A Classic Nintendo Game Gets A Surprise Port & Sega Is Trying This Again? | News Wave

[@Deseko]

Ugh. My wife and I have canceled all our streaming services. We just buy what we want to play, listen and watch. We already have a substantial game collection, and now our movie and music collection is growing nicely.

[@summeraethers]

I am against Sega’s new game streaming service if it’s truly streaming and not download. When Hurricane Helene hit me, I lost power for an entire week and so did most places in my area. Lara Croft Tomb Raider on steam saved me. I would come home from a 2:30pm-11:30pm work shift to no power, no heat, no AC, nothing. I would go to a gas station for pre-packaged food, take it home and eat it while playing Lara Croft. I had never played the game before but I did it out of boredom and I honestly had a lot of fun with it!!! I would charge my laptop at work, and then play the game when I get home. The battery would last about an hour and 15 minutes, but it gave me something tot take my mind off the doom and gloom that was the hurricane

[@Akechi_The_Phantom_Detective]

To be fair, I think Sega fans will be as well simply for the fact their main franchise (Sonic) is one that heavily supports modding and I can't imagine a single one of them would be willing to discard earlier titles for ones that've allowed their community to grow. I'm not against a SubService as long as real access (download or physical) is viable because a lot services just don't interest me.

[@Crayshen]

I genuinely thought for a while their netflix-like service was going to be Genesis Classics considering they were parceling stuff out game by game for a bit before dumping it. They keep doing stuff like this, see Sega Forever.....and I keep buying in. What am I going to do with eight copies of Columns?!

[@burritobison7700]

@ the thing is I would say exclusives yeah they are bigger, but as a whole I would say Xbox and PlayStation are bigger by the fact they can use 3rd party games as well as their exclusives. Sega doesn’t have the luxury of having black ops 6 as a day one on game pass for example

[@NecroBanana]

Sega is a company well-known for their high risk, low reward scenarios.

[@fritzthecat8158]

And I absolutely love them for it lol

[@Akechi_The_Phantom_Detective]

And during a time of endless lay-off's and disgraceful business practices Sega are one of very few companies who've excelled this year. The Sonic franchise has done exceptionally well, Persona/SMT/Metaphor have done wonders for Atlus and Unicorn Overlord ended up being a treasure in itself. I won't say it was perfect after all they did let go of Relic and we've yet to see how that'll resolve itself but I'm going to give Sega come credit this year. That said, it seems their plan is pretty clear pull their titles from digital stores to leverage them as a subscription service but to be frank I'd be surprised if that yielded any sort of major results.

[@Noname15514]

@@Akechi_The_Phantom_Detective Not really on the gaming front. Sega is invested in ESG as they censored Sonic Generations for the sake of being w0ke.

[@ElComanche]

🤣 amen. I love them for that reason, but I won’t be subscribing. I’m over subscriptions.

[@VOAN]

At this point a subscription service is not high risk, it's more a "well everyone is doing it so why not us" kind of opportunity. They're doing it cause everyone is doing it.

[@dans9644]

Subscriptions are terrible. We need less of them

[@squirrelconsole7355]

Definitely, there are to many of them, don't need them.

[@TheInfinityMaster1]

I'm an old-style gamer. I don't buy subscriptions (not even online subscriptions). I just buy a console, buy a physical singleplayer/offline game, finish the game and move on to the next one. (If there ever was a game I wanted to play multiplayer online, like TMNT Shredder's Revenge for example, I will just play that on PC/Steam where no subscriptions are required to play online).

[@HolyLSD]

If a subscription is decent like game pass, I don't mind, huge value in game pass for me. Nintendo subscription no way it blows.

[@HoroJoga]

So that's why Sega removed their collections from stores. And I thought they would make a new collection... so naive of me.

[@RockstarMazy]

I'm not alone in not wanting to pay for another streaming service. I'd rather just buy what I want outright. if there's no option to buy just the games I want, I won't be using the service...

I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again. I’m not a fan of subscription services for games. The cost is one thing, but I also much prefer actually owning my games given that I actually do go back and revisit titles sometimes years later.

[@mikeuk666]

I wasn't originally but the amount of games I am now able to go through for a small amount has been amazing

[@RedGryz]

@@mikeuk666And that’s perfectly understandable. You’re someone for whom it is a good value proposition, and I’m glad it works out for you as such. A decade ago I might have been in your shoes, but these days I find myself more on the “high interest, low energy/time” side of the slider, so I don’t game nearly as prolifically as I used to. There’s also the issue that a very large number of gamers hyper-focus on a single game to the exclusion of all other titles (think your annual CoD/Madden/FIFA(FC) players) for whom such a prospect would be a terrible value proposition (and I assume it will come eventually given the general shift in attitude in most gaming company board rooms).

Sega wants to start a streaming service? I got a better idea, modernize some of the older titles. Like Phantasy Star 1 & 2. Those would be great as action RPG remakes.

[@yoshikinanami7434]

[@xOpenmikeknight]

Sega has come to the “die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain” point of their lifespan. Streaming services are cool sometimes but BOY HOWDY am I exhausted of having to buy ANOTHER subscription for 1-2 games or shows.

[@VOAN]

It would work if Sega know how to do it, Stadia and OnLive only failed cause they did it wrong. They charge you full price to buy a cloud game rather than having a monthly subscription service that charge a small fee that had every game available.

[@thewatcher9500]

I want a sonic adventure 2 remake so bad

[@Akechi_The_Phantom_Detective]

I think it needs a sequel more than a remake and hey we just had Shadow Generations and The Shadow 3 Movie pay homage to that maybe we're not too far off. I'll happily huff some copium.

[@qphlat27]

Who didn't see a SEGA subscription service coming..? They claim the mini consoles are too difficult and expensive to make and then delist their classic games. What did you think they were up to?

[@Akechi_The_Phantom_Detective]

To be fair, Mini Consoles I'd say are more a supply and demand thing than a "too difficult" to make thing unless you're talking about actual elaborate hardware like the Sega Saturn or the 32x drive but the sub service I don't see it holding up especially with the emulation scene and modding scene for most Sega consoles having been figured out.

[@Motorheadache95]

Well now we know why Sega delisted their Classics collection and a bunch of their games on various platforms.

I'd honestly pay 5 dollars a month for a slightly updated SEGA Channel. Give me all that Genesis music twang and console nostalgia. Maybe throw in some Saturn and 32X games, a Dreamcast game or two.
