Problem is some people dont understand 2nd stick mapped to face buttons is not analog it makes games near impossible to play

I mean it's just bad business on top of everything else. If you have a niche product, you need to market to that audience. I've never even seen RetroBit, 8BitDO or anyone else making controllers around here. They might post a topic advertising their latest release, but they never communicate to see what that audience actually works. It makes no sense from a business perspective, let alone a fanbase perspective. Irony is, the first company to build a readily accessible, genuine Dual Stick DC controller (not button mapping) would make an absolute mint out of this community!
Quake III dual stick? Potentially hacked official games? Legit dual stick indie titles (Would love a Geometry Wars style game)? And your product is the sole way to play? Sold. Immediately. Day damn one.Well said we the dreamcast people are going to buy it not little jonny that buys a dreamcast looking at a review from john handcock up or sega pretendo lord
Ho dayum! I know John Hancock was called out for promoting some crap hardware for a payday, but what did Sega Lord X do to earn your ire?Problem is some people dont understand 2nd stick mapped to face buttons is not analog it makes games near impossible to play
Analog controls like this don't allow for diagonal motions very well. It's not a major improvement.
In fact I wish my second thumbstick was mapped to the D-Pad instead of the face buttons in all honesty. Would be SO much better in PSO to, on the pause screen, run with my character with the left stick while going through my menu with my right. Pressing down to shoot is frankly worthless.

Now we've had 3 videos in a row, showing the Saturn at its worst, how about a brand new Saturn at its best, with games not previously covered?!?

@Scott Oleson I agree, its a good port of an 80s arcade game, not sure what he was expecting from it or why he is so harsh on it.

When you say something wasn't released outside of Japan and imply that means it's rubbish, that's a ridiculous claim. Most anime, manga, eroge etc are not released internationally, because certain Japanese companies don't want to face backlash from countries like the USA etc, heck even some Japanese websites are blocked from non Japanese ISP.
It only means it's a rubbish product if it wasn't released internationally, if the Japanese company itself was trying to actually release it internationally.
Just because something doesn't make it's way into the USA, doesn't mean it's rubbish, you are using a very weird benchmark to define what is and isn't rubbish, I guess the most upper class Japanese restaurants are rubbish according to your definition, since they didn't open up a second restaurant in the USA, lol.
BTW the USA's games and such don't even sell well inside Japan, and many US games don't make it to Japan. Does that mean US games are rubbish? Oh, you only think it works one way right?

Yeah, you are implying a lot of meanings that I never argued. I simply stated when a WESTERN created title is released ONLY in Japan for a game system, it usually means the quality was so poor nobody else wanted to bother.

The recent spate of Sega Sucks videos has put me off as of late. I guess cos he's American it makes sense for him to rip on Sega for views. I do prefer more positive videos myself. It's not as if he's a comedian who makes bad games funnier, so it just comes across as a moan lol
