I actually hope this goes well because ININ is partnered with Taito for international releases and it would be cool for them to point at this and, say, rescue Recalhorn

The game gear micro is somehow the most cynical of any of these shitty retro consoles yet

Four roms each! Fuck you!

Kingdom of Amalur : Reckoning (lol) was a huge financial failure, I’m very curious why they’re remaking it

I played it for 15 minutes when it was free on xbox live and it was the blandest game I’ve ever seen

It had enough marketing to sell ok (1-2m copies); really a victim of an over-large budget and a huge part of the studio’s energy being devoted to a World of Warcraft follow-on five years after they should have known that was a money pit.

Compiling the PC code for current consoles and sending a few press releases costs a few tens of thousands of dollars, if they do asset cleanup it’s probably $1-2m; they can charge >$20; it’s still got a lot more mindshare than the 30-year-old niche Japanese games that barely break even with a $10k cert submission. It should be pretty easy money.

what about the C64 mini that didn’t have a built in working keyboard

also the GG micro is already sold out so :boh:

Definitely seen some pro Amalur gamer discourse in…places, so.

I only played an hour or two but Amalur was fine by me for being an OK’ish action game with WRPG set ups. I remember it much more fondly than I do any Elderscrolls game.

At the PS5 reveal stream Sony’s going to announce a PS5 remake of The Last of Us 2.

It’s like an Elder Scrolls game with PS2ish action game combat that’s just mediocre instead of a uniquely strange dearth of kinesthetic feedback like Morrowind-on.

It has the map where you discover things and add icons.

It’s like Elder Scrolls plus combat blah blah minus anything interesting, complicated, thought provoking, fantastical, or anything else you’d ever want out of an ostensible fantasy setting
