Yeah, you're right. I'm wrong. When people think NES, the next thing they thing is Pac-Man

I don't think anyone is saying that, just that ports have been around for a long time is all. 

I never said they weren't. I said that back in the day when I was young, ports weren't focused on. They took a back seat. People didn't focus on them. None of my friends and I sat around, waiting for our Nintendo Power issues in the mail and hoping that they were going to announce that a port of Donkey Kong was coming out. We weren't calling out for them... and we just didn't care.

That's what I'm saying. Back then, they were an after thought. Now? They're front row and center. Hell, Nintendo dedicates entire fucking Directs to them. Entire threads are made daily with tons of people clamoring, begging for Wii U games to be ported. 

The number one selling game of the eighth gen is going to end up being a seventh gen game. I don't think I need to say more.
