    Discussion Nintendo employee leaks unannounced Nintendo stuff on his imdb

    I went to double check it and yes, you can add or modify info like in Wikipedia. So you can go there and say Miyamoto is working in Knack 3

    Discussion Nintendo employee leaks unannounced Nintendo stuff on his imdb

    How does IMDB works? Is that data added by fans or is supposed Nintendo to be the ones who update it? I don''t see Miyamoto updating his CV there.

    Discussion PlayStation poor acquisition targets & seemingly directionless as a platform/storefront holder

    San Diego Studio was a rebranding of Red Zone Interactive, acquired by SIE (back then SCE) and merged with 989 Sports in 2001. Rumors also say Michael Jackson was an alien from another planet. Well, you can say it's safer for them to sit and see 3rd parties give them their 30%. But you can...

    Discussion now that Xbox is no longer a competitor, Sony can work way more flexibly

    I think Sony doesn't have to rush the next generation. Instead, they have to double down in the current one due to several reasons: To rush next gen would mean to delay some 1st party games, so it would be better to avoid it and continue as planned To continue having the largest current gen...

    Discussion PlayStation poor acquisition targets & seemingly directionless as a platform/storefront holder

    San Diego Studio, Guerrilla, Naughty Dog, Media Molecule, Sucker Punch, Insomniac... Sony made many great acquisitions during the 2000s and 2010s. Sony was always the publisher of Destiny 1 and Destiny 2 in Japan. They had the marketing deal for both games, with and without Activision. Bungie...

    Discussion PlayStation poor acquisition targets & seemingly directionless as a platform/storefront holder

    In recent times SIE is performing better than ever (or almost) in all their areas, and growing in all of them in existing or new markets, with all -or most- of their KPIs at all time record levels and in a growing trend. So no, they don't have any need of making a huge acquisition. Specially...

    Rumor Kingdom Hearts 4 Reportedly Launching In 2025

    KH4 won't release next year, read what I posted above: big AAA games being released now took 5-9 years to be developed, and Square Enix aren't in the fastest devs range. Releasing it next year would mean 4 years of development, which doesn't sound realistic at all. Regarding DQ12, I don't...

    Rumor Kingdom Hearts 4 Reportedly Launching In 2025

    It won't launch next year. As of late 2020 they still weren't working on this game, and early 2022 they announced that it was under development. Meaning, its development very likely started in 2021. Nowadays AAA games take around 5-9 years of development. Meaning, in the most optimistic case...

    Rumor Report: Stellar Blade already sold 1 million copies in the first 24 hours

    It was top 1 with preorders in all the Amazon and PSN stores main countries that I did check. And it should be top 1 in top seller in all these countries. So I assume it is pretty likely that it sold over a million during launch day. Or it not, over the weekend. Pretty likely will sell more...

    Square Enix did say they plan to turn some studios into subsidiary companies to allow external investors get part of them / invest (or who knows if to acquire) only specific parts of the company.

    Discussion PlayStation poor acquisition targets & seemingly directionless as a platform/storefront holder

    The Chinese were the one with the biggest amount of money and the ones who could offer the the biggest benefits outside the money. Regarding all these companies, maybe none of them waanted to sell to Sony and this is why they didn't do it. Sony can't buy them if they don't want to sell.
