Re: Aspyr Brings Deus Ex Remastered To Switch Next February

Zeebor15

@UndockedActionFemme The one good thing about Aspyr is that if you just wait till right after the Josh pre-orders close, an actually affordable retial copy that will be released on time will he announced distributed by Aspyr themselves. It's literally the only plus they have over Nightdive, because Wade keeps sub-contracting them to Aspyr's cousin that even Aspyr hates working with.

@Elbow @Wewewi @Thomystic @TomSupreme @Alex79uk They're Embracer's most consistent profit generator now, and certainly less of a liability than the overbloated Eidos teams themselves. I will admit, most if not all of Embracer's really good porting teams either left with Saber, or were Shiver (Soon to be Nintendo Miami), but Aspyr are competent enough, and they're free. I'm not saying they're the best, but they don't have to pay a sub-contracting fee to Atari.

Re: Nintendo Of America Reportedly Cuts Loose Customer Service Contractors As It Looks To Outsource

Zeebor15

Contractors are already outsourcing under US law, and have about as many employment protections as the sweatshops abroad.

As always, I blame this on Doug Bowser's intimate knowledge of how EA works, and way too friendly relationship with Microsoft, but this is nothing new. Nintendo wins for a generation, grows arogant in the next. Gets humbled aggressively, pulls a hail Mary too get themselves back to top while being consumer friendly again, and once back on top go right back to screwing people over.

Every year, Xenoblade 3 becomes a little more cosmicly hilarious

Re: Round Up: Every "Exciting New Game" From The Acclaim Showcase

Zeebor15

All of the Acclaim Sports games are owned by Throwback or Piko. It is to my understanding that none of Acclaim's IP are owned by this, which is less than can be said about Accolade as it at least stayed mostly together as one lump as it got passed back and forth from Atari yo Billionsoft and back again

Re: Shinobi: Art Of Vengeance Is Getting A Resolution Update On Switch

The physical is sold out of all the import sites because Sega started trying to block sales; suspected as part of an anti-compete in LRG'S license. Of course they can't STOP import sites fully, wonmy question is: do you think import sites will get new stock first, or should I just suck it up and wait for the LRG version to show up at VGP next year?

Re: Review: Adventure Of Samsara (Switch) - Atari's Throwback Metroidvania Embraces Cycles Of Life, Death, And More Death

The cope in the Atari circles is that this spin-off (which I'm surprised no marketing for this ever just calls it that. This has about as much to do with Adventure as Battle Network does with X and we still call those Mega Man games.) will see a boost once it goes to retail. Now that Atari has Thunderfull, they SHOULD be able to get a box out quicker than iam8bit will for Hollow: considering iam8bit's calendar is backlogged to June
