>BING BING WAHOO GOOD
>GTA BAD

that's actually depressing

>1999
>Donkey Kong
An arcade game from 1981 was the top seller in 1999? I would have thought maybe Donkey Kong 64 would have hit the top spot considering it was brand new that year and was the hit ticket holiday item but I'm impressed the Arcade classic pulled it through in the end.

Mario and Zelda are cool, GTA sucks

I know you get confused since you browse there so often, but this is Zig Forums, not reddit.

Here we goooo!

>sony is responsible for the games that 3rd party devs make

The post that killed nintendogaf.

Oh, I'm sure white people would find a way to ruin everything without Sony's help.

Sony introduced paid DLC (digital and physical), paid online and tried to DRM even physical games while selling subpar dated hardware at exceptionally high prices.

>all of that FPS nigger simulator crap had also been released on PC
lmao cope

sony didn't introduce paid online, microsoft did and they followed after while still having a shit tier online. PS plus must be the worst paid service I ever trialed in my life
and don't forget nintendo introduced perma $60 for every game, outlawed video game rental in japan an tried to do the same in the US, almost everything you pointed out in that post, nintendo did those too

Pretty sure he was being ironic with his post by blaming Sony for things Microsoft and Nintendo started.

PS Plus

>One of the most infamous examples of DLC on consoles was the Horse Armor DLC package released on the Xbox Live Marketplace in 2006 for the Bethesda Softworks game The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, that fans criticized as useless and overpriced.[6] However, by 2009, the Horse Armor DLC was one of the top ten content packs that Bethesda had sold, which justified the DLC model for future games.
This is the saddest thing ever.

>Complaining about Smash sequels when there's been one per console generation
Still pissy about sonygaf?

People that are mad at Fifa are children that can't comprehend that it's natural for the most popular sport of all time to produce the most popular games.

Not only that, people are implying Sony is responsible for gamers' taste. It would make more sense complaining about Sony being responsible for making gaming more popular in the 2000's.

Anyone want a follow-up to that image going into detail just how many classic franchises met their end on the PS2? There are a lot.

>how many classic franchises met their end on the PS2?
Are you retarded? You think they wouldn't meet their end if they were on a 20 million selling nintendo platform just because you hate sony?

We have evidence to the fact, yes. What's your point?

>a smaller userbase would sustain more IPs I-I swear guys!!
what a retard.

>bethesda introduced paid dlc
the og xbox LAUNCHED with paid dlc available for one of it's launch titles.

Remember castlevania? Remember how it was exclusive to nintendo handheld hardware? Remember how it sold less and less with every game? Bet you don't

No shit. The PS1 was the birth of the movie game.

It's literally why FF main series left Nintendo - they wanted to make movies instead of games and N64 wasn't capable of doing that.
