This was the most profitable Disney+ Show Pilot you mean
1 year ago today, ‘Moana 2’ hit theaters.

The film became a global phenomenon, grossing $1 BILLION worldwide and finishing as 2024’s third highest-grossing movie.

So like remember when Mai Shiranui was DLC for DOA5 only to be pretty much delisted as a character meaning you can't even play as her but she still has a roster slot so like yeah you can SEE HER IN THE GAME YOU JUST CAN'T PLAY AS HER SHE'S NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO OBTAIN

Theory that SF4 Ultra Combos are pretty much the big reason why "Cinematic Super Moves" are a thing in fighting games

Literally the only way to play these games officially now is either through the arcades in Yakuza games or digitally purchasing the collection of all three games using a JPN PSN account.

These games deserve more love and attention aside from being the grandpappy of the Gundam VS games
Happy 30th anniversary to Cyber Troopers Virtual-On!

One of my all time favorite Sega series!

They've given up on it for years now! 🙃

The most commonly shared Batman: The Animated Series art are the backgrounds, but I'd like to offer something similarly terrific: Its amazing array of goons.

It's still funny how the Big Green Dub Voice Actors are still active and still getting work on stuff (they just did the Grendizer game) but it's a shame that most of their work is mostly tied to Ubisoft and Quantic Dream because I want them to be freed from the two shittiest companies in France-

If people have limited income and you literally always release an upgraded version of your game then it's a smart idea to wait. It's pretty obvious. Even games with season passes massively benefit from waiting, you can get the game + season pass for launch price on sale. Look at KCD2.
Sega has admitted sales of its games may be lower-than-expected due to players awaiting "definitive editions" before buying. https://bit.ly/4imXUqA

I remember them saying they were definitely not going to do a Royal Edition and then, like you said, the last third just blazing by and leaving you with something like 30 extra days on 4 month calendar made me just not believe them at all.
As someone who never really was interested in the Persona games, but liked Metaphor, the incomplete and rushed nature of the last third of the game (an entire subcontinent and character arc reduced to a single confusing cutscene) has me -way- less interested in buying a "Complete" version.
Also like, Atlus did it so often and so consistently and so fast it always felt like you were paying to beta test the next one.

This is an economic indicator. Younger people with tons of free time have less money for games and the entire hobby is skewing more expensive and older. As incomes drop and time ALSO becomes scarce then waiting for discounts just gets more and more appealing.

To be blunt it gets a lot easier to wait as you get older. I'm streaming games and I still am letting tons of shit pass me by. If I was working a regular job I'd basically play 2-3 games a year, there'd be absolutely no reason for me to ever get anything on release. Also - 1/2
I have no problem buying a better version of a game 2-3 years later because I play games on release, its a replay incentive

I will not be crying about 60 dollars I paid 3 years ago, why would I consider this. I'm not lamenting the 15 bucks I spent at McDonalds last month either.

The definitive edition re-release has been a thing since the 90s and generally has been a net positive for those games.

So many of my favorite games are a refined re-release of an original game. International versions, Final Mixes, Royals ect.

Replacing them with DLC is a net negative.

If Kiwami 3 comes out and Sega mysteriously decides to remove all existence of the 3 Remaster on storefronts, then we may actually see true Hell.

it's like 5x the file size with a phoned-in dub and cutscenes that absolve all the characters of any wrongdoing, pure misery

you should buy Y0 before this btw; the Director's Cut is a markedly worse experience and isn't even done BY the director of Y0

The worst part is, this isn't even like Sonic Generations, where, yes, X Shadow officially replaced it on store fronts, but you can still get the original thru Bundles because Sega respects the modding community that much.

Sega kinda has no good excuse here.

Yakuza is the only series that I know that went from having heavily discounted games in order to get the foot out the door to now making strange decisions left right & center.
