Guest Posted September 1, 2021 Report Share Posted September 1, 2021 Quote End goal is alway how much more money they can bring in. That's how always been. Be it EA or MS or SONY or any company. This isn't charity. Even charity don't give 100% away. Corporate don't a give shite about what we think. They have bosses, shareholders and other targets to hit.

However, Sony and Nintendo get a lot of flak for producing remasters/remakes but others get praised (in the same sentence) for reviving a dead IPs (which they killed btw and eventually shut the original studio down. ) Just for reference, here's a list of Studios EA has killed so far https://heavy.com/games/2017/10/studios-ea-has-killed-visceral-games/ If there is a benchmark to judge companies, it should be same, applied across the board.

If you are remaking a game, it needs to be old and forgotten. And a classic. Like Dead Space. If Nintendo would remake Mario 64 or Ocarina of Time, they will / were praised. Re releasing previous gen games that are pretty up to date will definitely attract flak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nintendo generally remakes WII U gen games as the system got overlooked mostly. Edited September 1, 2021 by radicaldude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence many would be playing those games for the first time. Most people have issue with Nintendo pricing. They re release old game at $60, then don't give any discounts even a year later. Or they will be releasing Metroid Dread for $60. It's graphics look more like an indie game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the same news a blue tick playstation blog site has posted few hours back. I have referenced it in the ps5 thread.

They tweak the GFX, or controls or both on the switch version. Though I agree, some of those remakes should be $40 or less.

But then you have remasters also going on for like $60, it's not as bad as the early PS4Bone era but still, like the ME trilogy collection remaster thing now going for 4K on PC I'm sure it will come down in price in a year but still EA is going to be EA the DS( space this time, not souls ) remake is also ok, atleast EA isn't sitting on the IP shamelessly like they did with C&C, they probably have plans for it in the future also.

Here’s a radical idea, Maybe if devoted fans stop fellatio’ing Sony and Nintendo for every minutest thing, and accept them for the money loving corporations that they are, their actions will attract less scrutiny as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im surprised you haven't been suspended yet, non stop baiting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XSX will be 60$ everything included, but it'll probably be day 1 on GP anyway. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
