Aside from ‘it’s a crypto exchange’ is there any big hope on the horizon for FTX collapsing? Getting tired of seeing their poo poo everywhere and since they seem to be trying to buy up the fresh carcasses it seems fitting.

the ouya failed because they only went after indie devs with mobile game success, and it turns out that making a game that works on mobile is actually different than making a game that works on console, and the people they were targeting didn't really have the bandwidth to do a console port with no guaranteed payoff

Getting tired of seeing their poo poo everywhere and since they seem to be trying to buy up the fresh carcasses it seems fitting. annoyingly they appear to be the ones that are going to absorb the corpses of everyone else and manage to survive, there is always hope however that they'll end up hilariously overextending themselves and collapsing under their own weight more falafel please posted:the ouya failed because they only went after indie devs with mobile game success, and it turns out that making a game that works on mobile is actually different than making a game that works on console, and the people they were targeting didn't really have the bandwidth to do a console port with no guaranteed payoff it also failed because it was hilariously underpowered even by the mobile standards of the time (it used an nvidia tegra 3, which was a 2 year old chip by the time the ouya launched), not to mention incredibly badly built because they had to somehow hit the $99 price point. they got beaten to market by basically everyone else including nvidia themselves who had the shield portable out a month after the ouya's public launch with a faster chip and better library. there was some talk around its launch that even if the ouya itself didn't take off the box might still be worth it as a small emulation console but it wasn't even good enough for that njsykora fucked around with this message at 21:53 on Jul 4, 2022 |

Endless Mike posted:they did release the lapboard, which was definitely not what they were originally advertising. it was a piece of poo poo, but it was a thing that existed so the phantom was arguably a better investment than the majority of crypto garbage purely by virtue of actually having produced something, indicating that the people behind it weren't actually planning to take the money and run as soon as they were done raising funds?

Hypothetical valuation based on unrealized future earnings from projects that hadn't even broken ground is exactly what did Enron in
