The Vgtilt goes all in against Nintendo and compares their last 10 years to Microsoft's last 8 years. Who comes out the winner in the end?
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
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.
A brutal reset, a smarter story, and a return to what made it great—Mortal Kombat (2011) revived the series.
Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.
15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
They've made sure to beat Microsofts console which costs less than their console,so long as Microsoft loses I'm always going to be smiling and laughing at Xbots
You really dislike Nintendo,don't ya Silogon?
@siligon
" but Nintendo has held the industry back"
How the hell are they holding anything back?
They keep the industry healthy(getting in new people) and Sony and MS push hardware limits.
what more do you want?
Hope nintendo keeps trying to be like this ( not hardware wise, but their mindset to get everyone playing and actually get them like they got them with the Wii)
This way when some part of the industry starts crashing down it has something to lean on. Especially with the economy now coming down in many places those high development costs aren't helping anything.
" I think Nintendo is more worried about making the most profits"
hahahahahahah, seriously when was the last time Sony or MS donated you when you got one of their systems ? XD
MS and SONY would like to have the most profits too.
But for them it will just take some time, for example if Sony didnt care for profits they wouldnt be selling the PS2 on that price tag today while the hardware is extremely cheap to make nowadays.
No profit in that right? after 8 years?
yeah right they don't care for profits, but if thats what you believe xD
nintendo gave us the rumble pack for games, the Wii which is the best selling system this gen. bumper buttons, some of the best platformer games
I love Nintendo but the last few months have been really down.
The next game I'm really looking out for on the Wii is the new tails game. and that's not till Christmas.
