You must be young.Why do Consoles get obsolete ? Because the SNES had cartridges ?

People LOVE retro gaming once they get older because it reminds them of the good old times. My friends often rather play SNES Football than the newest Fifa. You are severly underestimating that retro appeal. People just like to play old systems on old CRT TVS. Why do SNES games cost that much nowadays ? Because they are in high demand.

Whats with the kids that grow up with the Xbox one as their primary consoles and want to replay some of the old classics in 40 years ? I am glad this stuff didnt exist in the 90s or else I could now throw away my old Systems.

 

And hoping that MS releases a DRM FREE patch after 20 years is a little optimistic. Because it looks like the game developers know that they can make money through their old classics. I can imagine they will find ways to tie your games to a payed Gold Service in the long run.

1. It says so in my post...SNES Is Obsolote becuase of it's cartridge format..

2.Retro is fine it's just not relevant at retail where video game console manufactures do buisness.

3.just like Carl yourr streching the Retro gaming thing...

4.If there is no successor to the  XBONE the Xbone got Dreamcasted..


You say the SNES is obsolete because it requires cartridges.

 

1. Obviously its obsolete for new games. But not just because of the medium the games are stored. But that doesnt mean its obsolete for  use.

2. Yes its not relevant for video game console manufacturers anymore.

3. Who are you to make that call. Why do you think that I am stretching it with the retro game thing ?

4. ???????????????????????

 

I seriously dont get your point

Carl said " When Microsoft eventually drop the Xbox One servers, which they will, is the Xbox One just going to literally be a TV box?"

 

And your answer is that SNES is obsolete ?  And that he is stretching the retro thing too much ?

 

That doesnt make any sense. Why is this not a valid concern ?
