Some thoughts.
Great games sell consoles.
Game publishers should not abandon physical media.
Games are not a service.
Games are an artform that people desire to collect, enjoy, share and experience again and again.

What happened earlier with Mog made me pretty upset. It's important to share your memories, good days, and whatever brings you peace.
The world is cruel. Life is hard. If all you can do is be miserable, narcissistic, or both when someone shares something heartfelt?
YOU are the problem, not them.

90s gaming wasn’t a hobby.
It was sacred.
Blowing on cartridges. That PS1 startup sound. The chunky gray N64 controller. Memory cards. Nintendo Power. Strategy guides. No internet. No updates. Just you and the game.
We didn’t know it then, but those were the golden days💙🎮

Final Fantasy, like many '80s franchises, had relatively humble beginnings. In Square's early days they were a fairly successful developer on computers, but after moving their headquarters and several of their Famicom Disk System games underperformed in sales, they struggled financially.
