  When I was a kid, I got a Japanese N64 imported to the US. I tried to put a US cartridge in but it didn’t fit. My friend and I cut out the plastic inside where the cartridges go that was physically blocking and it worked.

  Companies sold some kind of extension to get around this but we didn’t want to wait.

  They should release consoles when there’s a significant leap in hardware that devs are waiting to take advantage of. The last few console releases have been boring. Don’t get me started on not only the lack of games but the lack of new types of games. Too many remakes and remasters demanding high prices.

  This is how I feel as well. A new PC or even a new console was a gigantic leap forward in both visuals and gameplay. We’ve had a couple decades of diminishing returns.

  I think the next big leap will be something along the lines of AI building out the stories, missions and dialogs “on the fly” creating incredible amounts of immersion where no two playthroughs have to be the same.

  Link to the Past Super Mario Bros 3 GTA 4

  I took into account the impact at the time of release as well as the timelessness of the games.
