@link3710 Nope. 2 years.

It were exclusive on Stadia at first.
I have it installed on PC, Switch, Xbox One and PS4, and i also have it on Stadia.
In fact i played it only on Stadia back when it were exclusive.

I made this video 100% on CD32 console in June 1996. PS1 and Saturn could never do this back then, and they could never run SCALA later either.

@Dezzy70 Yeah. In fact all 3 is quite different when it comes to 1st party games.
None of them is the best as it depends what you like to play.

• Ignoring PS3 where Sony covered any genre, Sony have mostly since PS4 launched focused on single player story games, a bit action and not that much else anymore.
  On PS3 Sony also focused hard on FPS, Racing and obscure games like Wonderbook, Puppeteer, Eye Toy etc. Sadly not anymore.
• Microsoft is focuses on variety. Flight Simulator, Forza, Gears/Halo, Fable, RPG, Strategy, Simulation, Open World action etc. MS don't make much sports, if any at all. They leave that to EA etc.
• Nintendo cover most of Microsoft genres, but also have sports games and games like Wario Ware, Pokemon, Animal Crossing and Captain toad among others things.

Xbox is only a small part of Microsoft, and that is why the started with Game Pass to expand the market.
Game Pass would even be on Swith and Sony consoles if they didn't refuse.
Game Pass can be played with Cloud, TV Stick, TV App, Media boxes, PC, Web browsers, Tablets, Phones, Xbox consoles etc.
Game Pass is available for billions already, but majority never heard about Game Pass and don't even know how Cloud works.

In fact 99% probably don't know that Xbox Gamepads can be paired directly with Tablets, Phones, TV's, Media boxes etc.

Personally i'm mainly a PC gamer for many reasons.
I use heavy video apps etc, but can also play any new game on max settings, 165hz etc.
Lots of third party Sony exclusives comes to PC same day as PS5. Sony also started with 1st part ports over 1 year ago
100% of Xbox Series X games is released on PC same day.
PC have 10.000+ of games never released on any console.
Besides PC, i play on Switch.
My Xbox One X and PS4 collects dust.

@Dezzy70 Microsoft have more than Forza for mass market.
Sea of Thieves have 25 millions players on PC/Xbox alone.
Halo and Gears of War sold millions outside Game Pass.
Bethesda games is for mass market, and Doom and The Elder Scrolls games sells millions outside Game Pass.
Halo and Forza is Microsoft's answer to Mario and Mario Kart.

You would be surprised that most Sony exclusives sold on PS4 didn't sell well. Third party games dominated top 10 on PS4 every year.
Nintendo have many games that don't sell well too, but Nintendo already know it. Games like Wario Ware, Mario Strikers, Mario Golf etc. is only to fill gaps.
Mario Kart and Pokemon sales is what paying for those "obscure" games.

Sony were very good at filling gaps on PS3, but on PS4 and PS5 they ignore filling gaps as they say it costs too much money. In fact their first party games nowadays is so expensive that they had to release on PC too, to cover the costs.
Sony have said this themselves, and were in media worldwide. They even registered "Playstation PC" brand for PC ports.

Yes. Who knows. Many giants have fallen.

Amiga 1200 with 68030 CPU with at least 4.MB Fast RAM and a HDD.
A1200 runs everything, while A500 is limited to A500 games.
In fact you can run most CD32 games from HDD on A1200 too, but CD Audio will be missing.

Also get a A1200 VGA Adapter so you can connect it to a PC Screen with VGA input. Those cost only around 10 bucks or less.

@Dezzy70 Both Sony (Limited storage) and Nintendo charges money for cloud saves.
On Xbox you have unlimited cloud save storage 100% for free without any sub.

@AstroTheGamosian That won't happen in near future.
Even if their hardware sale fails, they still have way more valuable franchises than Sega
Mario Kart, Pokemon and Animal Crossing would sell 10's of millions each as multiplatform games. Then add Zelda, Mario, Metroid and lots of other games.

Sega managed to survive with far less. In fact PC is the main market for Sega. Most Sega make is PC exclusive.
Sega owns Creative Assembly and Relic Entertainment which is probably 2 of the 3 best RTS makers on the planet.

It's weird, but Sega were a PC company for many years now. ~50% of Sega games is never being released on consoles.
In fact around half of Sega developers makes only PC games.

@AstroTheGamosian Atari today can never get back to the glory, because it's a dead brand like Commodore. Even if you slap the logo of both on anything, only a minority will buy it.
None of the brands have any market power at all.
Atari VCS. I knew about it for years, but no one ever talks about it and media ignores it. It's also pricey for what you get. It were bound to fail before it even started.

In fact the Amiga 500 Mini console released in 2022 will probably outsell the VCS, but the 500 won't be a big success either.
Amiga 500 Mini is sold everywhere in Norway, but no one ever here sold Atari VCS at all. I guess Commodore nostalgia is easier to sell than Atari nowadays.
A500 Mini also costs only 1/3 of the VCS.

As far as i remember, there is at least two different companies who owns various Atari brands today.
AMIGA were sold as a separate trademark, and someone else owns Commodore brand.
Another reason why it's impossible to revive the brands as too many is involved.
Not even IBM would have any effect on the home market anymore. They are all only nostalgia brands today, but they had a chance around 2000. After that it were too late for revival.

You would be surprised where old game, movie props etc. exists today.
Original creator of props gave away the props for free, some were sold, auctioned, lost, stolen, broken etc.
In 1990's props didn't have that much value, and could end up anywhere.
It's not unlikely at all that Tramiel had that sword.

Original prop creators still give away olds props for free.
Like that guy from Mythbusters who got the Aliens Assault gun movie prop for free only 1-2 years ago from original creator.

@AstroTheGamosian Yes, it's the same Tramiel.
Original Atari went bankrupt 2 years before Commodore, and Tramiels Atari went bankrupt 2 years after Commodore.
Two legendary hardware companies gone in short time.

It's not unlikely that he had the sword from Swordquest.

@AstroTheGamosian Commodore would go out of business anyway. The new boss who took over for Tramiel had no clue about economy and didn't know how to control any company. He wasted all Commodore money in only a year or so and lived like a Arabian oil mogul while it lasted. Who knows what would happen if Tramiel continued as boss, as he ran it properly with iron hands.
Escom who bought Commodore had CD64 console in development, but Escom went bankrupt because of their failing PC market. At least Escom managed to mass produce more Amiga 1200 before they also went bankrupt.
Escom were a great owner who had a clue about continuing Commodore and had resources for innovation.

There is too many new games all the time, and these online games sure can drain too much time.
Long time since i played much single player.

@anoyonmus Switch gets cloud version, and is why Switch version isn't cancelled.
As we know, cloud games can even run on a smart watch.

@AstroTheGamosian CD32 were not bad at all, and had a long list of great games not on other consoles. Liberation, Banshee, Heimdall 2, Elite 2, Gunship 2000 AGA and a lot more.

In fact CD32 even have the only full version of Super Stardust ever made. It had 3D tunnel sequences and FMV which were not in other versions. The 25 track CD Studio Audio were also CD32 exclusive, and one of the most praised game soundtracks ever.
Also. Many of the most famous gaming composers, ever made CD Music only for CD32 console versions.
Since it's basically a modified A1200 with 2 new chips, Secondary firmware, CD etc. Amiga developers were all over the console.
Every CD32 console ever made were actually sold btw. It were a hit for years in Europe.

It's predecessor, CDTV from 1991 sold only 80.000 even when it only costed 500 bucks at the time. Even then that one got over 500 CD Titles, only because it were made by Commodore.
Anything Commodore made got great support.
People still made CD32 games as recent as 2021, or maybe even 2022. Still a beloved console.

That "Angry Game Nerd" don't know much about the library and great support on any of these 2 consoles. Secondly, he had none of them during their prime.

As for Series X.. I use Xbox 360 gamepad on all Xbox games and PC games on PC.
I have a big TV connected as a second screen on PC, so i can play on PC like it were a game console.

If you like complex games with like 1000 features, you should also try "Lost Ark". Released internationally as recent as february 2022. Free 2 play. So much is free in that game you can easily play 1000 hours in it for free. Whole story mode up to level 50 is free too. It ends at level 50, and then rest of the game opens up. There is probably 100 events daily spread around game world. Many of the events have 30 player co-op too which is a mayhem on screen when everyone uses spells at the same time. It never slows down on my PC. Full speed no matter how much happens.

Another thing is that Lost Ark have some kind of Mario Kart event every day, Alternative Bomberman and lots of other things.

"Fenyx Rising" also looks like Zelda BOTW, until you progress in it. Quite a different game too. I completed it on PC last year.
I will try Genshin Impact later.
Sniper Elite 5 is coming to Game Pass on release next week.
Will drain x amount of hours online and offline.

At the moment i'm farming rewards in Destiny 2 on PC before the 3 week event ends in 6 days.
Recent had to farm in Rainbow Six Siege event too..
It's like i have some FOMO problem. hehe

@AstroTheGamosian Canada is the easiest place to move too. Japan culture is way too different.

My Promodule expanded CD32 with HDD console have a full Workbench made by Eric Schwartz.
I haven't seen his web comics, but i should do.

MAC had some good stuff back then, but were still lagging behind Amiga. VideoToaster were Amiga exclusive, so that were Amiga's entrance into the Movie industry.
Scala on Amiga for the TV industry.

Windows 95 and 98 were both terrible, so it never made sense that they set the standard for PC as better OS'es existed back then. Windows 2000 were great. XP became great after years of fixing.

PC is a neutral platform, so Sony trademarked "Playstation PC" and will release a lot of 1st party games there.
PC get 100% of games on Xbox too, so getting Series X is pointless. I own PS4, and since PS5 is basically a repeat of PS4 i will never get PS5. PS3 is the only Sony console i ever liked, and also played most on.

I recently got some free DLC for Genshin Impact from NVIDIA, but i haven't tried the game yet.
The games i play every day is "Lost Ark" and "Knockout City".

@AstroTheGamosian I only had NES 1 year or so, because at the same time Amiga 500 had way better graphics and sound than NES. In fact nothing could compete with Amiga at the time in gaming.

If you live in USA, you probably don't know this.
By 1990, AMIGA were as big as IBM in Europe.
Americans sure missed on great gaming hardware there.
Funny thing is that AMIGA were designed and produced in USA, but only became a mega success in Europe. In fact Amiga is still being made in 2022, but the market is niche nowadays.

All gaming computers were superior to consoles for over 35 years. The benefit with gaming computers were that there were no control on anything. Everything were allowed in games. Even Adult games were sold with no age rating as far as i remember, because no one cared back then.

Anyways. I own Switch, but my main gaming system is PC.
In fact my PC is a lot more powerful than PS5 and Series X, so i don't need any of those consoles.
You can say computers is still superior to newest consoles for gaming. PC costs more, but games costs way less on PC.
Over time Gaming PC don't cost more than consoles.

@AstroTheGamosian I many cases parents are kind of forced to buy COD for their kids, because their friends have it.

I tried some COD games online years ago, but i couldn't stand all the screaming. Some kids even had siblings screaming in the same mic. Then you heard the voice of their mamas complaining about something.
It were like playing a kindergarten game online.

"Five Nights At Freddy's"..They probably though it were a Winnie the Pooh", so they bought it for their kids.
To me it looks like parents only look at the covers and ignores the age ratings and warnings.

I'm almost surprised "Manhunt 2" or "Mad World" didn't become big hit games among kids. I wonder how many kids are playing Mortal Kombat 11...
I played violent games as a kid, but back then no games had age ratings.
In fact only "nerds" and kids played games back then. You were an outsider if you played games.

I think Mortal Kombat 1 and Moonstone 1991 were the reason why they started to look age ratings.

Moonstone on AMIGA 500 got huge media attention for it's violence.
The blood and kill sounds in that game made Mortal Kombat sound like a Mario game.
Unlike the bad sound on consoles and PC back then, Amiga had sampled sounds.
Then add the brutal bloody animations to the sounds.

@Krysus Wrong.
Both WW and TPP is 1080p on Wii U.

I don't want any of them on Switch anyway as i bought them both on Wii U.

@AstroTheGamosian Yeah. FTC don't exist here at all. Besides that, those fines don't apply to non profit channels.

There is many dumb parents out there. Same happened with "South Park" movie. It had to be for kids since it were a cartoon...
Team America...Kids movie, because it had dolls..

Millions of parents buy Call of Duty for their kids every year.
If it weren't for dumb parents, Call of Duty franchise would probably be dead as 80-90% of COD Players is kids.

@themightyant Yeah. Mario Kart is the most mainstream Nintendo game ever had which sells to 50% of consoles owners.

@Laserbeak1982 @OnlyItsMeReid

Nice that it's fixed then.

@themightyant Microsoft releases everything on Steam, and pays the 30% fee as it's worth it because of all the extra millions of extra sold games that 99% of Steam owners refuse to buy on Windows 10 store.

I'm fine with Sega doing this.

@Not_Soos Sony sold millions of games on PC too last 2-3 years.

Nintendo is missing out on a lot of money by ignoring the neutral PC market.
Meanwhile Sony will release more PS exclusives on PC in 2022.
In fact they even registered "Playstation PC".

Nintendo could start with a old game like Bayonetta 2 on PC. Would easily sell a lot.

@HotGoomba If MS buys Activision, they will support Nintendo again including Call of Duty for the first time since Wii U.

@SalvorHardin You are missing the biggest flaw.

People using cheats to fly directly to goal and win.

@JR150 Fall Guys isn't even out on Xbox yet. Probably releasing same day on Xbox and Switch.
Add new Xbox player base to the list too.

If it's releasing on Game Pass, it will be even more populated on Switch.

@Shepdawg1

1.) Coming to Xbox and Switch at the same time.
2.) Cross-Platform with PC and PS.

So yes, it will live on for a bit longer thanks to Xbox too.

@AstroTheGamosian "The problem is, if you live in the United States, if you mark your video as "not for kids," and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) decides that it is, in fact, for kids, even when it's actually not, you could be fined over $42,000 PER VIDEO!"

This is insanity. There is no human right that everything must be for kids. Also. Who have 100% knowledge about what kids are allowed to watch or not?
Those rules change now and then too. BLM for example. A lot of famous children songs worldwide became banned because of that. I live in Norway and the "Woke" crap started here too.
It's very hard to get fined for anything online in Norway at least. In fact i never heard of anyone ever get fined for online content here since Internet started to become popular in 1991. Norwegian laws still protects the population quite strict.
In fact Norway were a forerunner in the world for Nintendo's stupid eShop and pre-ordering rules. I remember Germany joined Norway vs Nintendo.

I refuse to earn money on YouTube as i need to use licensed music which 100% of record companies worldwide allows me to on my 3 YT Channels as long as channels is non profit. My gaming channel have music videos from many games rated for 18 year olds, so no one could ever mark it for kids anyway. My concert channel have lots of recordings with explicit lyrics. Again, impossible to mark the channel for kids. My channels is for these reasons blocked for all kids.

If i ever wanted to make money on YT, i would need to set up a fourth channel following rules 100%...Which i never will.
I prefer to have full freedom on my channels, and that works perfect as long as they are non profit.
I think 100% of my over 1000 videos on YT have copyright claim.

@Kyloctopus I were on the safe side on my 3 YouTube channels years ago, and set all of them to "Not for kids". This also gives more freedom on content.

I tried this China game as a demo long time ago and it felt low budget like a Wii game.

@Chozo Your EA hate shines here as you ignored the article and made up your own lie that isn't related to this news.
It's EA ditching FIFA.

It were known for a long time that EA were gonna boot FIFA.

@gergelyv Yeah. It would take a long time only to figure out the correct gameplay, and at the same time it has to be better than EA one.
It have never been as hard to make it from scratch as now as it also have to utilize newest consoles and PC's while it have to run at minimum 60 FPS with near photo realistic graphics.
My guess it could take 4-5 years with a huge skilled team and it still might not even be as good as the EA one.
I also think it would need as high budget as some of the most expensive AAA Games.

There is a reason FIFA didn't have much competition for over 20 years. Football is too expensive to gamble on, and this is why we got games like Rocket League, Mario Strikers etc. instead as none of them competes with FIFA.

@Zyph Due to the insane licensing costs of FIFA, they are forced to fill any FIFA game with transactions.
Remember football games loses sale value quickly, so they need to rely on in game transactions instead to cover the costs.

@Maulbert This comment went out of fashion and expired 10 years ago... Time to update this comment..
Secondly.. EA isn't the worst.

And besides, football industry is more greedy than any game publisher on the planet.

@gergelyv Nah. 2K is more likely.
Also. Did you try newest Konami football game "eFootball"? It's one of the worst football games ever made.

@dres Yeah. FIFA had big mouth vs EA earlier too and said they never liked EA and yet they charged EA for 30 year of licensing... I'm easily with EA against FIFA. FIFA isn't even able to behave professionally and they are like cry babies in media.

Football generally is known to be among the most greedy thing you can ever encounter on the planet.
In fact they are so greedy with their insane demands that they lost 30-40% of Premium viewers in Norway last month, and they are stupid that they think they have the upper hand. Football industry currently bleeds money here and not the ISP.
lol. Thing is. They want 100% of the population to pay for Premium football, including those who never watch football ever. A premium football sub can cost as much as 100$ extra monthly on top of existing TV sub. Insane.

Did you know that even very small football pubs need to pay a meaty amount of money for being allowed to show football on TV?

Anyways. 2K is probably the only one that will consider FIFA with their GTA 5 money, but as we know 2K doesn't make much great sports games anymore so 2K + FIFA combo will probably leave a bad taste.
Another thing is that games like FIFA have no longevity for sales, because there is a new one every year.

@K1LLEGAL Use YouTube app or something.

@angelus Yeah, but at least Nintendo had Gold points for at least 10 years now which converts to real money. Sony never had any rewards at all.

Dirty Harry 5 were probably first movie with Jim Carrey i ever watched.
He were in a lot of movies in 1980's before he became famous.
He were acting for around 40 years.

If a Sonic 3 movie is coming, i guess he will be in that one.

@angelus It's called "MS Rewards" on Xbox.
I earn around 10$ every month on Xbox, but earned a total of 170$ so far just for playing games mainly.
You get points just for starting specific games weekly.
You get points daily using the Xbox phone app.
You get monthly points for doing specific tasks in games.
Getting an Achievement daily gives you a bunch of points.
Bing searches, purchases etc.
100% of points can be converted to real money.
You can spend rewards and real money combined on purchases like on Switch with Gold points.
Xbox also have punch cards can give you a huge chunk of extra points on purchases.
Windows 10 Game Pass PC Versions can be used instead of Xbox to earn points, but Xbox console app have exclusive bonus points daily.
The points can also be used for purchasing anything Microsoft sells including Surface laptops etc.

@Kiz3000 I ment the game mechanics. "Nintendo magic".
Crash Bandicoot isn't that great.

The only third party game i know of with "Nintendo magic" is Knockout City, besides lots of arcade games.
Nintendo hired that developer to make Mario Kart Live.

@Bobb

1.) Turn off Switch.
2.) If you look around, you can see that Monkey Island 1+2 exists on like every system ever made, including digital cameras, fridge screens and toasters.

@Erigen The 2 first Monkey games is released on almost any platform ever made...Just saying.

@ATaco No one managed to clone Mario either.
"Rayman Legends" is probably the closest you get to Mario.

I can't believe 1000 developers last 30-40 years were unable to re-create Mario Kart and Mario.
How hard can it be?

Another failed attempt at making a Mario Kart clone.

You can tell it's another failure just by looking at the physics in the video.

Why not add a feature that reminds us about how useless Platinum points is?

Microsoft is way better at "Platinum" points than Nintendo.
When it comes to Microsoft, and also Xbox.. "Platinum" translates to real money.

Sony is so cheap that they don't even have "Platinum". lol

@Antraxx777

PS VITA and Wii U launched in 2012, and had folders on home screen.
Folders didn't slow down any of those consoles, so Nintendo is lying about Switch.

Yes, i know folders were sluggish on 3DS, but not Wii U and VITA.

@Ludovsky Yeah. 3DS and Wii U could have over 10 folders on Home screen. Switch doesn't even have room for 6 icons on home screen.

Switch is as clunky Epic Game Store on PC.
Epic store icons is a joke. Even at 8K resolution you can still only have 12 huge icons on Screen.
My guess is that Epic made the clunky folders for Switch.

At this point i don't even care about folders on Switch anymore as there is too many games to sort.
I added one folder only for "Playing"..10 high priority games.

The folder system is so bad you have to memorize what you added in other folders. No thanks.

It's only 9 days until april fools day, and Nintendo already added folders?

@Degenerate_Mii That will never happen.
In fact PC version is delayed for like 7 years now, so i consider that version cancelled too.
Tomonobu haven't announced anything in 10 years besides Devil's Third on Wii U and PC.
Looks like he gave up making games.

@TheRealMr_Carpainter Something is seriously wrong when the rip-off Candy Crush competes with Zelda OOT and Civilization.
