Fair play to the guy for standing up to some tough questions. It must be hard to run a company like this, and although there have been bad experiences I am pleased that they exist and do what they do. I'm one of the lucky ones who hasn't been burned though.
Hasn't stopped them churning out their 16 bit mini consoles. They're not a retro company sure but their hardware is. It's really a shame they aren't open to exposing more people to the Saturn and Dreamcast because they never got their day in the sun. The libraries were fantastic. They just use the brands to exploit for merch now. Considering they're relaunching JSR and Crazy Taxi it would make sense to me, plus buying for these consoles is a huge cost. I want SA2.
I'm glad you brought up the Wii Virtual Console. It was underrated. They make such a fuss over the NSO with trailers and stuff but it is nothing compared to the Wii. It's just annoying you have to use the awkward controller that plugs into the wiimote
@Rioichi He's right though. It's a completely unique experience and a brilliantly coded game. I went to a talk with the father of Banjo Gregg Mayles and he said it's some of the best code ever written at Rare. I get that it's different and you don't have to like it, but hating on it doesn't make you a bigger fan or make the originals better.

Re: Anniversary: Smash Bros. Turns 25 Today
The style of this game is still my favourite. The art, music and UI are all so cool. This game blew my mind when I first saw it.
