when live service games get shut down a week after they come out because there aren't like one million concurrent players, i'm always like, dude when a game comes out it takes two months for me to hear about it and then maybe six for me to play it. and i'm IN the industry.

I find it extremely funny that after literally decades of people clowning on Zero Wing as 'unintentional comedy' (due to a wonky translation), it turns out the game was just packed to bursting with weird, fully intentional gags.
Lots of Zero Wing talk today, so I'll drop these here too!
● ZERO WING had 32 secret endings in Japan only!

● A QUICK LOOK at Zero Wing's intro text in Japanese & English

🧵 I'm starting a new series, called "fuck-you endings in arcade games". I define a "fuck-you ending" as an ending that (1) is a downer/bummer, and (2) is the "main" (non-secret) ending of the game (if applicable). New entries will be added to the thread as I find them [ CW: flashing lights ]

I could have the wrong person, but I believe it was Doug Bowser around the time of Mario Kart World who justified $80 games as a premium price for a premium game.
I cannot think of a single example of a game that was -so good- that the word of mouth was justifying the $70 price point
