The year 2000. It use to sound so futuristic, but it’s hard to believe it was fifteen years ago. From the amount of things that were happening in the video game industry at the time, it really did feel like the future though: The Dreamcast was in its second year of life and championing online…
Nintendo took quite a hit in the mid-to-late 90’s due in no large part to the popularity of Sony’s PlayStation: games were cheaper to manufacture on disc and therefore cheaper to sell through to the consumer, a lot of Nintendo faithful third-parties from the 8-16 bit era abandoned ship to Sony’s platform and it had…
