Launch Games 2

[@GameSack]

So I kinda messed up the delivery of the Jaguar "joke". At first I say Jaguar as I normally do (Jag-whar) but of course Brits pick that apart because how dare anyone pronounce anything differently than they do... so I rub it in by saying JAG-WIRE which is even worse. But instead it comes off as me thinking Brits pronounce it as Jag Wire which isn't what I intended. Oh well. I just wanted to trigger some Brits, but instead it's just comes off as confusing. I'll get y'all next time though!

My new favorite thing as an old man is skipping the launch, waiting a year, then picking up the launch games for like five bucks each. This worked so well for PS3 and 360

[@MungkaeX]

That strategy has less success with Nintendo platforms. I think the Switch is the first Nintendo Console I’ve seen in 30 years which the 1st party games I’ve seen on any type of sale till multiple years later (usually for their respective Best Sellers Program).

PS5 launch games don't seem to be getting discounts. Sony loves their new $70 price point.

[@Lost_n_Found_1]

The difference between generations is so minimal these days, I now wait until they release the revised version of the console, lol. By then, there's a great library to choose from, better storage and performance, cheaper prices, win win win, lol.

[@technozombie789]

@@Jesse__H the "value" of games generally doesn't change. Nintendo specifically keeps prices high because they want to appear as a premium brand like Apple.

One note about Raiden Project: you actually can get proper TATE mode with controls properly rotated as well, it just requires a gameshark/action replay code to be used, but once you make a save after using that code it will retain the option as long as you don't go into the options menu and change it back until you use the code again

Thank you! I just put an old tv rotated sideways in an empty arcade cabinet and I hope this solves my control issue.

I'm so upset that Greendog wasn't a launch title. It would have sold a million units within the console's first hour of release.

[@ClexYoshi]

3:23 I... can kinda get the dialogue there. I believe that that's where Bat and Kenshiro first meet up after the time skip that leads to Hokuto no Ken 2. in Kenshiro's absence, he founded a group called the North Star army and, in a teary eyed reunion with the man who inspired him to be better, Bat tells Kenshiro that he can't wait for Lin to see that he's back, while Kenshiro comments that Bat has bulked up and become a real man, that he has the look of a hero about him.

[@LonSeidman]

On the N64 - didn't need much of a launch lineup mostly because you couldn't get a console :). I remember it being in very short supply for at least 8 months to a year after launch. By the time we found one for my brother there were already a few more games out like Star Wars, Wave Race, etc.

[@JoshuaJacobs83]

Sony took inspiration for that with the PS5. Still waiting for a killer app…and a console available to purchase in my area

[@inceptional]

Only console I've ever lined up to get on day one (at like 1 in the morning no less), and it was extremely amazing to experiene Mario 64 when I got home and popped it in for the first time, especially given the dedication and energy I'd put into actually getting the console the moment it was available. I even sold my PlayStation just so I could afford to get the N64, and although I did actually really enjoy the PlayStation and some of its games (WipEout and Doom were real highlights for me), I don't regret that decision. Man, the joy I got out of my N64....

[@kenrickkahn]

I wanted a N64, my mother Couldn't get one for a year so when I got my N64 I had *Bomber Man* The one he fought different enemies during the Adventure mode..

[@PeteSkerritt]

I got *extremely* lucky on launch day. I walked into a Lechmere Home Goods store, and there was ONE console left. I (of course) snagged that-- along with Super Mario 64 and Pilotwings 64.

[@gameguy73]

I did manage to get the N64 as launch. Other than Mario 64 though, there wasn't much else to buy it for. Honestly, you were better off getting it later as games were very slow to come out in the first months of the system.

Totally forgot how deep the Playstation launch library was. Shows the level of investment Sony made in not only marketing but up-front game development. I went with Destruction Derby and NBA Jam.

Fun Fact: One of the Developers of NBA Jam is a die hard Detroit Pistons' fan so he snuck in a code where every time the Chicago Bulls play the Detroit Pistons the Bulls would always play like they never played a game of basketball in their lives or miss the final shot if the Pistons were up by one or two points.. The Bulls were only programmed to have problems with only the Pistons but play as normal wit every other team..

I paused grading projects for work so I could watch this... and seeing your extended focus on the PlayStation launch was *awesome*. Although I only bought two launch games on September 9th-- Ridge Racer (of course) and NBA Jam: Tournament Edition, it wasn't long before I bought Air Combat and ESPN Extreme Games. Namco sure had PlayStation development dialed in (thanks, System 11!). I still give the nod for my favorite console launch lineup to the Dreamcast. I dropped well over $700 on launch day, between the console, games, and accessories. I was working for FuncoLand at the time, so I didn't get to personally enjoy the launch at home like I wanted to... but the flip side of that was that I had the chance to play through (and beat!) Sonic Adventure and Blue Stinger at the store before the games came out! Thanks, as always, for your hard work. I've been binge-watching a lot of these videos and it's been a blast revisiting them while staying current when new content comes. You've helped to make these last 15 months (and counting) more bearable.

[@troposphincter]

Maybe I was a little too young or maybe we were a little too poor in my district, but I can't remember anyone in my school talking about the playstation at its launch. We didn't notice it until the likes of Tomb Raider or Crash Bandicoot were released. Most of us still played the SNES or the Megadrive in 1997.

[@brandonginsburg3120]

I was an adolescent in the USA at the time. I was practically totally unaware of the PlayStation until Fall 1997. That's pretty bad when you consider that I knew about the 3DO, the Saturn and even the Jaguar at the time. But when a friend of a friend showed us his PSX, I was really impressed. And the marketing for FFVII was huge.

A superb soundtrack, fun challenging gameplay and a good variety of missions. It's a little short but if you play it on hard it'll last you enough imo. Ace Combat 2 was better in pretty much every way except the challenge, I found it a lot easier than the first game for some reason.
