If you could go back in time and erase one /vr/ mistake, what would it be?

would have mother 3 release on the n64 with a lighter tone than the shit gba game had

Nintendo's biggest mistake that generation was building a 3D-capable game console and insisting devs fit their games onto their anemic cartridges. 64DD should've been the default storage medium. N64 could've been a JRPG powerhouse like the PSX.

DD was inferior to CD

>>12495698
>DD had a storage capacity of 64MB
Okay, so 636MB less to work with compared to a regular CD, but still larger than the average N64 cart.

With the knowledge I have now I embrace life and take chances instead of being crippled by my fear of rejection and failure. I seriously had so many chances to be someone much better than who I am today and I squandered it because I was too afraid to be myself unapologetically.

There is no compelling reason to pick DD over CDs at all.
>>
>>12496272
For sure, but Nintendo has never used traditional discs, so I was just keeping in line with that spirit. Also floppy disks look cooler than standard CDs. Maybe Nintendo could've used something like the PSP's UMD.

Ditch the 32x, make proper use of the Mega-CD's hardware and get a more diverse library of games besides FMV games, all resources into advertising the saturn in western markets, and MAKE USE OF OTHER IP'S BESIDES SONIC. this should effectively lead to the dreamcast being successful since it was Sega's dogshit reputation that fucked it over more than the console itself.

What are you waiting for, nintendo to make one?

Delaying Duke Nukem Forever to switch engines.

When I was a kid, my mom talked me into cutting up all my N64 boxes, and keeping the front and back for the art so that we could have more space on the tv stand. I still have them.

WTF, dude?!

Cartridge sizes had nothing to do with mother 3 not being released on the 64.

I'd put the god sim parts back in Actraiser II.

Yeah, they improved the other part of the game and it's a good action platformer but no one cared because it wasn't Actraiser any more. Traded a unique gameplay formula just to do the same shit a million other games already did.

>>12495593
copy protection on Dreamcast, I think maybe it could have lasted longer at retail. On the other hand I did witness Gamecube being outsold by the ps1 even when they were the same price.

Brutal. Games were pretty expensive for our family so we never even lent anything.
