@drykho That's true if 1/3 of a standard direct was just 1 game it would be kinda weird. I meant condense this direct into like 2 or 3 min trailer. (although for the record i'm not a fan of single game directs)
@MysteryCupofJoe In all fairness when i played New Super Mario bros. My sister would get a higher jump by jumping on my Toad head and sending me to my demise
I think a big problem is how fast studios will announce a game. There was no need to announce prime 4 when it was just a logo. I do kinda get it for indie teams since most just make 1 game at a time, so complete silence would be a bit weird.
0p for family. Not that suprising. With friends you share more interest and when alone you can do what you want without asking others if they want to as well.
@DwaynesGames That makes sense. I always thought it was for parents. The branding showing this is popular and cheap thus making it an easy gift for their kids. But now most parents are more familiar with games so this kinda branding wasn't as usefull anymore.
I think if nintendo wants less complaints about greed they could bring back Nintendo Selects. They probably don't want to do for 1 mil+ sold. So maybe instead do it for older games to make the series more approachable. Like Fire Emblem or Xenoblade.
"this masterpiece from Kazutaka Kodaka remains my favourite game of the year" i agree 100%. Hundred line sticks with me. It's been months and i still think about it daily.
I feel like AI is becoming the next 'Trolley problem'. People will say "it's bad if used for X but it's fine if used for Y" when both options could effect someones livelyhood.
For example i often hear its fine for filing tax paper work. But this can effect the livelyhood of accountants.
I kinda get why netflix didn't think about the games division. They make mostly shows. They would probably prefer to license out their properties to game developers instead, like how Disney does it.
For me its Hundred Line. Honestly the past year had some real good games like Silksong and Bananza. But... Hundred Line just stayed with me even after beating i kept thinking about it for months now.

Or definitive editions for those games.
