked at how excited people are about this seeing its sega and they have a legacy of screwing stuff up for decades. I say this as someone who had a genesis over snes,game gear or game boy, got a saturn before PS1 & N64, and had a dreamcast.

Re: Feature: Game Boy Color - A Quarter Century Of Colour Nintendo Handhelds

GBC was my 1st Gameboy. I never had any interest in the original gameboy as a child it was rare we got many games so I didn’t want to waste an opportunity to get a new console game over a subpar handheld one.

In late 98 I was getting way more games. I got a n64 in october and my parents promised to get me ocarina of time for christmas. They forgot to preorder and couldn’t find it for christmas. As a make good my mom bought me a gbc with link’s awakening and that thing went everywhere with me.

@cainswo You would have hated gaming marketing in the 90’s. Waiting years sometimes over 5 years for a game zero trailers just the occasional screenshot in a magazine that was already several months old by the time it came out. Time moved way slower back then it was excruciating waiting 6 or 7 years for the next Mario & Zelda

If you got a release window it was rarely kept alot of times you didn’t know a game was released until you saw it in a store. I remember in 95 the gaming mags were pushing sega saturn coming out in september but it released in may but the magazines covering that news didn’t come out until july or august.

@Paraka People that are american football fans usually want the NFL brand with real players or NCAA College Football made up leagues with fake players usually don’t sell much outside of a very niche fan. I do miss the late 90’s early 2000’s when you’d have like 5 to 7 nfl games every year including Gameday,Xtreme,Street,The Sega Sports NFL series and Quarterback Club.

Re: EA Is Encouraging Families To Set Up Parental Controls This Summer

@GrailUK Toys R Us did a Back to School gaming sale in 1996 its how I got my Sega Saturn. Companies have been doing this for decades it’s nothing new parents bribe kids into getting good grades with new games or systems. In 96 I was an honors student. In 98 I got a PS1 & N64 and was a high honors student.

@Kiyata Only difference seems to be this new version includes Bust a move branding which the prior version didn’t. I’m partial to bust a move as that’s what it was called when I first played these games on my sega saturn back in the day.

Re: Soapbox: If Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom Isn’t Switch’s Swan Song, It Really Should Be

I will never understand people being obsessed with power & performance but owning a switch and constantly complaining about it. The switch was old tech when it released in 2017 maybe it just isn’t for you cause there are tons of more powerful options in the gaming space. I knew what I was getting when I bought my switch and I love the thing.

If I cared about power & performance I wouldn’t have bought one. I have way more powerful consoles that I barely play cause while they are pretty & powerful that isn’t why I play games those more powerful systems are kinda soulless and to me those games aren’t that fun.

I’ve played a ton of TOTK the last couple days and I haven’t thought about 4k/60fps once and I’ve been hooked. I’ve never enjoyed any PS5 game to this level.

Re: Poll: So, Will You Be Getting The Legend Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom?

MeatSauce

@teamdave2002 I got a n64 as an early christmas present in october 1998 because I needed Ocarina of Time & WCW/NWO Revenge. My mom promised to preorder Ocarina of Time but she didn’t and we couldn’t find a copy until after christmas. Both my mom & the chubby bearded guy from the north pole dropped the ball big time that year.
