The early platforms tend to get some use, if only because of publisher contracts dictating that I develop for them. The TES64 is the first real ‘don’t bother’ console that comes out when most players are at the 100k fan mark. It is completely upstaged by the Playsystem1. Even for its lone boosted genre (action) the PS1 provides the same boost with better market share. The Gamesphere is likewise ignored except for the novelty factor.
After that, I’ve never developed for the PS3 or the PS4. They tend to be upstaged by the Mbox series of the same type.
On the handheld front, the GS is be all and end all of my handheld gaming needs. I NEVER bother with PPS, the Gphone, the Gpad, or the Mpad. IF I’m going to do late-game medium titles, it is going to be on the GS. The sustained market share and the huge flexibility of that platform makes me wish it supported large or AAA games.
I USED to have the Nuu and the Wuu on this list, but one of my recent play-throughs found a really strong use for the Simulation-Casual multi-genre combo… one that gets platform bonuses from them but not from any of the other major Large-capable platforms besides the PC.
I wont list what I am not using but what I am using Longer list otherwise. As far as I have gotten in the game I have used only the PC PS and PS2 G64 and the gameboy forgot its name in the game…
I tend to ignore the entirety of Ninvento and Vena. I start with G64, make 2 or 3 games on it, then jump ship to PC. Ride the PC to the PS1 era, make a couple for PS1, then jump back to PC. After that, it’s PC the whole way, until I make customs.
I deleted the save with my first all-1s game. Reviewers still have nightmares about Cowboy Adventures, the outside-published PS1 Wild West-Adventure game
I used consoles that was sucesfull in real world and with cheaper license. Only if I just want to make game on different console, I bought it anyway. At later time, I just make everything on my own consoles
MMO smash hit WoW - lost lots of profits when I was tired to make expac after expac
I generally don’t touch Ninvento or Vena stuff, Although on my second playthrough I tested the waters with Ninvento, made two games and they both were massive losses, switched to Vena and have been making profits, even got my first No.1 game on this playthrough with the Vena Oasis,
Once the Vena company tanks, I’ll probably switch to Vonny, I’m going to stick with Vonny and PC and boycott the Mbox and Wuus, and see where it takes me
Still am an Xbox kid, although I threatened to switch allegiances to Sony when the Xbox One came out (who would’'t?) Their removal of all the DRM features has dragged Xbox back from the dead for me, though
