Concept: NFL Streep, where every player is Meryl Streep. You'd only have to license one celebrity voice and likeness!

Reminds me of when there was some sort of legal debacle over allegedly stolen tech used in vibrating controllers during the Xbox/PS2/GameCube era. Sony got sued while Nintendo was laughing because they developed their own tech. Microsoft of course just bought them out.

Lady Naga posted:Does anyone know what the gently caress happened to the entire genre of arcade-y sports games? I understand that with EA just outright buying the NFL license it's a lot harder to make a successful football game that isn't Madden but the only surviving type of arcade sport is racing, and even that is dwindling. Even with the indie boom it's been like three or four years and there's not a single NBA Jam-alike or even something like Mutant Football League. why aren't there any good football games of any stripe for the PC? (also perhaps check out Frozen Cortex?)

not being allowed to use the NFL in any form for your football game severely limits the scope of the culture you can focus on

When I lived in Sudbury there was a pretty kickass arcade in the Rainbow Mall too that featured the 4-player X-Men game and Marvel Super Heroes. My white whale is finding an arcade that has a Splatterhouse cabinet.

Oh right I forgot about soul calibur I don't have fond memories of Playdium because I went there while on vacation with my family and I didn't have any friends or family my age with me. I just went there with my older cousin who didnt play anything

Accordion Man posted:It pays to live in Chicago because Galloping Ghost in Brookfield is the poo poo. It has pretty much all the arcade games you could ever want, even ones that didn't technically exist like Primal Rage 2. The galloping ghost is extremely good. It's like a nostalgic memory of arcade gaming but somehow even better.

GTA has faithfully served the role since the old 2D games. Even Saints Row got the murder/rampage thing right. It seems redundant to have a game dedicated to the concept with shittier production values.

I dunno, I mean if you're basing a system on the Android poo poo it will be a goldmine if you're the Action Replay/Gameshark people. That and since Nintendo is moving to Mobile games it's probably to have mobile games be ported on there and mobile games are always poo poo and utter garbage.

The key words in what I said are "proprietary hack;" I don't think there's anything in the Android license saying they can't lock everything down themselves and attempt to block rooting. It would also allow them to break compatibility with non-Nintendo devices for apps designed to run on their thing. Basically this could mean anything from "we are just putting stock Android on our next thing like dumbasses" to "our next system is technically based off the Android kernel, but might as well be a custom OS."
