    For anyone wondering, the zeebo is a brazilian indie console with a tiny library, with Resident Evil 4 as it's one big game.

    • @digerttm

      deathpyre42 It has some shitty budget games on what I'm assuming is linux based. And also Resi 4

      I have one. Unfortunately, it's impossible to put any more games on it since its network services died. I don't have RE4 on mine, but yeah, it's an awful fucking mobile port.

    Man, I miss Viewtiful Joe. It's a shame Capcom shut down Clover Studios, thus relegating Joe to a roster slot in whichever Capcom crossover fighting game they roll out.
    Clover Studios was, of course, reborn as Platinum Games. But Platinum is wary about working with Capcom again, so Viewtiful Joe feels more like the child of a divorced couple and Capcom is the lousier parent to get full custody.

      100% correct. To be fair, VJ2 didn't shape up (great gameplay but the story was off on 80% of its beats and Sylvia didn't add anything to the action) and the other two titles, I didn't play. Mayb there wasn't much hope for VJ as a series in any case - yet a man can dream.

    The Gamecube had a fantastic game library on the whole... and honestly if any 2-3 decent exclusives would have stayed that way it'd probably have a really solid reputation. But eventually you lose your exclusive Tales of Symphonia and your Capcom games, nobody pays attention to Custom Robo for some reason, and you end up the 'ehhhh' of Nintendo to a lot of folks.

    • @travistotle
      @travistotle Před 7 lety +45

      Sure there were some advantages, but the way the industry was moving towards the cinematic made optical the natural choice. Nintendo sticking to cartridges is what lead to Final Fantasy 7 and Metal Gear Solid moving to Sony, which became the Playstation's biggest games. Who knows where Nintendo would've been if they hadn't made that mistake.

      Well the 3DS was still a major success due to it only competing with the PSVita, and the 3D gimmick is ignored by pretty much everyone at this point, due to it not being mandatory on any games (Unlike a certain Starfox game on a certain home console that shoves its gimmicks down your throat).

      There were quite a few reasons the Gamecube failed commercially the biggest one being the atrocious manner in which it was released to Europe which to this day is Sony's biggest market demographic. The Gamecube came out 2 years after the PS2 in it's most dominant region with no backwards compatibility, an exclusive approach to 3rd party developers unlike the PS2's open approach and just a general lack of effort in all regions outside of America.
      That loss taught Nintendo a harsh lesson one that was learnt by the DS and Wii which remain Nintendo's best selling consoles of all time thanks to a HUGE array of developer support and fair cost for buyers.

      Joel Schembri If you play some of the Nintendo Eshop games, like Xeodrifter, Mutant Mudds, Witch and Hero, Bit Boy! Arcade, Cubit the Hardcore Platformer Robot, Box Boy, Pullblocks, and The Denpa Men, you'll find some real gems at the same price as steam games. They also have some really good ports like Cave Story, Binding of Isaac Rebirth, VVVVVV, Shovel Knight, and a port of most classic games from the NES and SNES.

    • @MrOmegatronic
      @MrOmegatronic Před 3 lety

      To be fair, when the best thing that can be learned there is "Don't bother fighting Nintendo in the handheld market, they're Kenshiro and you are already dead", I can see why Sony wouldn't listen. xD

    • @jwil4286
      @jwil4286 Před 3 lety +1

      @@MrOmegatronic true, but my point was that the Game Gear and Nomad were basically portable versions of their home consoles (ie, they were too powerful for their own good). Sony then made the PS Vita, which was on par with the PS3, but development for those systems are too expensive.
      (Extra Credits explained this a lot better years ago in their video about why the Vita failed)

    The GameCube was a good console. Not only did it have great games, it had the best controller in all of gaming history. Just thinking about it makes me want to set fire to a Wiimote.

    • @RoboBoddicker
      @RoboBoddicker Před 6 lety +1

      Hell yes. At least the Wii had the good sense to make most of its games compatible with the GC controller.

    • @MrOmegatronic
      @MrOmegatronic Před 3 lety

      Hmm... yeah, that sounds about right.
      • Making the main button the largest face button on the controller instantly solves the biggest issue with controller schemes, by making it perfectly clear which button is meant to do what (and, with any reasonable dev, what button _will_ do what in the default control scheme): The big A button handles the most important game function(s) and menu accept, the secondary B button handles menu cancel and the second-most important game function(s), and other buttons are flexible secondary features.
      • Triggers are pressure-sensitive with palpable feedback, allowing them to provide more functionality than purely digital triggers.
      • The C stick handles camera controls much more smoothly than the N64's C buttons, and is responsive enough (and just as importantly, remappable enough) to handle whatever other task if camera control isn't important.
      • The overall button layout makes everything easy to access, and will be trivially memorised in an hour or two tops.
      Only real issues are that it didn't have stick buttons since they hadn't caught on yet, and that it kept the N64's knee Z instead of going with dual shoulder triggers.

    • @matthewmuir8884
      @matthewmuir8884 Před 3 lety

      The GameCube controller was fantastic, but I honestly think the Wii Remote is underrated; it was certainly flawed (no second stick for camera controls), but IR-pointer aiming was fantastic. I loved using the bow in the Wii version of Twilight Princess because aiming was a breeze. I honestly kind-of miss it (though gyro aim on the Wii U and Switch is still good).
