that was supposed to be a 64dd game

That he knew Sony was about to steamroll everyone and put these fags out of hardware business

>>6514383
sony has always been a bit of a scumbag company to be honest

>>6514383
Sega tolerated Nintendo as an old rival but hated Sony for breaking in and stealing their business from both of them.

>>6514383
WTF? I love semen now

sony originally worked for nintendo making the playstation which was originally going to be nintendo machine

when sony had already developed the playstation for nintendo but nothing came of their contract, do you think sony would just not make use of the console they had designed? all they had to do was remove anything nintendo and manufacture it. sony was sucked in to the games industry by nintendo themself

>>6514603
>when sony had already developed the playstation for nintendo
That isn't how a radical 16-bit CD add on works. Its more like the Megadrive CD or the 32x.

Not him, but it would be pointless for Sony to create an "add-on" if it weren't able to make the SNES more powerful to produce games like Metal Gear Solid and Resident Evil.

Sony didn't even make videogames. They can fuck right out of the industry. Same goes for Microshit as well.

>>6514791
Boy are you going to feel dumb when you look up Nintendo's history.

>>6514660
>Reporting anon's comment, automatically removing it.
Sony Ponies clearly don't like us Sega/Nintendo Chads. LOL You got triggered and owned.

Probably seething because Sony obliterated the Saturn in terms of sales.

Shigeru Miyamoto worked on this game personally, btw.

Sega vs Sony is very interesting, and an unfortunately one-sided affair. Sega just wasn't able to compete with something so massive despite having so many great games. Sony could not only dominate the game releases, they could dominate the coverage.

Not to say Sega did enough on that front, they really didn't so it wasn't just Sony dominating, it was also parts of Sega giving up. For the Dreamcast Sega ran great ads about Sega's perception among the youth, while not as widely known as the Segata Sanshiro commercials they are still really funny and show how aware Sega was about the circumstances they were in.

>>6514383
>All these replies about inter company politics

I'm pretty sure the game was originally intended for PS2 and there's nothing more too it

EA and Sony really wanted that SEGA blood
Nintendo didn't, always respected their sparring partner, no matter how tense it gotten.

These commercials are amazing

The Dreamcast truly was the end of an era. It is the perfect place to draw a line under for /vr/.


NO MORE CONSOLES BEYOND THIS POINT

Like Nintendo having an exclusivity contract for Donald Duck in maui and other games, real moral company there. Sony didn't even stop wipeout and destruction derby going to saturn and n64.

>>6515947
NOOOOOOO NOT MY PRECIOUS NARRATIVE NOOOOOOOOO

>>6515947
Yeah didn't namco get booty blasted at nintendo for the shit they did? And speaking of namco didn't they outlaw anyone else from adding loading screen mini games? Golly it's almost like companies only care about themselves and money or something huh? I don't care what anyones a fan of if you're a fanboy period you're nothing more than a companies pay pig loser fuck off.

The evil company that fires the missile to Sega's HQ and kills Segata Sanshiro is supposed to be Sony.

>>6514603
Didn't they also offer Sega to made a company but Sega said no?

>>6514603
little known fact: sony decided to call that console the "PS1" and didn't use any other nicknames for it, ever. and neither did anyone else.

>>6517046
Sega said the same thing as Nintendo did because Sony wanted all publishing rights on software.

>>6514383
The playstation 1 and 2 were outselling everyone else by millions of units at the time
>hurr durr but the DS sales in Japan
Japan is one country with a tendency to very specific interests

>>6517930
Don’t forget they needed three hardware revisions to touch the PS2’s sales.

I'll take any other fanboy over ninty onions boys, the most autism fueled children in existence

>>6514454
Nintendo shouldn’t have fucked them on the deal

>>6517571
Another little known fact, PS1 was short for Playstation System 1. They never called it the Playstation Master System 1

The hanafuda hustlers made games before they launched their first console though. They maintained a dedication to it long after. While the Japanese game industry has taken a backseat to microtransaction laden western horseshit and is happy to make pachinko machines instead Nintendo continues to this day.

Was Seaman 2 any good?

>>6515947
>Sony didn't even stop wipeout and destruction derby going to saturn and n64
They did eventually buy the rights to these games to specifically stop them from showing up elsewhere.

>>6520619
there's a second one?

>>6521280
only in japan

reported and saged

>>6521869
reported for what? seaman is a DC game, which is allowed

So much nintendies switchfags. How are you all enjoying your new shit console with their shit games that got shilled on /v/ multiple times and still failed selling

>>6514454
This, honestly. Sony fucking sucks and always have, but they're the Apple of the video game industry, so people will buy their products no matter how shit they are just so they can brag about their wealth.

>>6521951

>>6521958

Nintendo is the apple of the video game industry.

>>6521976
I am not the nintendie invading this board

>>6514383
Because Sony was the biggest problem and cause why SEGA went almost distinct. Nintendo was more the needed brother of SEGA to have a healthy marketshare.
Sony then killed SEGA, not Nintendo.

>>6518063
Are you stupid?
If Nintendo had accepted the whole situation would have been even worse.
All rights would have been at Sony then.
Sony's move was actually a very shady Yakuza style.

>>6521951

>>6521934
Some faggot has been spamming this in a bunch of threads. Probably the same faggot who shitposts and then cries because he shitposts about retro shit and thinks that makes a difference.

>>6522038
Wrong guess nintendie. I am a PC gamer. But I would prefer Sony over Nintedoshit for sure as most people

>>6522049
>But I would prefer Sony over Nintedoshit for sure as most people
nobody is buying it sonybrony go dilate.

>>6522108
Yes. I choose PC over consoles because it has more games. And choose Sony over nintedoshit for the same reason

>>6514521
Now that's what I call a power move.

haha seaman like semen xD

>>6525405

The fuck

>>6514454

This, Sony are a banking cartel that dabble in attempts to monopolize technology and don't much care for the profit margin if they can manufacture control.

They have been trying to monopolize mediums for decades, since at least Beta tapes, and after multiple abject failures succeeded with Blu Rays.

>>6527696
It's success is debatable though. Optical media rapidly lost favor with consumers and since it's Sony they didn't really have an answer for that.

>>6527703

It was a short lived success, but I worked the electronics desk at Target the year Blu Ray killed HD-DVD. That being said my dad told me about Betamax and how Sony never licenses its mediums which leads to most of them being beaten by coalitions of other corps cooperating on universal mediums. I vividly remember the failure of Minidisc and UMD, as well.

>>6527706
That's why AV1 is the codec of the future. A lot of people on /g/ don't really get it but that's the direction things are being pushed in now. Since everything is streaming all the corps want reduced bandwidth costs and no licensing fees. It's not just that Sony missed the mark but they showed up to the wrong party entirely to compete with the wrong people.

Best way to play Seaman nowadays?

>>6529184
Also want to know this.

>What's the PC port of Twisted Metal 2
>What are the current PC ports of PS4 games

>>6514843
What are you talking about? Beyond the dozen or so times they used ninja developers like TOSE in the NES/GB days, it is objectively true that Nintendo made games in-house.

>>6515947
>>6515980

Twisted Metal 1 got a PC port as well released only in Japan and is obscure as shit.

Why would you buy another one, they were pretty expensive at that time

they just had to make him a cute fish girl to earn millions. it's weird how some games didn't give a fuck about basic marketing rules even in that era.

Suck Fony

Had Sega released a stronger gen 5 offering, there's a very real chance the Playstation would have underperformed and Sony wouldn't be in the industry today. It's really hard for new players to get into the console business, but the Playstation had no real competition to speak of for its first two year. By the same merit, the Dreamcast was a huge factor that let Microsoft get their foot in the door, since the Xbox would have probably gone the way of the Jaguar in a four-way console war (especially since there was a lot of overlap in target audience).

>>6539748
Nah, both Sony and Microsoft were determined to enter the console market, and they did it by force.
If anything, the weird thing is that Nintendo survived, not that Sega died.

>>6539748
Only if Sega had launched closer to the launch of the Xbox and PS2 with some more sensible design decisions for that moment. As in shipping with broadband access and more storage. The strength of M$ was built on shit like Halo LAN parties and later on Xbox Live when that service was really ready. But every Xbox user had all the hardware needed to get online by the time Halo 2 came out and the service really grew. Contrast that with the DC install base where they all had 56K modems attached and only a select few that special ordered broadband adapters from Sega got them. It's an expensive collector's item now and people are making Raspberry Pis interface with the DC's dial up modem just to get online instead of buying them.

>tfw seaman port for 3ds was cancelled
Why even go on, lads? I wanted Seaman in 3D.

>>6539776
The saddest thing isn't that the game was cancelled, it's that it was cancelled because the Seaman creator passed away. RIP.

>>6539765
Nintendo had mother fucking GOLDENEYE

>>6539792
Also Mario, Zelda, Pokemon... Nintendo consoles can flop and they will still make money because of all their first party IP.

>>6531427
I did say "eventually buy the rights". And I wouldn't consider HZD being Sony dumping their games on PC, they're still focusing on their own format, they're not retarded like MS.
