Is it just me or are there fewer games being made every generation? Does newer hardware require more expensive projects? Why isn't the PS4 getting the same amount of releases as the PS2, given their comparable popularity?

what's wrong with this idol's face?

Miki > Iori

Don't you mean Piece of shit > Huge shit

Broken jaw.

It's because people demand HD photo realistic AAAA games and it's ruining the entire game industry.

Reminder that almost none of the games revealed alongside the PS4 and the XB1 have actually been released yet.

it's just you and the other retarded console peasants

the FUCK is wrong with her legs

seriously, fucking try doing that, what kind of bone-free legs does this girl have?

>Is it just me or are there fewer "good" games being made every generation?
Fixed it for you.

Wut. More games are being made now than ever before, it's the exact opposite problem. Wading through the shit to get to the good stuff is the hard part. Why would you think there are less?

Best idol

>fewer games being made evey generation
t. user who never heard of steam

It's not on my dick.

Prostitute worse than Rin

I want Miki to be my sex slave

Why are blondes always so best?

Nao is Perfect!

If you pay her enough she'll do anything to you

Shrinking userbase. Even the lowest graphics console out there, the 3DS, has fewer games than Vita for example.

That's exactly what someone with a cold forehead would say... heh

this

Every company wants to make millions of dollars in profits so they make their games big budget blockbusters that casuals want, even though it is easier than ever to create a cheap (and good) game that could make modest profits.

nozomi a best

...

She had a stroke and can't properly control her left eye.

You're factually right. Less games are being made that aren't indie shovelware.

Development times are pretty long these days.

>no source
>only consoles
k whatever

I want Miki to lick my hemorrhoids.

I want her to try my home grown vegetables.

Genyo Takeda was right.

How would you convince her to do that?

Something cause mid-level devs/publishers to die off so now all that's left are big AAA companies who pour most of their resources into bland, big name games in order to maximize profits that take forever to come out or tiny indie devs. Consoles got hit hard by this because they're sold almost exclusively on those big AAA games.

Looks like some Neofag made the graphs from a variety of sources:

I didn't think that far. If she refuses I can always just give Yayoi a 20 to do it instead.

Makoto seems like the kind of girl who'd agree to lick your ass if she loved you enough

That blonde girl is pretty cute. Post more of her.

She's fucking gorgeous

Being fit will do that.

Games are more expensive to make and take longer as well. Gaming is a hit driven industry like movies are, it's only just now we're seeing the rise of indie games, but making an indie game still takes more time and manpower than an indie movie. Last gen the average development cycle lasted about 2-3 years, this has now shifted to 3-4 years. Contrast that to the NES/SNES era when a game and its sequel could be releasing in the same year.

These. As technology continues to develop, games become harder and harder to make, as people now have a desire for more things in their video games, such as better graphics.
This is why "retro" indie games have become so common in recent years, they're easier to make, and they feed off of nostalgia bucks.
Takane best idol

Do you think blonde girls are more inclined to date other blonde people?
Or do they not care?

There are, way less. The big dogs took over the market and the only games to turn a profit are massive blockbusters or tiny indies

>blonde

she ain't natural, she's a FAKE
FAAAAAKE

She's like a shitty Mio.

Who is already shitty

...

Thumbnail makes her look like an amputee.

Old or virgin but teenage girls are flexible.
Oh and anime isn't real.

OH FUCK
WHAT DID YOU DOOOOOOOOO

765 > 346

It looks she was made better

But that's wrong

so that's where this is from

She's a cute cat

this is Miki?

What the hell...

That's Miku of the CG cast

It's not Miki

Where is the best place to buy Platinum Stars?

Even better it's miku

...

It's more expensive to make games. The entire mid level developing scene died with THQ. Only people left in that space are niche devs.

Things are starting to recover in that area but they're a long way from PS2 era.

>it's not a safe day

Good job derailing your thread with pic OP

Go away Miku

...

>implying this isn't exactly what he wanted

games keep getting more expensive to make, doubly so if you are going for bleeding edge top of the line.

So less companies have the money to compete with large mega corporations. And even those can find it rough. if they have a series of bombs, they can go in the red.

So they play things extremely safe so as to do well.

the market has become too expensive for innovation and risk taking. In the Atari and NES days, games were relatively cheap to make, and tons of noname developers made games for noname publishers. You could take risks.

Mega Man 2 was literally made for free, as a side project by the MM1 team at Capcom after the first game didnt do as well as Capcom had hoped.

You cant do that shit nowadays.

its also become more skill intensive. You can't just open MS paint and make pizel art, because what's in vogue right now is high end 3D graphics, so you need to be a fucking Pixar tier artist to work on visuals. In addition to needing to know the ins and outs of programming far more, since Videogames are far more complex than they used to be. its not just programming the Character to jump when Button A is pressed, and die when he hits a pit. You have to program the character, his subtle facial twitches, the lighting, the environment, the shit In the environment, etc etc etc in addition to the core mechanics of the game. And again, all that costs money, making it prohibitive to really design a game that stands up to the currently expected standard.

Thankfully, the indie scene is where a lot of otherwise devs go to do smaller non AAA projects. Shovel Knight, for instance, or Strafe, or Axiom Verge. The kinds of games that big name companies have no interest in anymore. Symphony of the Night is a masterpiece, but it couldnt be made today. Because 2D Sprites are so 1997

I bought from AmiAmi but I doubt that's the best place, though they did have a better price for the platinum box than PlayAsia who upcharged like 20-30 dollars before shipping. Not sure what other sites there are for importing games, really.

I'd D-rail Miki if you catch my drift.

oh great, here comes the autistic idolpucci

But she's cute

You don't like puchis?

I dont understand. She's not a train

This is a video game that is coming out in two weeks.

As others stated, it's pretty obvious what OP's intent was from the start.

She can be the locomotive of my train if you see what I mean.

You want to rape trains?

I'd fuck Miki hard if you comprehend the concept.

ramen hair

Poser or cat?

No, user. You run the train on Miki.

Yes

It's a shame, I like idols and all but the original topic was quite interesting

Poser because she has good taste in food

Afuu > Miki

>This whole thread
>this much autism in one small place

Not sure how there hasn't been a catastrophic implosion yet. Cartoonfags are the worst. Pic related, what everybody else thinks of you

It sure is a good thing that you browse an anime imageboard even though you hate anime

>being this delusional
Sup Forums hasn't been an anime board in years. You limp wristed faggots got booted out of your own home by mentally sane people long ago. Sure, the boards description still describes it has anime-related, but that's in name only. The reality has changed.

>giving a shit what everybody else thinks

Reminder that you are on Sup Forums. The internet hate machine from the darkest corners of the internet.

shut up faggot

well of course you'd do it hard. can't penetrate with a flaccid penis dummy

This isnt 2007

>redditcuck thinking hes capable of telling anyone off

>2007 was 9 years ago

Even though I'm not from Reddit, you still proved me correct by pointing out the influx of new normal people from other websites over recent years. Cartoonfags are in the vast minority now and should stay one their containment board Sup Forums.
