Square Enix launches Final Fantasy X 25th anniversary site, revealing new Nomura art, books, music releases, and merchandise.
Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.
They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.
they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.
Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted
Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments
FuRyu revealed on Friday its Exstetra fantasy role-playing game is getting an HD remaster that will launch this summer on Steam.
The Wii is now a retro console. Let’s get nostalgic about an often maligned system.
Crazy to think the WII is to the Switch 2, as the NES was to the WII back then. 20 Year difference.
My wife asks me to bust it out (heh) everyone once in a while to play bowling and tennis with the kids. There was a ton of slop on it but some good stuff as well.
Wii was great but boy howdy did it cause Microsoft to go on a dark walk with the Kinect and the disastrous XBox One launch that they arguably never recovered from.
Not nostalgic for me.. I was there.. anyone who wasnt a little kid realized it was a gamecube with shit tacked onto it, it was the "joke" system and was well below even the switch in terms of comparing it to the latest machines at the time. The machine was well loved by young people and "casual gamers" who now remember it 20 years on, or in most cases more of its sales came in the 15-20 years ago range not right at launch- but again its not nostalgic for people who were "gamers" then really, just for those who ended up with one in their house, the games , graphics, interface and online features were archaic already in 2006.
It hard to compete with Black Friday numbers, the week after black Friday and a release week for a console. With that said, each console did fairly well and the 360 still dominating the USA. So far the Vita is selling fairly well, I can't wait to.see how numbers improve with the 3G/Wifi with a year of plus and Unit 13 is released this week.

Most of the Wii U's will eventually be returned because of piss poor experience.
Multiple hours in now simply trying to get the piece of shite to connect to the internet and update, on a wifi network that had worked flawlessly on every other single device out there from iPhones to Android phones and X-Box 360's to iMac's.
Just saying... If this expereince is typical, the Wii U is DOA.
Just about ready to box mine up and take it back.
Xbox360 continues to dominate the software sales list.
guesstimates at best. We wont have to wait long before the Big 3 release their quarterly reports. Seeing as how VGChartz has decided to take Microsoft's numbers at face value yet remain skeptic about Sony's, has me seriously doubting their "Sales analysis" very much. VGchartz tracking has been know to be off by as much a 500,000 when it comes to overtracking the 360. It also undertracks ps3 200,000~75,000. I can't deny that Microsoft has made themselves a major player compared to last generation.
