Owning all major consoles has always been the way to go. Even going back to the 16-bit era, that was your best bet. But I will say this: the love-fest between industry leaders today is definitely more boring in general. Back in the day, when you had ads where Sega was doing what Nintendon't, Sony was clay-shooting N64 consoles and Crash was calling out Plumber Boy outside Nintendo of America's headquarters with a megaphone, everything was a lot more interesting and entertaining. |
That stuff is cringe. Guess times change. |
I don't know. Look at Kevin Butler. People loved that character, and that was well into the twenty-first century.
I don't think it's a result of times changing so much as it is the people in charge thinking it would benefit them to appear as if they're on one big, loving team. Sort of like, hey... if we do this, no one gets left behind and we all reap the rewards sort of thing.
