In an interview with Nintendo, Famitsu asked how SNES Classic games were decided and why Super FX games were never released on Virtual Console even though it’s now on SNES Classic. The contents of the interview have been translated from Japanese.
The talented music maker discusses her process, challenges and, of course, magic!
Sony owns a fair few iconic franchises - many dating right back to the original PlayStation. But while we’re pretty familiar with the likes of ongoing series such as God of War, Horizon, and Gran Turismo, there are plenty of PlayStation franchises that haven’t seen the light of day in a long time. So in this video, we’re going to be taking a look at the status of PlayStation’s many IPs, and checking in on when we last heard from them.
Indeed. We hear this “underutilized” talk as if every old franchise should have a comeback or reboot.
When new IPs start looking like Concord, you can't blame people for wanting another Resistance or Killzone instead.
J&D and Resistance are good ones. As much as I love these, though, I'm not sure they would payoff without an enormous marketing push. Younger gamers today do not have taste and the older gamers that would appreciate these might not be enough. But yeah, I would day 1 Resistance.
Well that’s just the consequence of consistently producing new IPs isn’t it. Not all studios can be or want to be like polyphony digital who made gran turismo all the time.
Here lies The Infamous Series; once a shining beacon of free flying, lighting bolt sniping, and wire riding amazing gameplay, it has been laid to rest and be forgotten for what seems like forever despite being loved by millions. Plot next to Wipeout across from NBA Jam.
Still baffling they cancelled Twisted Metal, Factions 2 and Spider-Man Multiverse LS game but thought Concord looked good enough.
Ape Escape, Parappa / Lammy, Gravity Rush, good times. Always hoping for them to make a return, or at least similar type games, such as the newly-announced Astro Bot, but one game isn't enough. Bring back the joyfulness of the 90's era of gaming.

"It’s difficult to bring Super FX Chip titles to Virtual Console, hence we have never distributed them via the Virtual Console service up till today."
Emulators have gotten the Super FX pretty down now for over a decade, and Nintendo says they JUST figured out how to do it? I don't believe it.
no super fx games? this is a joke, right? i stopped supporting nintendo years ago, but still, this is a joke, right?
I would not worry about that since there will most likely be many people that will miss out on getting a mini SNES due to scalping. You only have to take a look at eBay and the console is already being sold at ridiculous prices even though eBay's policy is for people to advertise an item up to one month before it comes out. The mini SNES is about three months from release.
Personally, I would like to be proven wrong but if the mini NES is anything to go by I don't think I am especially when you consider that the mini SNES would be a more "attractive" item.

Even the wii could've emulated the SFX chip, it must've been a licensing issue. Nintendo, as usual, spewing bs. Penny pinchers, racist buggers.
