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.

LucasArts gave Jango Fett his own game in 2002, and it pulled Star Wars into a much dirtier, rougher, and more interesting corner of the galaxy.

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.
VGChartz... lol... seriously... many of you need to stop using VGChartz to feel good about your favorite console... this site is already proven to be nothing but crap... it simply show how well or bad consoles are selling in the Matrix...
What makes people think VG-Chartz have been tracking the correct sales numbers in Europe where you'd think would be harder to get accurate numbers when they can't even do NA?.
and found out the source that VG Chartz uses for their info.

Here's a little history if you aren't familiar.

I HATE that only Nintendo's games sell on the Wii.
It's like they made a console that only benefits themselves.
I have no idea why 3rd party developers are even wasting their time spending money making games for it.
Still figthing a good fight againts the PS2 though.
