Spurge = OP

I think the fact that I can no longer keep up with Internet lingo is starting to depress me a little. ._.

EDIT: Finaaaaally clicked. Don't mind me. Six in the morning. My brain is frazzled.

I guess one thing we can all learn from this (again) is the future is never 100% certain.

No more will we see you atop the global charts. Never again.

I do not see any reason why it would be able to.

You know, this reminds me of when some people predicted the PSP was going to destroy the DS. Claims were laced with bitter insults and everything.

...

You know, if there's one thing I hate, it's that sort of arrogant behavior. Glad they were proven wrong and I gotta say:

It was good while it lasted.

Hindsight is one hell of a thing. Lol.

It's 20/20

Still funny that so many people expected a console with almost no quality Japanese launch games (beyond the mediocre Knack) to be successful.

Why do you think it's funny? Wasn't Knack some sort of Mario killer? I was scared at the time, please understand.

True. Now things will get much better with Persona 5 and all the crazy Dinasty Warriors clones and JRPGs, but till now there was not much of a reason to own a PS4 in Japan.

Yeah, the PS4 looks much more appealing now. Ys, Persona, and Dragon Quest alone will move tens of thousands of units.

Teeqoz said:

But the people here are talking about topping the global charts, and they were right, the PS4 has dominated them (after the updates).

Yeah, no. After skimming through the first few pages, people were expecting the 3DS to roll over and die in Japan while the PS4 took the cake.

Then those users didn't read the OP properly.

SRY for late reply, but you aren't notified when your quote is just copy/pasted in :-/
