When you are running a business you want to sell what's on demand. Nobody wants to spend effort on a product that people aren't going to buy. Nintendo is naturally going to prioritize making certain games over others. F-zero Fan boys think that because they want a new entry that Nintendo should stop what they are doing to make ir, without understanding that crafting video games can be a risky and costly endeavor.

@KingStr0ng 2 жыл бұрын

@@SteelTiamat It's not just "fan boys". Alot of people are asking for another game but they are choosing to ignore it because of outdated sales figures. F-Zero GBA came out in 2004. 2004 was a long time ago (almost 20 years ago). We have a whole different market now but they don't want to take the risk of gauging it. Playing it too safe can be bad for a business too.

Man literally spent enough to fund a brand new F-Zero game to shake the Magic 8 Ball, only for it to tell him "Try again later." Edit: Didn't want to have to write this, but it's painfully obvious that $40,000 isn't enough to make a brand new F-Zero game to completion. The number of people who keep chiming in "it doesn't cost $40k to make a game" is a bit obnoxious. YES it cost more to make a game, NO you don't have to keep saying it.
