@Serialsid Except for the fact that the last reliable sources on Series sales are from 2021. Europe has been historically been one of the key regions where the PS brand sell really well.
I'm glad you're enjoying PSVR2 but for many others it's just an add on, and I've heard plenty of good things about the Series controller as well, especially the Elite 2.
There are plenty of legitimate criticisms about the way Jim Ryan is running the company, including shutting down Japan Studio, refusing to greenlight the Days Gone sequel for not getting good enough reviews, the ridiculous backflipping on cross-platform play, promoting censorship that even Nintendo allowed to pass. And instead of fighting with MS over COD, how about actually reviving Killzone which is one of the most distinct shooters of the PS3 era?
@Serialsid Keep convincing yourself that. Both consoles were constrained by chip shortages and Xbox hasn't brought out its heavy guns yet. You can't survive on goodwill from last gen alone, and the Series X is fantastic as an emulator box.
@Krisi The annoying thing is that it doesn't contain all the games, especially the ones by UPL instead of Jaleco. Ninja Kid and Ninja Kid 2 all had NES ports which aren't included, as well as Ninja Taro for GB, which apparent is a better Zelda clone than the NES one.
@Fizza The NSO game is actually the odd one out since the rest of the Ninja Kun games are side scrolling platformers. It's pretty much the Mario Bros to Super Mario Bros. Interestingly one of the NES games is pretty much a SMB3 ripoff.
@KindofaBigDeal LMAO. MS brought all of their XB1 era games to PC, and is still supporting Minecraft to multiple platforms, even though they have the right to make it Xbox/PC exclusive. And they're the one promoting cross platform play, while Sony's the one trying to wall off their network.
@PoorGeno It doesn't change the fact that the average pay rate for CEOs rose by 1322% since 1978. Are you suggesting that they are doing working 1322% harder? LOL
@kingbk Wow, so wanting to paid fairly is apparently "SJW" now. What do you think trade unions do? I hope you work for the rest of your life in a non-unionized, at will employment workplace without complaining, because otherwise that makes you a SJW.
Oh please. Captain Lou was doing Mario's voice long before Charles Martinet, and he actually sounds like an Italian plumber, not some series of high pitched squicks. Martinet's voice is okay for a few short sentences in a video game, not a two hour movie.
@PoorGeno "CEOs are hard-working (and hard-headed)."
LOL. I'm sure Bobby Kotick totally deserve the million dollar bonuses he gave himself, and not the employees he fired for making Crash Bandicoot 4 a success.
@RiasGremory That doesn't automatically make the game good, nor is having tricky platforms and the infamous underwater level. I'm sure "patience" can also get you through the NES's worst platformers/shooters like Conan and Silver Surfer.
Have to disagree with the review on one thing: there's no way TMNT 1 on NES is better than TMNT 3. It's a horribly designed platformer that won't even let your turtles swim. Enough said.
@Aya-chan It was the early 90s, and since many back then still viewed video games as kids' toys, Hoskins wasn't in the target demographic.
Plus the NES wasn't as big as in the UK (where Hoskins was from) as it was in the USA due to a botched distribution deal with Mattel, and home computers and Sega consoles were more popular then.
At this stage I'd prefer Hamster to port the game along with Visco's other Neo Geo games. QUByte is just trolling people at the stage.
Also I found it surprising that this game still have a tournament scene, out of the numerous Neo Geo fighting games. World Heroes Perfect IIRC is on the same boat.
@anoyonmus If you're so concerned about your info being stolen you might as well stay away from F2P games. And I'm more concerned about my info being taken by my own government than a foreign one who can't affect me one bit.
