Dream land and some Mayo castle from the n64 smash, and one from street fighter 2. Brown. Woody. Good.

DLC is winning now? Neat

Nintendo has had to change their strategy in order to survive. The same people supporting this DLC said Nintendo would never go this route because DLC is a lovely business strategy. Now here we are.

But yeah, DLC is not winning, it's not saving a console that is still lagging way behind even the Xbox One.

It's just super weird seeing people say they are happy about DLC for a game and a console they don't even own.

The Saturn. It would have helped if the third-party devs had been told this, since at the time they were expecting another 8 months to prepare games for "launch." They also pissed off the retailers who weren't part of the inner circle (Kaybee Toys, a big deal at the time, felt spurned hard enough that they pulled all Sega merchandise from their shelves), and gave Sony the opening to undercut them with their $299 launch price announcement for the PS1.

I think "right now" is different when you're talking about a console (which depends on a software library which had better be ready for your surprise move) versus some form of software which is immediately ready for download/purchase.

No i'm not, you're just being overly sensitive, chill out. It's just some of the reactions to the DLC are absurd and some posters are laughing about that. You getting your undies in a bunch over it makes it even funnier.

Seems a bit weird you seem to think that everyone saying they're excited for it doesn't actually own the console or game though.

Working at a big publisher gives people a lot of experience at making high-production games, even if you don't always work on the stuff that you might want to. Once in a while, people inside of the company with a whole lot of accrued experience want to make something different. If they're good and lucky enough, the company lets them roll with it until it becomes something really unexpected from a large publisher. They are love projects born from the stars aligning.
