SEGA ANNOUNCES THEY ARE OFFICIALLY MAKING ONLY MOBILE GAMES FROM NOW ON, NO MORE CONSOLE OR PC GAMES
translated article: http://www.japantoday.com/smartphone/view/arts-culture/fans-mourn-segas-exit-from-the-console-video-game-market
WHY DID YOU LET THIS HAPPEN /v/???
Sega have been shit a while.
>>285082825
/v/ is full of Reddit and Nintendo cancer.
So, does this mean that chris-chan won?
>>285082825
literally nobody cares about sega anymore
they make shit games now, and rehash older ideas that were shit to begin with.
The only thing I would like from them is PSO2 western release, and that's about it.
>>285082825
nothing of value was lost
>>285082825
If they made good games and didn't keep porting the same games over and over, they would survive
How the fuck does it take 1.5 years to make Sonic 4 Episode 1 and another year to make Episode 2? Even then the games were still fucked
>mfw Sanic Boom killed Sonic
>mfw Sanic 4 sucked
>mfw Sonic ADV3 never ever
Fuck this earth
>>285082825
>no more PC games
Re-read the article nigga, one of the new focus areas is online PC shit.
Still a sad day
>>285082825
Good, maybe they'll sell off some of their fucking IPs that haven't been touched in over a decade in the transition to a mobile only company.
TOP
FUCKING
KEK
>>285083248
>mfw sanic adventure series were all garbage as well
This includes Atlus.
>>285083248
>mfw Sonic Boom was so shitty SEGA exited the real video game business
I don't even care, Sega has made like three decent games in the past decade.
>>285082825
>SEGA ANNOUNCES THEY ARE OFFICIALLY MAKING ONLY MOBILE GAMES FROM NOW ON, NO MORE CONSOLE OR PC GAMES
Chill, turbofaggot.
That's not what they said. They said they will focus more on PC and mobile (something they already do since a year or more). They are still open to make some console games.
>>285082825
>WHY DID YOU LET THIS HAPPEN /v/???
Not my fault Sonic Boom and Lost Worlds were bad.
>>285082825
welcome to 2 months ago
So Sanic is dead?
Thank the lord!
>>285083416
No. Atlus is owned by Sammy, it's a different part of the company.
>>285082920
a while? Like half a decade mate
>>285083416
Eh. After Persona 5/Break Record gets released I'll be fine with that.
Sega is like King Midas, except everything it touches turns to shit.
>>285082825
Sega wouldn't abandon DW and Total War you faggot
THEY ARE STILL MAKING SONIC CONSOLE GAMES YOU FAGGOTS
>>285083248
>mfw Sonic ADV3 never ever
It could be mobile
What about Yakuza?
>>285083447
>Sonic Boom
It was bad.
>Lost Worlds
It was ok.
>>285082825
Wasn't there just a thread about how Sega said they still planned on making Sonic console games?
>Sega turns mobile
>muh sonic
who gives a shit about sonic
what about total war
>No more Yakuza or Valkyria Chronicles (or even Shenmue 3)
Fuck you Sega and your shitty Sonic games.
>>285083438
they wouldn't if they knew what was good for them. Oh wait, they dont
wait, doesnt sega make total war?
>>285083842
>what about total war
Going free to play and mobile.

>>285083823
dead probably.
Unless they create some shitty mobile Yakuza card game or an F2P online PC game (for Japan only)
>>285082825
Hang on, does this apply to Atlus (owned by Sega Sammy) as well?

Lol gee wow.. I'm like.. really surprised heh.. ayyy well meme'd my friend
>>285082825
CRASHING THE INDUSTRY WITH NO SURVIVORS!
Rest In Peace you great little hedgehog. Your masters ruined your image.
>>285084157
...
da fuq?
Nope, they're still making pc games.
I'm not too upset, frankly the only thing sega has done in recent years that wasn't a complete mess of shit was sonic 4.
>>285083835
Yes, this is just another false-flag thread made by sonypony kids from gamefags. They do it all the time, since no one reads what actually happens.
>post yfw Yamauchi finally won
Well hopefully they die soon and start releasing those IPs so competent developers can buy them and we get the games our childhood deserves.Who am I kidding, if they started going bankrupt Nintendo would probably buy them outright, never use any of their IPs and keep making New Super Mario Bros games
>>285083364
Nice shit posting Nintentoddler
>>285084328
allstars racing transformed was awesome though. way better than MK8
>>285084338
>sonypony
It's always those sonnyggers shitting up the threads, amirite? :^)
>>285084445
>way better than MK8
That's not much of a comparison when mk8 is shit anon.
>no project diva on PS4
>no alien:isolation
>>285084690
>>285084445
Why did /v/ overrate MK8 so much? I played it over a friend's house and was not impressed.
>>285084310
*it was a hologram*
>>285084328
they published CoH 2 which I loved
they published Alien Isolation, which I loved
Binary Domain was pretty damn enjoyable, too
>>285084015
you're on /v/ no one likes games here
>>285082825
>Tri-Ace is now mobile only
>Sega is now mobile only
I wonder who's next?
>>285082825>yfw Nintendo buys Sonic
>>285082825
>SEGA abandoning consoles
They're still making PC games you mongoloid shit.
>>285084974
Hopefully Capcom.
>>285084974
Probably Square Enix after FFXV flops.
BAYONETTA ON PC GUYS
ITS HAPPENING
>>285082825
LOOKS LEGIT
>>285082825
Can we get a source for this that is actually straight from Sega, not some shitty opinion piece? I just checked the Sega-Sammy IR site and there's nothing about this.
>>285082825
>>285082825
"We" could try as hard as "we" could but the mobile market is so large that it is just more profitable
>>285085152

There is none. Even if you search "Sega" in Japanese, there's no news whatsoever. All there it takes is some opinion piece for all of /v/ to shit their pants.

>>285085123
>Sega ditching the console video game business to focus on what it considers the areas of biggest growth, mobile and online PC games.
>online pc games
Who's gonna make my miku games from now on? Where is my Skies of Arcadia enchanced edition for PS3/Vita/PC?
At this rate it wouldn't surprise me if the vast majority of devs/publishers are strictly mobile in a few years.
It's just a no brainer from a business standpoint. There's way too much easy profit in mobile gaming compared to console and PC gaming.
Soon consoles and PC will be nothing left but p2w mmo/moba shit.
>>285085541
they could make a coop bayonetta game
>>285084458
Yes, it is indeed. Mostly from gamefags.
>>285085713
They already did.
>"Mobile shit will never kill vidya games" - /v/ a few years ago
Fuck you guys, you deserve this turd. I warned you faggots, but you faggots ignored and said "hurr not your personnel army kid..."
Now check my 5
>>285085576
>There's way too much easy profit in mobile gaming compared to console and PC gaming.
This is a complete lie. It's a very volatile market where most developers will end up killing themselves, and those who are left will be forced to make mobage and other freemium shit.
>Takashi Iizuka says he has no plans to stop making Sonic games for consoles
L-LOL?
>>285084428
Are you autistic or just underaged?
>>285083248
>mfw Sonic ADV3 never ever
But it already exists.It's on the Game Boy Advance.
>>285084862
Oh that's right, alien isolation.
Damn sega, keep up the good work.
>>285085713
Not seeing it happen.
Most likely they could release a Yakuza online game or Hatsune Miku online (something like osu!). But knowing Sega, that won't happen either
what ips of value did they have apart from sanic, and don't say pso because that one can barelly stay alive in japan.
>>285082825
I ain't care
>>285082825
Can we finally get a F2P mobile Chao Garden game with a bunch of playable characters in it? Please?
>>285085858
>>"Mobile shit will never kill vidya games"
Said no one ever, least of all on /v/.
/v/ has been crying about mobile bullshit ruining everything and forcing the whole industry into a second crash for years now.
>>285085152
None, it's like those Bayoneta threads. Ponyshills and 10 years olds just spam it to shitpost.

Don't remember others at the moment
>nintendi buys Sega from Sammy
>also gets Atlus
>yfw sonyponies NEVER NEVER EVER get P5
Sega Sammy Holdings, the parent company that now controls one-time video gaming pioneer Sega, is looking to seriously overhaul its structure and business operations. Statements from the conglomerate have stressed that this is an ongoing process, but one of the first steps seems to be Sega ditching the console video game business to focus on what it considers the areas of biggest growth, mobile and online PC games.
PC games. They merely abandoned consoles and nobody gives a shit about that. Why are you such a dicknugget, OP?
>>285082825
>NO MORE CONSOLE OR PC GAMES
>one of the first steps seems to be Sega ditching the console video game business to focus on what it considers the areas of biggest growth, mobile and online PC games.
>and online PC games
fucking retard
>>285085858
TOUGH SHIT HERE'S MY 6
>>285085387
All this stuff is about the restructuring and foreign job cuts, not "SEGA ANNOUNCES THEY ARE OFFICIALLY MAKING ONLY MOBILE GAMES FROM NOW ON, NO MORE CONSOLE OR PC GAMES." What I want to know is why is this suddenly in the news when Sega hasn't said anything like that?
>People think mobile push is going to stop at Blizzard and Sega
>B-b-b-b-but it's just a bubble! Nintendo said so! It MUST be true!
I was really shocked, then I realized I don't have anything from Sega I'm still looking forward to
>>285084725
pretty sure sega only published A:I
>Rhythm Thief 2's chances decreasing even more
That hurts
Hope you guys look forward to Shenmue 3, exclusively on iOS, followed by the release of Yakuza 6 exclusively on Steam.
>>285086185
Yeah. Have fun playing all those japanese F2P online games.
I know that people can release english patches for them, but don't expect quality games.
>Sonic Boom was such a boom that it killed Sega
Jesus fuck, I wonder if Big Red Button will even be hired again after their first game killed a publisher
>>285086328
>Casuals move to handhelds only
>Consoles die
>"Hardcore gamers" go to PC
>Software developers switch to only PC games
I want it to happen so bad.
>>285085872
>This is a complete lie. It's a very volatile market where most developers will end up killing themselves, and those who are left will be forced to make mobage and other freemium shit.
This. Everybody looks at shit like Clash of Clans making money hand over fist and generating Porsche 918s out of thin air for everyone involved, but they fail to recognize that for every Supercell there's legions upon legions of tryhard retards who just end up thousands of dollars in the hole
>>285086412
>Yakuza 6 exclusively on Steam
You mean Yakuza Online F2P game (Japanese only)
>>285083568
thats still better than Square Enix
D-does this mean no more Guilty Gear?
>>285086885
>>285083698
They just made their last
It's called Sonic Boom
>mfw CWC was right
Any publisher that tries to jump on mobile always goes full retard and starts adding microtransactions out the ass and expects to suddenly make billions over night
It's the newest goldrush, thinking it will save a dying company is idiotic
I fucking hate you Apple
>>285087281
>and expects to suddenly make billions over night
They do though, the only thing more retarded than the console market is the mobile market. They'll eat up fucking ANYTHING.
>nintendo's final form
>>285082825
They werent doing anything good in the AAA industry anyway. Sonic has been shit for ages.
fug
>tfw no Rhythm Thief 2
FUCK YOU SEGA
Doesn't really matter, they were old anyway.
They will be back when mobile dies
>release nothing but liquid shit
>it underperforms
>move out of the sector
>Sonic has blue arms in his last console game.
truly the worst thing that has come from this
On the plus side, mobile Sonic games probably won't be so shitty now.
... It's just a damn shame that all modern mobile devices use fucking touchscreens. God, why couldn't they have just made Sonic Runners a 3DS eShop game or something?
It's over, /v/. Vidya is dead. I'm packing my bags and heading over to /tg/. See you there.
I've been wondering if this is why we haven't had much Project Diva news or announcements. If we don't hear anything in march, I'm getting the feeling the PD arcade is going to come to a close too... They seems to suggest they're exiting all arcade business that can't be converted to online games, so versus games like that mecha TPS (borderbreak?) and card style games might survive, but miku seems up a creek, not to mention all their console single player games. On top of that they're closing shop on western publishing, so those hoping online games means they'll finally get PSO2 are probably out of luck too.
>>285089152
> It's just a damn shame that all modern mobile devices use fucking touchscreens.
Ofcourse they do, part of the reason the 3DS hasn't sold as much as the DS is that somehow even after all the DS sold to older people. Systems with buttons are back to being stigmatised as childish.
Mobiles are gimped as game playing devices in order to be fashionable even though adults will bring them out to play games like candy cursh.
>>285089152
Vidya is fine and you havent even played 99% of the games worth playing Im sure
Why Sega doesnt use their IPs and characters more often? Look at Chaos garden. It is perfect for mobiles.
SEGA wasted too much time trying figure out what sonic needed to be in a 3D world. They still haven't figured it out.
SEGA just needs to sell off the Sonic IP to Nintendo for mad dosh and invest that money toward this new Mobile/PC market they want to pursue.
>>285089152
> heading over to /tg/
I would rather kill myself than use my imagination.
>>285082825
>NO MORE CONSOLE OR PC GAMES
unless they sell a lot of assets thats bullshit
they have a PC game that literally prints money
>>285090139
>Why Sega doesnt use their IPs and characters more often?
No one buys them
THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU HYPE UP SHITTY MOBILE SONIC GAMES. YOU AUTISTS.What happens to Yakuza?
>>285090332
Why not?
>>285090410
Because theyre infamously shit.
>>285090386
Dead like Shinobi
>>285083964
at least you can be honest with yourself
>>285090505
Holy fuck this 3DS game was a huge pile of shit
Reminder that Gearbox drained over 40 millions out of SEGA for the scam that was Colonial Marines.
They could have used that money for:
>New Jet Set Radio
>New Skies of Arcadia
>Multiplat Bayonetta 2
But no: That money went into Memelands 2 and its DLC.
>>285083248
I'm pretty sure Sega killed themselves. They seemed like they were desperate to get out of that contract with Nintendo so they released whatever shit as fast as possible. I think Boom was originally going to be a multiplat game but was shoved to the Wii U for the contract.
>>285082825
But... Total War is ded?
We'll never see Shenmue 3. ;_;
>>285082825
And nothing of value was lost!
>>285090791
>Multiplat Bayonetta 2
Never ever
>>285085541
>>285090882
>I think Boom was originally going to be a multiplat game but was shoved to the Wii U for the contract.
They could made so mad dosh if it was mutiplat.
Sega is retarded as hell.
>>285086373
Sega owns Creative Assembly who developed it.
>Pushing the fuck out of garbage sonic sequels
>Refusing to do anything worth a damn with your decent new IPs like Valkyria or giving A series like Yakuza more of a push.
They did it to themselves
>>285090791
>Reminder that Gearbox drained over 40 millions out of SEGA for the scam that was Colonial Marines.
Stop spreading this nonsense. You have no proof of this and are hurting good developers and people like Randy.
>>285082825
SCREENCAP THIS
NINTENDO WILL BUY ATLUS
P5 FOR THE WII U BABY
>>285090410
>Why not?
Not popular and they're mostly niche mpw. Not much point in using an IP in the mobile market if only a few hundred thousand will ever want to play it.
The mobile market is high volume, razor thin profit. Tying themselves down to those IP would be worse for them than just copying what's popular(endless runners, puzzle games,etc.)
I hope this doesn't affect Relic, since they are supposedly working on a Dawn of War 3 or Space Marine 2
Do people not realise that Sega owns one of the biggest PC cash cows?
Good riddance. Sonic is cancer.

>>285082825
Where is Sega's OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENTZ! stating they aren't making more PC and console games?
>>285091607
Do they honestly just don't get it
Jesus fucking christ just stop it
Stop it you fucking idiots
>>285091607
To be fair, Sonic's last console game being Sonic Boom would have been shitting into a grave.
>>285091607
And more shit probably as well.
The whole ''We quit'' shit basicly means they won't try anything risky anymore.
Sanic will stay.
Yakuza will stay.
PC will still get Total War, Football Manager and Relic games.
I hope Capcom is next.
>>285082825
Lol, not even PC?
Retarded as sin.
I feel bad for Relic.

But it clearly says pc games. Sega is only leaving the console market.
In the last years the bulk of profits (after pachinko) for Sega-Sammy were retail PC games. Not digital shit, no steam shit. RETAIL PC GAMES. As weird as it sounds. Its only logical this step. I hope this means pc releases of atlus titles.
>>285090898
Actually they could buy up the name if they are really abandoning consoles. If they start selling ips you could grab at it
>>285092296
Japan
sometime this year or any really
>>285084308
You either die a hero, or live long enough to become the villain.
The least they could do is sell off their fucking IP that they don't even use anymore. Yu Suzuki deserves to have the Shenmue after all the shit Sega put him through. Platinum should bet back MadWorld and Anarchy Reigns. Billy Hatcher should belong to Nintendo, and Comix Zone should also return to its original creator like how it happened with Toejam and Earl.
>>285091607
What's this? /v/ got BTFO yet again?
What a surprise.
>>285092669
>Billy Hatcher should belong to Nintendo
Why? Nintendo would just ignore him like Sega does. Billy isnt Mario or Pokemon.
>>285082825
what the hell has sega even released in the last 10 years that was any good?
>sonic generations
>vanquish
>sonic colours
Is that it? 10 years and only
>>285093014
Yakuza you cancerous tripwhore.
>>285083269
Why would they do this and not just make shitty mobile cash ins of unused IPs?
They can basically just do what Capcom does.
>>285092761
>this videogame dev decides how bussiness is done in the company that employs him to make videogames
He might be up to, he might want to, but the decision comes from the higher ups. He will end like that Megaman faggot, making an OC (Not) Megaman outside Sega.
>>285093014
Sanic Kart, Bayonetta 1
SEGA can die and Sonic Team would still not stop making Sonic games.
>>285093187
was sonic cart actually good? I ignored it because I figured it was just a shitty attempt to cash in on mario kart dosh.and because I actually did buy sony smash bros.
>>285082825
THE FUCK
I actually work as a beta tester ar SEGA and had a feeling this would come
what about Sonic though?
>>285082825
I never liked sonic, not even as a kid, the other sega titles were meh to me. So i don't really care beyond the respect i have for a company that made games other people enjoyed.
>>285086149
>Binary domain
Flopped
>Total War
They only produced one, they don't own it
>Valkyria Chronicles
They killed it themselves and made the series sold like shit
>Yakuza
Only Japan likes it and it's sales have been dwindling
>Hatsune Miku
Only thing consistently successful.
>>285086521
Why do people want this? I really don't understand even though I've seen it so many times.
I don't want to spend $2000 to play video games and don't know why so many people do. I know there are advantages to PC gaming but I don't think it's worth the astronomical cost, plus having to learn how to build one.
Why can't I just have my $250 Nintendo console? Why do you want me to have to spend several thousand dollars on a PC even though my console works fine at a price I can actually pay as a poorfag? Is killing off consoles going to make PCs cheaper somehow?
>>285091336
Dunno if shitty bait or an idiot, but this has got nothing to do with Atlus.
>test the waters for how PC players enjoy your games
>a couple months later decide you're not making real games anymore

>''Except we don't change a thing''
>>285093597
>I don't want to spend $2000 to play video games and don't know why so many people do.
A decent PC that can play everything costs 300-400 bucks. Everything above that is for people who need 4K + 200 FPS. Or its for those who want to play badly optimised Ubisoft PC ports.
>>285090898
You were never going to see a Shenmue 3.
Yakuza is the spiritual successor.
woah woah woah
so no alien isolation 2?
ugh what's the point of gaining like 300pp today if i only got it cuz i kept getting matched with people 500 lower than me
this shit really is meaningless huh
>>285093563
But I liked all of those games ;_;
Because they never released the goddamn games I wanted to play.
I would have paid full price for a console or PC Valkyria Chronicles 2 that wasn't scaled down for hand helds.
I would have paid full price for an enlgish Valkyria Chronicles 3.
>No more PC games
That's pretty untrue. They own Relic and Creative Assembly. Not even EA would stick them on Facebook duty. At least, not without milking their titties dry, first.
>>285093793
But I paid $400 for mine and it can barely play Source engine games with all the graphics turned at their lowest and the effects all turned off.
>>285084310
Fuck off newfag
>>285091382
They haven't been doing that since the days of THQ. Games Workshop refused to involve SEGA with their licensing and gave it out to a bunch of other people instead. They cannot make a DoW3, and the Space Marine sequel got turned into the 40k MMO.
If they can't manage to make successful and good games, why would going mobile change that? Seems like they're just delaying the inevitable.
>>285094125
What the fuck did you buy?
Or did you pay those 400 dollars in the year of 2007?
Never released shenmue 3 or a new jet set radio, so fuck sega. I was a huge sega fanboy back in the day, sonic was so much cooler than mario. After the genesis they went so far downhill it wasn't even funny. The DC did have a few gems but sega failed to really capitalize on them, so this is all really their own fault. They could only ride the sonic train so much.

Let's be honest here, Gearbox Killed SEGA.
This is long overdue, but it's sad to see it happen
>>285094623
>not only people here supported Anthony Burch but they also killed SEGA

SEGA's western studios like Creative Assembly are the only ones bringing in decent money, so they'll probably get to make whatever they want.
>>285083438
hopefully
why? because I really fucking LOVE Sonic Adventure 2.
Don't know about Sanic Boom or Sanic 06.
Either way, I just blame Chris-chan if they truly stop. He's so autistic that he'd disgust the guys at Sega so much they'd stop making Sanic.
>>285082825
WHY DID YOU LET THIS HAPPEN /v/???
Makes shit game after shit game, doesn't localize games that a lot of people wants to play, keeps on making more and more Sonic games, which sucks more with each new game.
Thats just SEGA being SEGA.
>>285094345
Well that's part of what I was saying, you need to learn how to actually build a PC to use it, and that's a field I know nothing about at all and would have to study a lot to figure out how to do it right, if I don't break the parts I try to build it with.
I respect the people that can do it, but it's not something I think I could do and it's why I wouldn't want PCs to be the only option to play games.
So... We are going to ignore the fact that Sega didn't officially announce any of that and just run with it?
>>285089152
>vidya is dead because a company that made games about a shitty platformer/gobba go fast is now moving onto mobile
the only people that care would be the autistic sonic fanbase
>>285082825
Why did I let it happen? I bought fucking Unleashed and Lost World. I was tired of eating shittier and shittier sandwiches and absolutely refused to buy Boom. THEY let this happen.
>>285082825

Maybe if they stopped making shit games, this wouldn't have fucking happened.

It's not hard dude. A girl can do it and it doesn't cost $2000. I built mine for $800-850 back in 2012. Now it's even cheaper by just getting a GTX 750ti for $150 to start.

I'm not even being a mustard fag, but I went from a 360 to a gaming PC 3 years ago and I don't regret it at all. Especially with Metal Gear Solid 5 coming to PC. The only other next gen console I own now is a Wii U.
>free online multiplayer
>1080p, 60fps
>1440p if you want
>whole buncha jap stuff coming like Metal Gear, Dragon Ball, etc.
SEGA literally going to spend all their time making Miku dress up mobile games, a f2p moba starring Sonic characters, while continuously whipping CA's back to keep the creation of Total War culture packs at a consistent pace, and to distract them from the immense guilt they feel over how wrong it was for them to ACTUALLY release the alpha for Rome 2 and then cut the game up into DLC packs.
Why can't the mobile bubble just burst already?
FUCKING NORMALFAGS FIND A NEW DUMB HOBBY ALREADY
STOP BUYING MOBILE CRAP AND RUINING VIDEO GAMES
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEe
>>285094207
That's an unfair generalization. I built my PC for $400 in 2007, and I still play games to this date above medium settings. Granted, I replaced my 9800GT with a 660 a year and a half ago during some special sale, but still.
>>285093793
In what world? Most good video cards cost around 200~300 dollars alone.
If they moved to pc, it would be the same console shit except less optimized because there are a million different pc specs they have to take in account
>>285094937

you don't have to study anything, it's really simple considering every socket is different and only goes into the socket it fits

>unfair
>i gave my GPU a huge upgrade
Especially a better GPU makes a huge difference when it comes to videogame performance.
>>285096492
A decent GForce from the 400-500 series should cost less than 200 and be able to play everything besides unoptimized next gen AAA garbage.
are you fucking retarded
the only source is yahoo or some shit but searching for Sega in japanese only results in articles that have nothing to do with that

Also forgot, here's a guide for parts.

That propaganda console-players like to spread about PC costing "$2000 to get into" is false. You can build a PC for roughly $500-600 that will be able to max out Ground Zeroes, maybe the Phantom Pain, and 90% of games with 60fps.
If you really don't wanna build one, at least take the crap machine you have now and slap a GTX 750ti in it for $150. Maybe even get an i3-i5 processor for $170-200 and boom. You only spent $350 to play games better than a PS4 or an Xbone.
>>285096546
SEGA said they won't do a Skies of Arcadia game again because they know they won't be able to do it justice.

Good riddance.
First Tri-Ace, now Sega, this is truly the slippery slope that leads to the end times.
You know what the fucking proble is? None of you faggots are breeding so kids now are being brought up into homes with parents that are tech savvy enough to get their kid smartphone garbage but with no interest or knowledge about PC or console gaming. So their kids are exposed to cheap trash all through their youth and that becomes the shit they consume regularly.
I know at least some of you fuckers are old enough by now to have a decent job and the beginnings of a family. Fucking breed you faggots or you're just as responsible for the death of Video Games as the rest of the world.
Mobile is seriously that profitable that a former console manufacturer is actually going to make games exclusively for mobile? How did this happen? Is this only going to be limited to Japanese companies? Why can't jap companies into gaming profits no more?
The future of gaming is looking bleak.

>Why can't jap companies into gaming profits no more?
games are expensive to make nowadays, and for some reason they all keep trying to compete in this arms race rather than taking a step back and living within reasonable budgets for their fairly niche games.
