[QUOTE="DerveCreaves"][QUOTE="Gemini_Red"]

Go sell plasma or sperm, then get both.

Not kidding. Coming across deals like that are VERY rare, so I'd try to snag them both however possible.

That does give me a small idea, how much are N64's worth? The store will give me credit equal to the average prices you find it at, if it's not too cheap I might have enough for both if I trade my n4 in with a couple games.

Normally I wouldn't support selling your consoles. But in this case, I say do it. Saturns and TG-16s are hard enough to come by in the wild, but then add the awesome deal to it and it's a phenomenal deal. On the other hand, N64s are VERY easy to find. You can easily replace it.

Well i can sell it to the same store and I will have a tad of money on the side. I'll just get rid of the N64, MM, and DK64 and get them later since you said they are easy to find. Thanks a ;ot. Now hopefully those other Saturn games in that cd bin full of games and music will still be there when i get paid so i can get even more Saturn games.

All of the companies listed died 7th gen (still argued currently although it's 8th gen in reality.) Many devs died and these are only of the top of my head. Will try to go in Alpha order: Atari, the final nail on the coffin, although not confirmed if they will fully go under but they are declaring bankruptcy. THQ, good times, all those gread classic games. 3D Realms, the orignal Duke nukem guys. Aklaim,Acclaim games. They died right at the star of the first year of the 360 in 05. AQ interactive, made that arcana hearts fighting game on PS2. Artoon, made tons of great games including the Blinx series (I think both) on original Xbox. Ascaron, Made the Sacred Series Atomic Planet, Made all 3 versions of the Megaman Anniversary collection for PS2, Xbox, and Gamecube. Big Huge Games, Made the Rise of Nations series. That was a great series you guys should play very underrated. Bizarre Creations, the makers of the Project Gotham Series and Geometry Wars(all of them I believe) BlackRock, Pure and Split/Second. Blue Fang, Zoo Tycoon series Cavia: Resident Evil Dead Aim(PS2), and Nier. Cing, Glass Rose, little Kings Story. Core Design, Battlecorps,ChuckRock,FightingForce Series, original Tomb raider. Eurocom, Crashbash,Coldshadow(SNES),The World is not enough(N64),,Sphinx cursed mummy. Feelplus, Mindjack(formed in 1992 but only worked on games 2 gens later weird.) Flagship, Hellgate(PC), helped out with making WOW. GSC, Stalker series(Game development is indefinately frozen.) Hudsonsoft, Bomberman, making most games for the TG-16, Made almost all Mario Party related games. Transmission games, Heroes over Europe, Heroes of the Pacific. Luxoflux, Vigilante 8 games, Truecrime series. Midway, too many games to list. Great company, you shall be missed. Pandemic, Destroy all Humans, Starwars Battlefront games. Radical Entertainment, Crash(3rd generation), Scarface:World is yours. Indepdant game development taken away by Activision. Psygnosis/Liverpool, Shadow of the beast, Wipeout series. Closed by Sony. Team Bondi, L.A.Noir(Released 2 gens ago and only had one game? If I am missing any let me know.) Zipper Inter., SOCOM, MAG, Unit13. Closed by Sony. This isn't all of them but just the ones I had been paying attention to. These near 30 devs so far had tons of games with us to share. If there are any I am forgetting let me know. I will add them. This gen factually has had the most closed devs, and this is just a few. but these are the most well known I remember. So let me know if I miss any, and may we not forget them, such as Midway, Atari, ThQ and Hudson soft for example. And the companies we never thought we would see die! 29 Devs will be remembered. If I am missing any let me know. 7th gen was a cruel world.  Rest in PEACE! *Salutes*

All of the companies listed had at least been around 2 gens in some form. All of them have made(almost all) many legacy games we enjoy. Will try to go in Alpha order: Atari, the final nail on the coffin, although not confirmed if they will fully go under but they are declaring bankruptcy. THQ, good times, all those gread classic games. 3D Realms, the orignal Duke nukem guys. Aklaim,Acclaim games. They died right at the star of the first year of the 360 in 05.

This isn't all of them but just the ones I had been paying attention to. All these companies died off in the Xbox 360, PS3, and Wii Generation. Whether it was because they could not adapt, get out of debt fast enough, lost fan support, or dropped in quality. All of these companies (even some that barely made games.) Are legacy companies. Let us look back fondly and remember the good times yes. 29 Devs will be remembered. If I am missing any let me know. 7th gen was a cruel world.

Allow me to make this easy for you.

You randomly brought up a point that the GTA series is higher scoring. MISINFORMATION. I told you that you we're wrong. FACT. Not that it matters as they are so close, but still you're wrong.

Rather than simply admit you were wrong, or just leave it alone, you come at me with the "what if" scenarios as if they have any bearing on your off topic tangent to begin with. GRASPING.

Get it? Good.

ConanTheStoner

Actually the very first thing I said before you came out of nowhere in my intial posts was that I was wrong until WWU releases. So uh, shut up? Learn to read?

1. Wrong. go back and read your post. It was quoted by multiple people, including myself.

2. Even if you would have originally (which you did later), that is grasping. The point you attempted to make fell flat on its ass. So now you're back pedaling trying to save face... as if it matters.

You're not going to win a prize for being right, but in this case you're wrong.

Getting upset and telling me to shut up doesn't help you at all.

1.Not wrong use math. 2.What am I back peddling? You are the one that stated I did it later I admitted I was wrong in the first place, does not change the fact GTA will be on top at the point WWU comes out, especially with GTAV included. 3.Telling you to shut up keeps making you panic and go back and change things that were never said.

Buddy you're the one that brought up GTA in a Zelda topic.

You can say neither are good. That's fine, its all a matter of preference. But they're both among the most well received gaming series of all time.

And I believe the phrase "grasping for straws" is lost on you. You're the one trying too hard to support your flimsy argument and misinformation. I'm simply hitting you the facts. So who is grasping here?

Exactly.

ConanTheStoner

Hitting me with facts you have no proof of? How is it misinformation when counting rated re-releases/Remakes Zelda losses but if you don't Zelda wins? You are spreading misinformation.

Just reach a little further. Grasp and the straws will come.

ConanTheStoner

It's the only reason people say Zelda is better than GTA for the sole reason that(on MC) that they don't include re-releases/remakes. Also neither are that good so I think you are grasping at straws thinking I am tied to one or the other.

Might as well rename them Godolith Soft, they have improved so much since Nintendo acquired them. This has potential to be THE jrpg killer app for a while, it's not like final fantasy can too them.WreckEm711
There hasn't been a Jrpg "Killer App" Since the Wrpgs mostly on PC finally moved to consoles gens ago, and it will stay like that.

[QUOTE="DerveCreaves"][QUOTE="Nanomage"]

It´s true,someone even posted a thread with an article by a major finace company last year here on the forums,don´t know wich though,wich pretty much confirmed that as far as revenue goes,the EU was a bigger market than the US for games.

And its a well known fact that asia is the biggest one,and asia isnt just japan.

V3rciS

DUDE, the games that made the highest amount of money in gaming are from freaking America and most of those profits were from American buyers, this is common sense. Asia is not a bigger gaming market in NA, and Japan is not a bigger gaming country than the U.S.

Man it's just common sense:

NA population 330m (USA 300m + 30m of Canada)
EU population 500m
Asia population 3.8 billion

We are talking profit not actual individual sales shipments.
