Are you talking about the entire industry or just one aspect? You mean hardware or game development in general?

Everything.

If this happened, I would cause the end of the world.

Please spend as much time writing your question, as you want me to spend responding to it.  Take some time, and explain your issue, please!

I'd keep all my systems.

 

Atari 2600, NES, N64, Atari 7800, PS2, Sega Genesis, and Xbox 1.

 

Also PC ofc. I've collected a large game library for everything except the Genesis and N64. Genesis games in my area are oddly more expensive than most, and N64 game prices are inflated do to 90s kids who want to relive the glory days/didn't make much of themselves. Ok, a bit harsh, but 60 ****ing bucks for a mediocre Mario game? REALLY? **** you game store.

"Normandy" i7 4790K - GTX 970 - Phantom 410 (Gun metal) - Z97 Extreme4 (asrock) - 128GB Crucial SSD - 1TB WD HDD - H60 Refurb. - 7 case fans | G710+ Keyboard, G230 Headset, Acer GN246HL Monitor.

Quick thoughts on system: I7 is extremely quick and I'm glad I spent the extra for hyper-threading. I regret my decision to get the GTX 970, it has horrible coil whine. There isn't any excuse for this terrible whine I and others are having. I HIGHLY recommend a 144hz monitor. Future Improvements/upgrades: Rubber fan mounts, basic speakers, more ram (for a total of 16gb), replace GPU.

144hz is love. 144hz is life. I like to submit unfinished posts then do about 20 edits. I like the Night Theme too.

How is that a choice? PC then emulate wii. I'd honestly rather play wii on pc

 

 

  • Better post-processes.
  • Better resolution.
  • Free games.
  • Don't have to switch disks.
  • Choice of controllers (however I use the wiimote and nunchuck)
  • Higher framerate.

Need I go on? :P

Wishing leads to ambition and ambition leads to motivation and motivation leads to me building an illegal rocket ship in my backyard.

PC and consoles difficult to emulate, with spare parts to repair them just in case.

The stars died for you to be here today.

A locked bathroom in the right place can make all the difference in the world.

Well... I guess I would just keep my PC... I have nothing else than PCs and a Nintendo DS Lite (with only one game worth playing).

 

If money wasn't as issue, would have bought some old consoles all the way back from NES era.

 

 

I would go all apocalyptic on the world and put my 560ti's on either end of a DVI cable and use it like a 1.5 metre long nunchuck. Going Karawak on everybody's ass till they bring back the gaming

1,5 meters long... Good luck handling that. :lol:   (Seriously speaking: nunchucks weren't used as weapons, that would have been impractical. They were merely training items. Hasn't stopped other from dreaming, though...)

Never trust my advice. Only take any and all advice from me with a grain of salt. Just a heads up.

I'd probably take up drone flying and working out more and improve my fat ass

If gaming were to end, I'd simply play GTA for real.

You know how to live.
