Kind of an apples to oranges situation, since SM64 DS is a remake for a then new handheld vs a Virtual Boy VC to emulate an entire console library with barely over 20 or so games.

Still though, this made me realize that Pokemon Home is its own subscription separate from NSO. you’d think they’d at least include it with the expansion pass?
Surprisingly not too difficult, you don’t even need to own a PS3 to get the necessary files, Sony hosts the firmware files straight from their website and ripping discs is easy with a BD-R drive

Though less of an issue now with how optimized it is on RPCS3
Even though DeS 2020 and SotC 2018 are fumbles from an artistic standpoint, these games still ended up selling well and sony fumbled harder by forcing the studio that’s well known for remasting games make live service slop and dooming the company in the process.
They killed their golden goose.
I mean it’s a fine remake, but the new assets shoehorn a visual look that wasn’t in the original and doesn’t bring anything new to the table that compliments the original
19.02.2026 19:35 — 👍 3 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0The thing is that BP used to be famous for doing Enhanced Ports rather than full-on remakes.
SotC 2018 became the turning point.
It didn’t even have to be a remake, making the 60fps patch official and have the game running in 4k would’ve been enough to get people to double-dip

11.02.2026 22:00 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0I mean, the gameplay of Detroit Become Human is essentially “what if a VN had a western AAA Budget” so there’s that. The game ended up being the best selling Quantic Dream game over there, and it even got a spinoff manga set in Tokyo.
10.02.2026 19:31 — 👍 13 🔁 1 💬 2 📌 0Still think about how this game unironically became a cult classic in Japan since they never had a civil rights movement compared to the rest of the western world.
