@KitsuneNight Another example that doesn't get a lot of credit: Gene Coon on Star Trek. Everyone venerates Gene Roddenberry for creating everything wholesale, when Coon created Starfleet Command, the United Federation of Planets, the Prime Directive, Klingons, Khan Noonien Singh, and Zephram Cochran, to name a few. He died of throat cancer at 49 in 1973. Roddenberry trampled over his grave to mythologize himself.

If the movie is successful, which I doubt, it won't be because it's attached to a moldy fighting IP from the 1990s that only fans remember.

Sega does what Nintendon't.... fail out of the console industry.

@no_donatello Shenmue is easily one of the most overrated games ever made, and I curse it every day for making QTEs a thing that exists.

THE FUTURE IS NOW.

@__Fearnavigatr It was a British poll, and Banjo-Kazooie were made by a British company. The fix is in. The correct answer is Mario & Luigi.

Sham. It's Mario & Luigi.

@chefgon Because the GBA D-pad is on a flat surface with empty space surrounding it, while the GameCube D-pad is on a recessed round housing crowding both analog sticks. It's an afterthought on GameCube, put there only because every controller has one, with no thought on what it's for.

How hideous. Most overrated controller of all time.

@Kevember As someone born in 1983, I don't see much point in it, either. Maybe tone down the condescension?

@Ponyo404 @Krull The English came up with the word soccer to differentiate association football from original football (which is closer to rugby than either soccer or american football), not the US. Then, you passed it to the US, and went back to calling your sport football. Now you get all puffed upped because we never stopped calling our sport football, even when the rules changed. So stop blaming us, because the fact that your sport is called soccer is your fault.

Sponsor patches on sports jerseys always look like garbage to me. I'm glad America hasn't followed this trend for the most part.

@JayJ While SoA was responsible for the 32x being made, it's failure, just like every other Sega mistake, was the fault of SoJ. SoJ hated the changes SoA made to Sonic, which made him a worldwide success. If it were up to SoJ, Sonic would have had a human girlfriend..... wait, why does that sound familiar?

Also, the Mega Drive/Genesis was a massive hit in America and Europe, largely thanks to SoA's marketing and packing Sonic 1 with the system, a move SoJ's board vehemently despised. Guess what? The Mega Drive was a failure in Japan, so SoJ pushed development of Saturn, which was a bigger hit than the Mega Drive only in Japan, but it was still only a modest hit there. Then SoJ forced SoA to surprise release the Saturn early in the US with only 6 games and a stock shortage that only pissed off retail partners that refused to carry the Saturn as a result. This was all on Sega of Japan, not Sega of America. If it weren't for Tom Kalinske, the Genesis would have been a failure, too.
