  1. The state of modern physical games is reflected in shop sales as well, If you'd like an idea of how many games are in stock at say for example... a local retro collectables and game shop, you'll find that Xbox 360 games take up most of the shelf space, followed by Xbox Original titles which are catching up at maybe two thirds the size of the 360 games, and then right at the bottom, with maybe a fifth or a sixth size of the Original Xbox game shelf space is Xbox One / Series S X games.

    It's the same for Playstation as well, PS2 has the largest shelf space, followed by PS1, then PS3, with PS4 trailing with a pile the size of maybe a sixth or seventh to that of the PS3 games, as the game just depreciate that quickly... oh and PS5 games are lumped in with the PS4 games at my local store, as there are only around five titles or less.

    Meanwhile... Switch games, there aren't many, because generally if they are titles which are popular, they just sell, and while it is a similar story with Switch games, they do seem to hold their value.

    Obviously Wii games take up the most shelf space, followed by DS and 3DS, with a few Wii U games here and there, GameCube games are making a comeback though, but they are getting tricker to source, especially certain titles, and as for other retro games? Well, this isn't retro discussion, and this may require a thread rip, but I thought at least the relevance of modern games not taking up much shelf space, and generally depreciating could be somewhat relevant.

  2. Luigi says - "Merry-a-Christmas you filthy animal... *Bang! Bang!* And-a Happy-a-New Year! *Bang!*" :santa:

    Yep... Luigi made out like a bandit with all the coins, not Wario for a change. ;)

    His Golf skills however, leave a lot to be desired, and while not streamed, some of the better (or worse) attempts may have been captured.

    Thanks for playing. :D

    Here's a link to this week's stream... :peace:

    Right, @Dcubed will be available tonight.

    @BowserBasher and @S.C.G. Mario Party 3 is go for tonight. What time will be best for you?

    EDIT: Dcubed has helpfully reminded me that Jet Force Gemini is now on the N64 app, so you'll need to update the app.

    Only just seen this... Up to @BowserBasher but if he isn't available, might be best to leave it? ::shrug:

    Half eight or nine for me, if we're all playing, see what Simon says... ;)

    If no word by half-eight, probably a no-go.

    Super Mario RPG is looking great, I might get to play it next year at this rate, the N64 news is welcome and Rare, more of their games should surely be shared. :peace:

    Castlevania Anniversary Collection for just £1.59? At that price, it'll do just fine. It's only that price until the third of December, so download it now, while you remember. ;)

    (and if you already have the collection, then that's just perfection, and I'm gonna insist, that you a raise a bro-fist) :peace:

    I heard that S.C.G. has one.

    Who's that? :blank:

    :p

    Anyway, I have one yeah. But I bought it to play at least twenty games or more on it.

    Is it worth buying a console to play one game? It depends on how much you really want to play the game. ::shrug:

    (Call of Duty Modern Warfare III code is still available for anyone interested, I only want to make back what I got it for, it'll be cheaper than on the PS store, that's for sure) ;)
