You know, if people don't want to be overshadowed by big releases, smaller companies could try to put their games on more PC platforms than just Steam.

Most places outside the biggest storefronts aren't going to get Oblivion Remastered for a long time, if ever, especially if they're DRM-Free like the three linked. It's all about getting your stuff out in front of every niche possible.

The natural result f a lack of competition outside America. Get ready for $1000 consoles and $200 games once the Xbox eventually dies in the US as well.

Damn shame, all of this.

Yeah, I don't get it. I'm kinda sick of the lazy remaster economy at this point. It's not my fault Microsoft bought a company that forgot how to make great games.

@emptyname: At this point, I don't even know how Hello Games makes money. Have they even released anything since NMS? Not that I'm complaining, but I would like to see this company continue past NMS.

@rohanrocks88: Yep. Maybe a game or two a year worth even looking at on a sale. Reminds me, FF16 is $40 now,gotta hit the best buy and pick that up.

Seriously, though, the big budget gaming industry is making a HUGE mistke forsaking the masses to pursue upper-class clientele, and now we can't even count on Nintendo to pick up the pieces when it all goes to pot.

Well, hopefully the burning of the mainstream industry incentivizes more indies to put their games on GOG and similar platforms.

So the big thing is the open world? You mean what Forza Horizon offered ages back?

Enjoy the fanboy money, Nintendo. I'm just gonna chill until this industry comes to its senses.

I still don't get how Nintendo relates to anything. Rare is a Microsoft studio, and Microsoft has already re-released the original Perfect Dark game. I fail to see how Goldeneye is any different.

@mooglestar: I expect that to become more common among older gamers and smarter parents. Teens and fanboys are a lost cause in the slop era we live in now.

@Slash_out: The tariffs don't justify the price because the price was decided long before the tariffs. Let's be real. Nintendo is doing this because they can, and no other reason.

@maximus1983: I imagine any deal involving significant decrease of tariffs of US goods into Vietnam will be more than enough. The tariffs, bar the obvious China, are all because if tariffs other countries have on our goods. That Vietnam is willing to negotiate is a good sign.
