Wait, really? That's interesting to me because since it's so dang autogenerated sounded that I literally can't remember it. Every time I come back to this thread I'm delighted anew, otherwise I just vaguely remember a bad title happened.is it a memorable brain worm? yes
I think if you pick a random death metal album, most every song title will be a better video game title than actual video game titles.
Good titles are still out there!
Nothing will ever beat this one, however.No One Can Stop Mr. Domino

No. There is no book, story, movie, tv show, play, song, album or game that has ever had a good title. A title is simply an ape throwing mouth sounds into the abyss and hoping what comes back at least somewhat accurately describes their desperate cry for attention from all the other apes.I think if you pick a random death metal album, most every song title will be a better video game title than actual video game titles.

Ah, thanks! So that's two, then... cool!Here's all of the lords shown at the intro (one per game save New Mystery):

Can somebody walk me through this arrangement between Microsoft and Nintendo regarding Goldeneye? Why is the Switch getting console-exclusive online multiplayer? Why is the Switch getting the game at all? The way I remember things, Nintendo sold Rare to Microsoft twenty years ago. They shouldn't have the leverage to expect exclusive anything from their port of Goldeneye, yet they seem to be the ones holding all the cards in this deal.
Exhibit A: The Skyward SwordHere? Yes. Hyrule? No.
Interesting, if a little confusing. Was there a point in the lifespan of the N64 when Rare was an independent agent? I figured they were a division of Nintendo, then a division of Microsoft, with no period of independence between the two acquisitions.Basic rule of thumb with games is 100% of the rights belong to the publisher, how a developer is paid/what rights they have is sort of a case by case thing but usually they get paid for their work, turn a game over, and done.
Perfect Dark and Conker's Bad Fur Day were published by rare themselves. When Microsoft bought them, those rights were included. The bulk of their output prior to that, Goldeneye included, was published by Nintendo, who never gave those rights away. Granted in the case of Goldeneye it's also based on a film and that industry tends to be a bit less absurd about IP rights so presumably they have to sign off on any rereleases, but Goldeneye, the video game for the N64, is property of Nintendo, last I checked.
Because the Nintendo version is emulated and NSO supports online multiplayer for N64 emulation, while the Microsoft version is a bespoke remaster that they didn't bother adding multiplayer to because reasons
They've always been their own company (well pre-MS buyout). The term I recall people bandying about was that they were a "second party developer" which... honestly seems both etymologically non-sensical and pretty damn vague, but in practice, technically fully independent but in good enough with Nintendo to constantly be trusted with big brand stuff (like, again, the various Donkey Kong games.Interesting, if a little confusing.
