Ghost Squad – The joy of reptition

"You might think it is a very specific kind of madness that I bought a Wii U in the winter of 2017, but it was with good reason. While many people are off gallivanting with their Nintendo Switches and making all kinds of hot passionate love with its many critically acclaimed releases, I was delving into Nintendo’s motion-controlled past. One of the many games worth mentioning is Ghost Squad for the Wii."

10 Sega Franchises That Belong on the Xbox One

SEGA have brought so many wonderful franchises into the gaming world, one can almost begin to forget the sheer number of them. Despite this, a great many of them are yet to make an appearance on the Xbox One, a place where they would surely be welcomed with open arms.

This list covers some of the most pressing ones, and paints a picture of just how much Microsoft fans are missing out on.

They all deserve another chance on ps4, switch and Xbox one. Sega is actually seeing some profit on the games they have published so they may venture into developing and releasing older IP's. I am looking forward to Sakura Wars and I hope it releases on ps4 and Switch.

Weird article. "Belong" is a strange word to use, and not enough legitimate reasons are given as to why Xbox One in particular and not others.

For those that care not to dredge through 10 pages:

1) Yakuza
2) Daytona USA
3) Initial D
4) Phantasy Star Online
5) House of the Dead
6) Super Monkey Ball
7) Virtua Tennis
8) Persona
9) Panzer Dragoon
10) Nights

Yes it's good to have games on more than one platform so more people can play them but honestly, looking at that list...none of them would do well on the XB1. They'd certainly do better than zero but anyone with any inkling of playing those games wouldn't only own an xbox and thus would probably have already played them on other platforms.

For example, someone who has an interest in Japanese games wouldn't just own an xbox. They would have had to have owned at least one of PS2, PS3, PSP, or Vita at some point.

And of course there will be replies saying they've only owned an xbox and would love to play those games. Well there's not enough of you out there to make it worthwhile it would seem because Sega is in the business of making money. I'm sure they wouldn't deliberately sacrifice making more money just to spite Microsoft and their users.

Just going by VGChartz Yakuza 6 - .32M Yakuza Kiwami - .38M Gravity Rush 2 - .32M etc. so you mean to tell me Xbox wouldn't get anywhere near these numbers if these titles came out for the system? You guys are funny if thats what you call selling than wow

Thanks. So tired of the "click" era of internet.

WilliamSheridan2179d ago

Virtua Tennis and House of the Dead and I'd be very happy. I want new light gun games that work with this generation. Tv's should be bright enough now...

ILostMyMind2179d ago

I don't know what Super Monkey Ball and Initial D are, but all others games don't start on XB. What this shit site is talking about?

Yakuza would just flop on Xbox One with its heavily Japanese focused eccentricities

Persona even moreso

Razmiran2179d ago (Edited 2179d ago )

None of those would sell well on Xbox
Some of them already had some presence on previous Xbox consoles and they didnt sell

VR vs. 10 Franchises SEGA Would Be Crazy Not To Bring To VR – Part 2

Guns, girls, cars and dreams in week two of the SEGA list.

Auron2633d ago (Edited 2633d ago )

House of the deads, Panzer dragoons, space harrier, virtua on/Cop and shoot even shenmue.

Featuring_Dante2633d ago

House of the Dead needs to comeback!
Its now or never!

bouzebbal2633d ago

VR is the perfect platform for every rail shooter. From House of the Dead to Virtua Cop or even Time Crisis, Silent Scope..
They can also bring their racing franchises back, like Scud Race, Daytona, Sega Rally, Crazy Taxi, 18 Wheeler..
So many hidden treasures just waiting to be brought back.
