The first PlayStation games that released on PC sold just ok, but they’ve been performing worse and worse as they‘ve come out. PC is a different market. A market that’s not gonna save PlayStation or Xbox…

Pretty much. While I see Xbox still going at it, I wonder how long PS will.

And people on either here or other gaming forums asks why Nintendo doesn't do this? Well, not including the arguments from the pro-emu crowd, here we go!

Putin STILL thinks the attacks are Ukrainian when they weren't.

He's going to pull a page from Netanyahu's book, isn't he? Except, the voices for Ukraine won't be as loud this time. Not after 10/7.

@last_lap: Read their posts again, they were talking Good Feel, who isn't owned by Nintendo.

Metacritic - 74-75

Honestly, sounds about right. Still, looks pretty fun.

The fact that there's a "Kung Fu Peach", someone at Nintendo has been watching some Hong Kong action cinema.

After watching Mandalore's videos on the original Marathon trilogy, I now wish this franchise stay dead instead of becoming... ...whatever this is.

While we're talking The Crow, I just realized one of the sequels had Thuy Trang in it.

And that got WAY more depressing.

@nintendoboy16:

What did Sony do? I own a number of Steam games that have been delisted, and have never had any issues accessing them. Unless it's different for consoles?

The way I see it, delistings are no different to physical games ceasing production. If a license expires, that's the digital equivalent.

Online gaming is inherently digital in nature. I don't see how going physical would make any difference.

They announced this in their wrap-up in the Funimation-Crunchyroll merger. Like, you're not gonna access your digital purchases anymore if you bought them from Funimation. It got the attention of gaming Twitter from doesitplay to John Linneman of Digital Foundry. That shows that ANY company CAN take your digital purchases when the license expires. Just because we haven't seen it in games yet...

At least with physical, you have a chance to buy used if you can. Even if it's like gambling in Vegas or Macau at times.

@nintendoboy16: Whenever games get delisted on Steam, people who purchased those games still keep them. It just means new potential buyers won't be able to purchase them anymore. It's like when physical games eventually cease production. Delisting a game off a digital store is the functional equivalent.

I don't play New Horizons, so I have no clue what you're talking about there. Did they shut down Wii U servers? That's not the same thing as delisting a game from a digital store.

"Whenever games get delisted on Steam, people who purchased those games still keep them."

There is a reason I brought up two incidents with Sony and their digital purchases, this isn't always the case.

"new potential buyers won't be able to purchase them anymore."

That there is a problem. Digital is said to be more convenient than physical. Yet when delistings happen? Kind of helps defeat that purpose.

New Horizons didn't get delisted. It DID however get announcements that Nintendo was no longer gonna update the game. And for an online centric AC, yeah... not good.

Wii U's arguments were on game preservation. For a console that, again, didn't get support like the internet acts like.

@nintendoboy16: Nintendo, Konami, EA and Activision are all businesses who operate on profit. If something makes money, they'll keep supporting it. If it loses money, they'll stop supporting it. Capitalism 101.

Would you say the same when the license eventually wears up in the west, which again, Konami has a history of mismanaging? If one falls, they ALL fall. This is what the all-digital future "rewards" us.

Also, since Nintendo is on the list here, New Horizons made a lot of money, but Nintendo dropped support for. That argument only worked for the Wii U, and people still lost their minds over THAT shut down despite being Nintendo's worst selling console NOT the VB.
