Bandai Namco turns 20 today. Thoughts on this company?
>>722165829I just want Ace Combat 8 and a GOOD Gundam game. Is that too much to ask for?
Shadow Labyrinth wasn't a good game and I don't get how it is supposed to tie all the Namco IPs together. Plus the AI is atrocious, the level design is mind bogglingly stupid, and the distribution of abilities feels random.
>sit on properties doing nothing>when they do decide to do something, give it zero budget I hate these cunts.
>Still can't get One Piece cards anywhere for MSRP>It's happening again with GundamFuck this gay company.
>>722166031>sit on properties doing nothing>when they do decide to do something, give it zero budgetSounds like every other developer these days.
>>72216582920? WHo the fuck published tekken before namco then?
>>722166285BANDAI Namco
>>722166285The merger is 20 years old you illiterate, not namco and bandai individually.
>>722165951>and a GOOD Gundam game.There has been good gundam games.
>>722165829oh is that way Klonoa and Mr Driller got added to GBA Online?
>>722166452Name 5.
>Owns Gundam>Owns Ace Combat>Ace Combat is Gundam in planes>Instead of having the guys who make Ace Combat make a Gundam they give Gundam to the worst devs on the planetMake it make sense.
>>722166345>>722166372To be fair, Im not sure a lot of people would consider a merger a "birthday". And in my mind its still just Namco. I dont give a shit about the Bandai stuff.
>>722165829I can't in good conscience call this company just incompetent, I believe they're actively malicious.
>>722166372where does it say that?
>would've paid for a hearts r remaster because it has mechanics that were meant for the vita or any of the untranslated tales games that never came to the west>decide to remaster the perfectly playable ps3 games Fuck offfff
>>722165829The quality drop from Namco to Bamco is ridiculous. Namco was one of the greats now it's just an anime sloppa AA publisher
>>722166547>it's been 20 years since Bandai Namco was born
>>722166505The Ace Combat guys are too busy doing nothing for half a decade
>>722166636That's because all the anime slop shit was AND STILL IS Bandai's domain. The namco games (Tekken, Ace Combat, Tales) are still fine
>>722166671ok and? You need to have previous knowledge of those being separate and it doesnt say bandai namco merger now does it dumbass?
>>722166857>it's their fault I'm a fucking retard!
>6 mainline tekkens from 94 to 07>2 from 08 to 26>5 mainline SCs from 96 to 08>2 from 09 to 26>7 mainline RRs from 93 to 06>1 from 06 to 26What the fuck happened. It's not like they have new IPs, From stuff doesn't count because they're just publishing that, it's not in-house
>>722166857Retard it's been 20 damn years they shouldn't have to explain every damn time that Bandai and Namco used to be separate companiesAnd of course it would be referring to the merger because anyone with a brain could figure that Bandai and Namco wouldnt have the same birth date
>>722166849>still fineFine as in barely alive, releasing 1 game a decade.>talesThat's part of AA anime sloppa. Idolmaster is another Namco AA anime sloppa franchise
>>722165829>be one of the richest companies in the business with access to massive IPs>make games with indie-tier budgetI don't understand why they're like this
>>722165829Is it too much to ask for A FUCKING ACE COMBAT COMPILATION jeez
>>722166942Market changed. Nobody wants to buy a new fighting game every year or every other year.
>Ruin tekken>Kill Soulcalibur>no more good one offs like Urban Reign>gunpla is becoming 1000 times worse than games with DLCNo, fuck this company.
>>722167221>gunpla is becoming 1000 times worse than games with DLCCitation needed.
>>722166935I'm not a retard you are. Not everyone knows every single company merger and it doesnt make them illiterate or retarded. Specially when it is not explicicly stated as such. When saying something was born most people assume its new and not a merger which makes you a mega retard for not realizing that
>>722166942This absolutely seems like a good thing to me? The only downside is when we get stuck with a shittier Tekken cough 8
>>722167414>I know you are but what am I ok retard
>>722167309>He doesn't know about P-Bandai
>>722165829>still no good One Piece gameFuck this fucking company, I'll never forgive them for this
>>722167461>no argument I accept your concession retard
lmao at these dudes larping like they remember either bandai or namco before the merger. yeah personally I much preferred GlaxoSmithKline when it was just Glaxo Wellcome. i'm cool like that you see.
>>722167490I know about p-bandai. I'm american and don't have to care about it since we have an official distribution channel now and have for years.
>>722167589>yeah i need a citation as to why bamco is being greedy with their model kits>gives citation >lol I'm american, i dont careChoke on a burger you fat fuck faggot piece of shit.
In THREE years from 04-06 Namco developed>RR7>RR6>AC0>AC5>ACX>SC3>Katamari>We Love Katamari>Me & My Katamari>Tekken 5>Idolmaster>Death by Degrees>Kill Switch>Tales of Rebirth>Tales of Legendia>Tales of the AbyssLets see what it release from 23 to 25>Tekken 8ummm Blue Protocol?
>>722167765Cry about it, leaf.
>>722167507Well that's not Bamco's fault. Thats Oda's fault. He's a shitty mangakai.
>>722165829https://arch.b4k.dev/v/search/image/S2RtBWLm2tN2MR6RTwRhhg/shill thread
>>722167415>>722167124Yes fewer games is a good thing. Who wants to play more than ONE Ace Combat a decade or ONE Ridge Racer (made by westerners) in two decades? That's just silly
>>722165829Just another big company that used to be great and now they're making nothing but soulless slops and DEI-pandering crap.
>>722167924Those are obviously different you inbred. Unless you're part of the minority that plays fighting games for the story then less frequent releases is much better.
>>722167856of course it's bamco's fault, these braindead niggers have the rights for the One Piece games but make only low budget trash games when in reality it deserves a 5+ year high budget game from a AAA top developer studio
>>722167787>Tekken 5The GOAT.
they were number one
>>722166505>Instead of having the guys who make Ace Combat make a Gundamkek Gundam Assault Horizon
I'm buying Gee Bee on my Switch 2 tomorrow
>>722165829I hate that they control a bunch of things I like.
>>722168031>different From what, Ridge Racer is literally listed in that post>>722166942Is the Ridge Racer that's different from Ridge Racer in the room with us right now
>No more soul calibur>refuse to rerelease xenosaga despite rereleasing even more niche series like baten kaitos>refuse to do anything with old IP's except the same rereleases of the 80's catalogue>completely shit the bed with tekken 8>Only good they have done with pac-man is a remake of a ps2 era game
>>722168042>when in reality it deservesLow budget trash games.
>>722168054The merger pretty much killed Namco. It's pretty much just Bandai calling the shotd now
hijacking the thread Is Code Vein good ? I played the demo and still can make up my mind
>>722168164>>refuse to do anything with old IP's except the same rereleases of the 80's catalogueThen why have they been re-releasing shit like >>722168094 and pic related which hasn't been re-released over and pver again?
>>722167221>gunpla is becoming 1000 times worse than games with DLCIF I COULD BUY ONE
>>722168054those compilation were so soulful, the fifth one is my favourite for pac-mania, dragon spirit and valkyrie.
>>722168230It's a perfectly enjoyable 6/10 title
>>722168230It's alright, it has some nice ideas and some decent maps but also some stupid boring ass maps. Not bad enough to drop it but not good enough to want to replay it.
>>722168230Assuming you meant "can't"; it's a solidly average game. If it's cheaper than a solidly average cup of coffee in whatever shithole you live in then go for it.
>>722168356I only had Vol. 3 so I still think it's the best, the first two don't have the extra-fancy game rooms of the 3rd and the later two feel less like museums somehow. Plus motherfucking TOWER OF DRUAGA. They're all really cool though, I spent hours wandering in that shit with that jazztastic music.>the robot receptionist lady was real and at the actual Namco headquarters (or IRL museum?) and has probably been scrapped by now
>>722165829killed vidya industry along with square and enix, koei and tecmo merging
>>722165829Where is Ridge Racer 8 faggots?
>>722168309I've never heard of this game, but all I know is that girl on the left was designed exclusively for tittyfucking.
>>722168513That's what I thought, then watched few parts of a longplay, the game is too brown and boring but the character designs are okay
Frankly incompetent company.Throws money and opportunities away for no reason.
who /digdug/ here
I miss pre merger Namco
https://ugsf-series.com/en/ Never forget this is canon and updated on the regular.
I assumed Bandai was much older than just 20. How odd.
>>722168042I think you missed the point of what i was saying. The quality of one piece games can only be as good as one piece itself. Which is to say, one piece is shit. So it gets shitty games.
>>722165829Pretty cool during the PS2 era.
>DUDE PACMAN LMAOwhy every bamco anniversary event is like that
>>722169829Maybe separate from each other. Does square-enix count the years they were just Square and Enix separate?
>>722167582I know you're trying to shitpost, but genuinely nothing memorable has come out of that company since the merger, why wouldn't people remember og Namco who actually made memorable games and IPs?
>>722171187Pacman is the biggest icon Namco has ever made, why wouldn't they?
>>722171187galaga 88 ahh unc post
Patra
>>722171114I understood your retarded take, that's why I ignored it
>>722172697>Willingly subjects himself to the shittiest anime of all time>calls me retard
>>722165829The cognitive dissonance of two 40+ year old franchises being used to advertise a 20 year old corporate merger. It's a well done ad, but every non-teenager is also going to laugh at it a bit.
>>722173416can't be that shitty when it's alive for almost 30 years now, looks like your zoomer ass is the one with the god awful opinion, faggot.
>>722173761I can make a long list of things that have been around for more than 30 years, does mean they aren't shitty.
>>722173761>Wan piss isn't shitty because... It's been around the block a few decades!
>>722165829The single greatest loss of talent and ability in the entire industry. The number of missed opportunities is mindboggling and they continue to disappoint to this day.
>>722165829Gunpla is an even greater pussy repellent than video games
>>722175597Why would I care what women think?
>>722175597
>>722175597The kind of guy that picks hobbies based on the opinions of holes is already repelling pussy with his face anyway
>>722166489I never said there were 5 good ones, you obnoxious fuck.
>>722166489>Extreme Vs. Maxiboost On>Encounters in Space>Zeonic Front>Gundam Side Story 0079>Gihren's Greed
>>722175597i want to make something clear to anyone below the age of 40.Your hobbies DO NOT repel females. If it does repel them it's because they were not going to like you anyways.Women don't enjoy hobbies because CERTAIN MEN RUIN IT. Like with hobby stores, game stores, comic book stores.It's the "hard core" smelly autistic elitest that makes women cringe.It's pathetic to wear a stock image of batman t shirt when you're old enough to drink and you're out in public. You look like a manchild.There are geeky shirts that are much more lowkey and more mature looking while at the sametime a nod to anyone who sees it knows exactly what it is.Your behavior is what repels women. It's your height. It's your weight. It's your lack of hygene. It's your shit car and what phone you use.It's endless. Stop trying to attract women you'd be miserable with to begin with.
>>722166595>perfectly playable>Xillia being a PS3 exclusive to this dayCome on man, a Xillia port was increasingly necessary, PS3 backwards compat isn't available on PS4 or 5 because of architecture which meant the game was exclusively playable to people who own a console from two decades ago.
>>722168646ridge racer was never good
>>722176690>I was never good at ride racerFTFY
>>722176760there's no game to get good atit's actual garbage with no physics or AI, people only played them because they were the only racing games available at launch
>>722176987Weird cope, if I did not want to play a game I'd simply not buy it. I wouldn't buy a genre simply because there's nothing "better" currently out.
>>722166468Klonoa(ps1 version) will never re release and that makes me sad
>>722177208How do you know that? Games are being released into Playstation Plus service in the classic catalog.
>>722165829Only 20? I thought they were a lot older than that?
>>722177513The merging of companies you dumb fuck
>>722165829but bandai is way older than that (see '80s DB games)and so is namco (see literally fucking pac-man)
>>722177692see >>722177574
>>722177574No you fucking hostile asshole. I thought the company in general was older. Fuck you.
>>722178081Little boy, you could have easily looked it up before commenting. What a pathetic "man" you're shaping up to be. Maybe it's time to take the easy road like the rest of your autistic kind and doll yourself up.
>>722166857Did you complain like this when Square celebrated their 20th two years ago?
>>722166942>What the fuck happenedDLC happened.
>>722177375I guess that if they were planning on releasing it it would have been released already, it's not a high demand title but it was important back then and it has a decent following.
>>722178413They're not releasing the games based on demand, it seems highly random.
>>722178293>doll yourself up.What
>>722167490>buying P-Bandai gimmick shit
>>722178484Jesus christ, you're one dumb fucking kid.
>>722176349>It's pathetic to wear a stock image of batman t shirt when you're old enough to drink and you're out in public. You look like a manchild.You know, I was going to say that no one would bat, no pun intended, an eye at someone wearing a black tee with the logo on it but you said a stock image of batman, like the actual fucking guy and yeah that would look cheap and tacky.
>>722165829Fuck Bandai Namco for killing SoulCalibur
>start up game>see namco logo>smile>start up game>see bandai namco logo>get angry
>>722178829Exactly, that's why women don't go after guys who dress like that. Even geeky women have some class to them or they're attractive enough to get away with it.There are multiple celebrities that are huge geeks but never really casually flaunt it.I wear a Batman shirt, but many don't know what it is. It's a picrel.You'd be surprised how many people don't know what this is. I have had people think that's wear I work.
>>722179548Tell you what, I got one of these in a raffle a local plamo seller was doing and I had no idea what to do with it so I slapped it on my bag and basically forgot about it and in all the months I've had it one there the only person to actually acknowledge it was the daughter of the security guard who saw me one day. So no one who actually worked with me. The only thing that came out of it was just a conversation about anime and how their kid had a collection of their own that was taking up a lot of space and another person had a video of their son's collection.Basically what I'm saying is, even if you have the character on your person and not hidden no one really cares if you've already established yourself as a nice guy despite your nerdy hobbies.It also helps if you just own it like when the guard talked to me about it and asked if I was into anime I didn't shy away I just went>yeah I'm into it, have been for a long time.But I'm rambling now.
>>722180436I think you missed the point
>>722180745No I get what you mean, you're basically doing a similar thing to hiding your power level but showing a bit more than nothing.What I'm saying is that you can go further beyond if people know you're a good person.
unironically they got nothing going on beside gundam and fromsoft tekken suck dick but kekken players are full on Stockholm victimsthere is that mech extraction shit but they fumble that hard and killed it as well but unlike capcom they still have everything fromsoft to carry their ass
>>722165829Bandai Namco isn't a real company, it's just a resource-transfer pipeline between two actual companies.
>>722174004>>722174112NTA but lol how much of a deranged, miserable, ugly waste of space do you have to be to seethe this hard about one piece?Just kill yourselves you miserable fat fuck faggot pieces of shit.
>>722180907No, you did.
>>722181284You don't know what your point was, do you.
>>722178293>>722178556You're jaded and a failure in life huh? You weren't loved growing up.
>>722181262A child wrote this
>>722181331You're cringe and women hate it, that's not hard to understand. I'm fully aware of my own point, the fact you think I don't know my own point makes you look like a snot nosed brat who needs to be reminded you're not clever.
>>722181598If that's what you took from that, you're already hopeless. I'm not surprised though.
>>722165829the only decent game they ever made was code veinif they didn't luck out on publishing fromsoft games they would have already gone bankruptwhat a garbage company
>>722165829sex with Mappy
>>722165829They're cool. I like Tekken and Pac-Man. I want another Pac-Man Championship game. I'd also love for them to make a good Kamen Rider game at some point, but it'll never happen.
namco, make klonoa 3 you useless pieces of shithow does bubsy get revived twice over instead of a brand that had better games?
>>722181773See what I mean, you don't get it at all do you
>>722182791Kid I could give a fuck less if you're slow, talk to your parents or someone who might give a flying fuck about your learning disability.
>>722182768Maybe they've seen how people talk about Klonoa
>Sitting on a fat stack of huge classic IPs>Does worse than nothing with them>Intentionally makes mediocre entries/remasters to justify shelving themHonestly I hate them more than I hate most western companies.
>>722183171This comment is nonsense, multiple companies do the exact thing you're complaining but you fail to realize WHY they don't want to do what you're suggesting. The time of experimentation is over for veteran companies.Mega Man doesnt sell. 11 proved that. Multiple versions proved that.
>>722166942To be fair you could make the same comparison with most other companies. Everyone was just making games like madmen during the ps1/ps2 era.
>>722183452>To be fair you could make the same comparison with most other companiesLet's be honest, it's just square, capcom and bamco.
>>722183387>2 million sales>Bad
>>722173761Wait until you hear about The Simpsons
>>722183841Hey kidHere's a quick lesson about businessThe more people you got in a company, the more stakes and profit needs to be made.2 mil on a big ship ain't shit.
>>722165829As a long time Gundam fan, your image hits too close to home.>>722165951Best of both are on PS2.
>>722184080You retard. A company selling 1 product for profit is in a considerably more precarious state than a company selling 10 for the same amount of profit.
>>722184080>Unapologetically being a jew>Not realizing 2 million is still big boy numbers, especially for a game that doesn't need to be marketed to its already entrenched fanbase.
>>722165829I was about to say how, but then I realized they're referring to the two companies merging
>>722184346>>722184419I can't believe we're having this conversation. What are you obvious autistic fucks not comprehending here? Big companies like Capcom 2 mil sales in 2025 isn't shit.
>>722184509Do you think capcom are only capable of releasing one game a year? Do you think fucking would take even a fraction of the work of Monster Hunter? Are you a fucking stupid person?
>>722165829When the fuck are they going to make a Tekken collection? Capcom released theirs and are pretty much the definitive versions of the games. I see no excuse now.
>>722184636Okay we're not doing this, you're clearly too stupid and young to comprehend this shit without youtuber influence bullshit
>>722184509Goddamn you're stupid. Clearly you don't understand success is a function of budget and sales.
>>722184697Bro you just repeated your same retarded point then accused others of being morons. I wouldn't even have an issue with your rampant stupidity but you acted like a big shot with the "kid" nonsense. Now explain what you mean, pussy.
>>722184765Well go tell the companies that then if you're so fucking smart you snot nosed 20 something year old know it all manchild.You ain't shit.
>>722184849I am intrinsically more talented and more capable than the management that hired Tameem for DmC, yes.
>>722184952That means absolutely nothing nor what we were talking about.They were able to bring back DMC because the DMC they tried failed so hard. Mega Man has had a lot of different attempts and it never sells well enough nor most of Capcom's forgotten franchises for a reason.If they made money, they would be making them. But they're a corporation now. It's not the 90's or 2000's anymore. The time of experimentation is over for that company. You need to realize the bigger something gets the more it loses it's identity that you knew before.
>square Enix>Koei Tecmo>Namco Bandai Every video game company had to do mergers in the 2000’s due to low sales…. Because they were supporting PlayStation and not the wildly more successful Nintendo brands.
>>722184848I have said nothing wrong, most of you are kids and it shows especially on Sundays on this site.
>>722185436You mean the Nintendo who had poor hardware sales during that time? You mean THAT Nintendo?
>>722185249>Being such a blind soiboi redditor that you have unyielding faith in your funko pop producing corporations even when they're demonstrably fallablewew
>>722185514He said successful.Sales =/= success
>>722181262>NTA>But is in fact the anonEvery time.
>>722185530You just said a bunch of nothing, you going to use your big boy words or do you just like being obnoxious and pretend you're smart enough to keep up?
>>722185608Uuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhh on what planet? Are legit stupid? of course sales equal success you dumb shit. It's about money.
>>722185623You have literally no argument other than blind faith in corporations.
>>722185720Where did you get that from exactly? Because what you're saying vs what has been said is conflicting.if you don't buy things new, that company loses sales. If you buy it second hand, the company that sold you used makes the sale. If you pirate it, they make no money off of it most of the time because most pirates are pirates because they're broke losers.
>>722165829Really? Weird, I could've sworn it was older.
>>722185690Anon, would you consider the ps3 successful?
>>722186039Well if I wanted to be a smart ass I could say yes since it was highly successful in Japan. You're not talking your way out of this one kid, you're one dumb mother fucker.
>>722186108So you're saying it was a general success.
>>722186149Anon if profits doesn't equal success.....what makes something successful in a business if not profit?I can't wait to read your insane autistic reply.
>>722185884Namco is 70 years old this year, Bandai is 75 years old this year. Both companies merged to form Bandai Namco 20 years ago.
>>722165829>Thoughts on this company?I wonder if they ever considered people would just call them "Bamco"
>>722186234Just to get this straight, you're saying the ps3 was profitable, yes?
>>722186346You claimed success does not equal profit like an insane fucking retard when we're talking about business.You're the one who wanted to bring that up.You will NOT BE CONVINCING ME OF SHIT WITH YOUR HI[PIE NONSENSE.Companies strive to make PROFIT.No profit=failure.It's sad I have to explain this to you. I think you're legit retarded.
>>722186446>You claimed success does not equal profitSales anon, not profit.Now answer the question, you think the ps3 that burned 5 billion dollars, never made a profit and completely eliminated the profits made on the ps2, was profitable?
>>722165829Namco is such a boring company now.
>>722186610SALES IS PROFIT!HOLY SHIT YOU'RE DUMB AS HELL.
>>722186663Yes, which is why a system that sold 80m+ was never profitable.
>>722186663FYI Nintendo made more money during gen 6 than Sony did on the PlayStation.
These niggas right here. Played it in an old school arcade in Poland this year and it's still fun as fuck.
>>722186712Oh my god, you are the very reason why I want this site to have like some sort of IQ test to be allowed to post on here.You are one dumb kid. You're saying vague things without taking what happened vs what turned things into profit into consideration.How on Earth are you considered a grown man and even have the nerve to even try and to argue this is beyond words right now.
>>722186798Source?
>>722186850Someone's mad he was shown up.
>>722187007I'm mad because I'm talking to a dumb ass zoomer who thinks sales does not equal profit.Only a leftist communist would even say something that fucking stupid.
>>722187067>I'm mad because I'm talking to a dumb ass zoomer who thinks sales does not equal profit.lmaoSomeone never went to college
>>722186663Sales aren't profit holy fuck man. If I sell a thousand apples for $1 each, and it cost me $2 to pick them, how much profit have I made?
>>722185514The GameCube was far more successful than the PS2.
>>722187228That's your fault for making it cost $2 though, what does that have to do with what we're talking about?>>722187224You said absolutely nothing.
>>722186919Apparently all the places that posted these charts hosted them on a site that's blocked in my country so I can only grab thumbnails.
>>722187282Lmao
>>722187282The fuck are you going on about? It's a known fact PS2 outsold Gamecube. What is this retard gaslighting nonsense?
>>722187306I was trying to explain that sales and profit are two different things buddy.
>>722187067>>722187306God I'm glad I won't be alive when gen z takes over. If this is what you're doing online then the world is fucking doomed.
>>722187331okay so you're making it up. Go back to your 1984 hellscape Euro and go suck a muslim's dick.
>>722187306Dear God please be trolling.
>>722187461>provided a chart of Sony and Nintendo profits>YOU'RE MAKING IT UP THAT DOESN'T COUNT BECAUSE YOU SAID IT WAS A THUMBNAIL>>722187505He has to be.
Pac man world 2 repac was fucking good
>>722187435You said absolutely nothing.>>722187429Sales and profits are the same. Because if you have sold what you offered, it's a success. Sales does equal profits in video game economy because within the first two months is when the company makes actual profit. 2nd hand gamestores can say they made profit if they took an old game for less and sold it a bit higher.What you're suggesting is based on potential sales, but what you fail to realize because you never worked in busines nor retail is that things are marked up on purpose.
>>722165829Where is Xenosaga HD?
>>722187505>>722187592PS2 outsold Gamecube, this is not up for any debate. This is a well known fact and your age is showing to be rather young. Even Nintendo admitted the Gamecube wasn't selling as well as the Famicom nor the Super Famicom
>>722187628I enjoyed Pac Man DX, I have it on XBLA, I hope that console never stops working in case i get the urge to play it.
>>722187380>outsold It was a DVD player. GameCube was used by actual gamers and remained relevant up through the Wii era- due to its backwards compatibility. So gaming companies that backed PlayStation due to (fake) sales numbers quickly saw closures and bankruptcies because no one actually uses that platform.
You are all very silly people. No wonder China is thriving and your empire is collapsing.
>>722187793You can get DX on steam, or if you're talking about the XBLA one, that's on steam too.
>>722187816This is a serious question, how old are you? Because I have the weirdest feeling you read some shit and think you know everything vs what actually happened who experienced it.
>>722165829How's the Pac Man World 2 Remake.
>>722187782>PS2 outsold Gamecube,Yeah, no one is debating that.
>>722179161>Do nothing with an IP, even for a couple of years>Retards: "fuck company for killing series!"Don't you retards have jobs?
>>722165829I didnt know I was older than bamco
>>722187658Okay, just for fun, do the math on this post >>722187228
>>722188156Then what was the fucking point bringing it up jackass?
>>722187816The ps3 was backwards compatible with the ps2. So I don't get what's your point? The PS2 sold well because of the success of the PlayStation. The fact that it was a DVD player just helped because now parents had another excuse to purchase it. I don't get where you came up with this idea of "fake sales"?
>>722188273You're the one who brought it up. >>722185514
>>722188268That's not even a good example. We don't need that made up fantasy that leans to you making a point, we have actual sales statistics from actual gaming companies to use.You're just a dumb child who warp things to justify and back your own idea how the world works when that isn't true.You live in some weird autistic world.
>>722188383Bro there's even a term for selling shit at a losshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loss_leader
>>722188372i was not the one who first mentioned Nintendo you biased gaslighting fuckwit.
>>722188429You're not listening.Video games don't sell at a loss. That's impossible for them these days unless it's physical.
>>722187886I was there. I played more games on the GameCube than the PS2 owners had even heard of. >>722188349The PlayStation 1 was also not that successful. Pokémon alone raped the brand into irrelevancy.
>>722188461No one said you were, you were the first to mention their hardware in gen 6 though.You're not good at trolling are you.
>>722188573Bitch please, you really want a pissing contest?
>>722188573>>722188642Now it's obvious you're just samefagging.
>>722181262The fact that the series still isn't finished after all these years is a clear sign the author is simply stalling and injecting it with as much filler as possible. I mean, Berserk is closer to being finished than One Piss. Anyone who willingly subjects themselves to that dogshit deserves to be mocked relentlessly
>>722188627I'm not trolling so i'll take it as a compliment.I said nothing wrong, so the constant replies are you not coping with the fact fandom does not pay a company's bills.Nintendo has had multuple failures throughout it's video game history.
>>722188701Let's just say I wouldn't quit your "day job" being a psychic.
>>722188573>The PlayStation 1 was also not that successful. Pokémon alone raped the brand into irrelevancy.>The PlayStation 1 was also not that successful.>the console sold just over 100 million in its life time>Comparing a console to a whole game seriesBait used to be believable.
>>722188937Bait used to be convincing because you used to be dumber.
>>722188545So you do admit it is possible to sell a product for a loss! Holy fuck man, I taught a retard something.
>>722189092It's possible, but it'd depend on what is being sold vs what was spent.Are you slow?
