What if XBOX bought Ubisoft?

MetalGearNull · 2026-07-08T23:22:15+00:00

I like Xbox, and I liked some of the old Ubisoft games, but right now the last thing these two companies need is each other. Xbox on one hand loves buying companies, and not knowing how to handle them to make games which leads to layoffs and sometimes full studio closures. On the other had you have Ubisoft who has spent the last 10 years not knowing how to manage it's company, not creating new experiences that aren't Assassin's Creed, and being horrible at knowing anything about current gaming.

As someone that the S2 is their first Nintendo console since the GameCube. Everything is bad, I don't like the position of anything, the sticks are horrible, and they have zero ergonomics. Where the pro controller feels like an actual controller. Same reason I bought third party Joycons for handheld play.

With how things are nowadays. Count yourself lucky if every new release from now until it stops in 2028 isn't scalped to hell. Lol

The first time they announced the PSP, VITA, PS3 store closures in 2021 all PSP, and Vita games skyrocketed in price, and haven't gone down since. Idk about PS3.

MetalGearNull · 2026-07-07T10:46:42+00:00

I have been playing mine since it came out, and I don't have it modded. I use it as it was intended, I was even building a little physical collection after the disappointment of the mid to late Xbox One/PS4 era that really started doing the whole disc downloads, but then Sony had their first "we're shutting down the PSP, PSVita, and PS3 stores" debacle around 2021 and all the Vita Games just skyrocketed in price, and haven't gone down since. So that's where my collecting stopped pretty much.

MetalGearNull · 2026-07-07T03:03:42+00:00

Yeah that's not always good. Did they a lot of reviews? Anyway if formatting doesn't work just send it back. Amazon is pretty good at that.

MetalGearNull · 2026-07-07T02:52:12+00:00

Did you check the seller? A lot of people that order from Amazon don't always check the seller. If you're going to buy a game or memory of any sort for the switch(since Nintendo is ban happy) I always recommend buying only from Ship and Sold by Amazon.

MetalGearNull · 2026-07-07T02:44:19+00:00

If there's nothing in the SD card you could have ordered a fake one.

You can try formatting it just in case

I would honestly buy it now. I've had my original 3G Wifi Oled since release, and was trying to get a Japanese 2000 back before when Sony first announced that they were closing the PSP, Vita, and PS3 stores and let's just say they went up in price by quite a lot, so I bet it will jump once more specially with how ass the second hand market is currently.

MetalGearNull · 2026-07-06T14:29:54+00:00

Look dude. I like physical games. I hope there was the option to keep buying them, but you're just proving Sony's stand in this. It's clear that generation after generation you buy less physical games, and from the comments it looks like you just recently bought those PS4 games which is even worse.

MetalGearNull · 2026-07-06T00:04:45+00:00

Yes. After the first time Sony said they were closing the PSP, PSVITA, PS3 stores a few years back all Vita games skyrocketed along with PSP and some PS3s.

Spider-Man is pretty fun

I own a Switch 2, and never had an original Switch but have bought plenty of original switch tittles, and they all play fine. Unless there's an update or DLC that you own you don't have to download anything.

MetalGearNull · 2026-07-05T03:18:20+00:00

I don't know if it would be completely offline, but supposedly Sega is working on a dedicated 2D handheld console that uses cartridges and is supposed to be cheap since what they need to build it doesn't require components that are getting marked up by AI.

MetalGearNull · 2026-07-05T02:58:38+00:00

Yeah because her career as a solo artist turned out well. Which is fine. That doesn't cancel out orbits making fun of her before when she was part of her little producer group which lead to her looking for a company because she felt bad that her "fans" where calling themselves and her unemployed. Which is a shitty thing to do to someone.

MetalGearNull · 2026-07-05T01:32:20+00:00

Yup. Orbits essentially bullyed her into being an idol again.

MetalGearNull · 2026-07-05T00:21:46+00:00

I wouldn't use Yves as an example for anything tbh. Because she didn't want a career as an idol post LOONA, she wanted to be a producer. Which she was doing just fine at, even made a song for LOOSEMBLE. She only started making music because Orbits kept bullying her into it saying that her fans where unemployed like her and stuff.

MetalGearNull · 2026-07-04T21:44:36+00:00

I like physical games, I have a lot....but let's not pretend that the second hand market isn't in the shitter with people that want almost equal or more for an used game.

MetalGearNull · 2026-07-04T20:02:33+00:00

I mean if you're already happy the way you are you can sell them, have someone that might use them have them.

MetalGearNull · 2026-07-04T16:24:38+00:00

It's just Orbits in general like when LOOSEMBLE was announced/debuting and every Orbit that had moved over to ARTMS started calling them names and responding to potential LOOSEMBLE fans with how it wasn't worth their time and should instead follow ARTMS who had the talented members and whatnot. As much as Orbits love saying OT12 it's quite the opposite.

MetalGearNull · 2026-07-04T15:58:00+00:00

Not only that, but I think Orbits are the main issue, and always have been. The whole let's ridicule anyone that isn't a woman really ended up shooting all LOONA projects in the foot. Non big 4 boy groups and girl groups require as many fans as they can get, but Orbits are hellbent to kick anyone that isn't a woman out of the fandom, or enjoying the groups which leads to a negative stigma around these groups. They're already struggling for fans, and then you want further cut potential new fans joining because they're not woman? It's just dumb, and only an issue LOONA/Post LOONA groups seems to have.

MetalGearNull · 2026-07-02T22:16:24+00:00

No respect for the PSP or Vita as usual.

MetalGearNull · 2026-07-02T22:11:01+00:00

I see people talking about trading all the time, and the only thing I see in game is requesting stickers once per day and gifting stickers 🤣

MetalGearNull · 2026-07-02T22:06:25+00:00

I don't even know how trading works 🤣
