sega couldn't compete

Wario got BTFO by this little bug.

>>9215954
Tbh not even Nintendo had an answer to Wario

They had no idea what to do when he manifested himself onto their handheld console and started to dethrone their main mascot, and ultimately decided to go along with it for a while.

>>9215954
Maybe not a direct answer, but it did have other wacky games like Ristar and Dynamite Headdy

>>9215954
>>9215976
he's a chad too powerful for any mere company
no one can answer the eternal question that is wario

>>9215954
The Game Gear didn't have an answer to a lot of things. The Genesis held itself very well against the SNES, but man, the Game Gear just had a really weak library versus the much cheaper Game Boy

>>9215972
Tempo sold almost nothing and is forgotten.

>>9215976
true desu

>>9218007
>sales mean quality
weak argument, I expect no less.

>>9218017
>and is forgotten
How many people will recommend you Wario Land because they thought it was fun? A lot of people.
How many people will recommend you Tempo because they thought it was fun? Not many, not just because it didn't sell that much, but the game is just nothing special and people who did play it don't bring it up much.

I do not need to heed the recommendations for games I've already played. I see masses of people who all think the same and refuse to be open to new works as dead ends.

Because Game Gear was a garbage rehash of the Chadster System. Shit didn't even have any based Alex the Kid games.

>>9218325
But Game Gear is better than the Masturd Incelstem.
>better audio
>better colors
>limited battery life so that only chad players could finish games, weeding out scrubs
also alex the kidd sucks.

Wario was not a system seller

>6 AA batteries
vs
>2 AA batteries
as a kid I knew already which one made more sense.

>>9218024
>Xenogears mogs the shit out of FFVII in every way aside sales
>suddenly it's inferior because it didn't attract enough normalfags and fujos.
That's your logic.

>>9215954
Instead of going with Edgy The Edghog Shadow, they should have gone with the opposite of Sonic.

>Sonic is fast
>This guy is slow & fat

>Sonic is smart
>This guy is a dumbass!

>Sonic wants to save the world and eat chili dogs
>This guy just wants to eat chili dogs

>Sonic destroys Robotnik's stuff to save his friends
>This guy tends to wreck Robotnik's stuff on his way to the good doctor's fridge.

>Fatty the Fathog
>Now on Game Gear!

>>9218757
They alternatively could have just done a Wario style Dr.Robotnik game. Something where you use a bunch of machines and vehicles to go through ruins trying to steal the Chaos Emeralds. Or give Nack his own outlaw game gear run n gun hires by Robotnik to do the same idea.

>>9218764
aah yeah, that could have worked. play as the evil Dr Robotnik and see it from his point of view for once.

>>9215972
Who is this scrimblo? Looks kinda gay compared to Wario.

>>9218757
Sooooo Big the Cat

>>9218757
since when is sonic smart? he just busts shit up, maybe he's smart in the sense that he can think on the fly (especially when the fly is pretty fast) but i wouldn't say he's done anything particularly intelligent compared to say tails

>>9218991
Tempo, it's the name you know, from New York, L.A. and San Francisco.

>>9219252
>Sonic Adventure garbage

Yuck!

>>9215954
Funny because I've always thought Wario was a sneak "answer" to Sonic from Nintendo. Much more rebelious than Mario, the "Play it Loud" ads and even some European ones really played up he wasn't your grandma's videogame hero.

Case in point, I know like 4 Sega and Playstation kids who had GB growing up and they loved Wario.

>>9220000
That was Diddy Kong.

Did Game Gear have even one decent game that wasn't pic related?

>>9215954
Tails Adventure

>>9218757
>Sonic spins
>that guy rolls
also thanks doc
