So like, instead of shields made of metal or other alloy they would be shields formed of layers of heated water. Didn'... |

| Started Torchlight 2 and I like it a lot more than the original so far. I actually beat the first torchlight. The first 50% was fun, the next 40% was an exercise in constitution, the last 10% was beating the final boss who was a prick. Here's my problem. I have a list of games that I want to beat, ... |

First off, yes, market segmentation techniques are extremely sophisticated and as soon as a trend is detected (or invented), BAM, you're a target for their marketing campaign or they make a new product to attract your dollars. But there is another angle to this that I haven... |

The original Metal Gear was for the MSX2 which had no real traction in the U.S. It was big in Japan, Brazil, and some European countries but never took off here. So even if somebody wanted to bring it out here, there was no market for it because t... |

I'm writing an article about Famicom/SNES/Mega Drive games that never made it to the States/Canada in their original form. They may have come out later as a compilation (Final Fantasy V on PS1 or GBA) ... |

So, I think I"m going to take a crack at this and see what happens. I'm going with the top famicom/super famicom games that never made it to N.A. in their original format.
I'll happily take any suggestions you guys have. |

Find my thoughts about the PS4, change any reference to PS4 to XBox, insert here and that's about it. Consoles are dead to me for the most part.
I see consoles like they see Wild Gunman in Back to the Future 2 - babies toys. |
