I doubt it will be a big success on 1 format.

It will end up costing them less money overall to make. God of War games don't jump past 6 million but they're all really successful despite sitting around 1 or 2 mill sold each game (Which is where Bayonetta 1 was, most of that on PS3 which wasn't made by Platinum and didn't mean money in their pockets).

Being exclusive can actually be a very big boon, a lot of money gets wasted on making a game multiplatform, and it also means the game itself has to be downgraded so that it can run based around the weakest part of each console.

XBL makes you pay to use a service you are already paying for and play people online. Nintendo has it's issues and while I am sure has it's own,PSN has been the best for me.

Seriously, I think there needs to be a digital bil of rights that all companies selling digital services in america need to uphold. Shit I think every country should have a digital bill of rights.

also wow impossible went under. They were the studio formed after Kingdoms of amaular creator big huge games went under. So yea remember when me and Ryudo were saying Koa 2 and Darksiders 3 would likely not happen....it sucks being right sometimes.

Was just about to link and post about this too. Nintendo really needs to get their act together in those regards. His problem was preventable but inexcusable when so many other digital services tie the content to an account rather than system.

Similar reason to why I hate steam since 2008

I remember when I was a kid, back in the best decade in history, when all manner of Mario and Nintendo was EVERYWHERE. Nintendo kept you entertained with video games, but that was just for starters. They kept you cool will the Nintendo branded ceiling fan. They kept you warm at night with the Super Mario comforter and bed spread and helped keep the bogeyman at bay. (or maybe that was The Real Ghostbusters bed spread that did that, I forget) They kept you fed with NAN-TAN-DOH cereal for fuck sakes. This was a company that took CARE of you.

But never, in ANY of that time did I ever see Mario/Zelda action figures or toys line the halls at KB or Hills or anywhere. I can scarcely believe it considering how the 80's generation ate that stuff up. (literally) I wish we had these new kinds of figures and stuff back in those days. Even if they had to be dramatically simpler to accommodate for an older era and lower price point. I would have loved a Link action figure.

I want that figure. I have the Joyride Studios one but got it for 20$ back in 2002 new. I didn't know until this year it was so rare and high priced. Funny thing is I always HATED the looks of it. Like aoversized happy meal toy. I also have the figures form Oot and again got em cheap and new ha dno idea they were so rare.

I'd love to get one of these Samus or Link high end things. But sadly, even if I could afford them, I'd feel kind of nerdy keeping them on display much of anywhere. >.<

Its a general thing. Its actually pretty easy to get fucked by any service. thats why there needs to be some rules.
