Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D remake

[Eurell]

My dad never let me open a game, like 35 years ago or some shit. So I still have the original Dragon Warrior Sealed and unopened for the NES. I wonder how much I could get for that haha

[Drai]

if you get it graded I see upwards of $7800 for a 9.8 graded copy of a first edition, it sold on Heritage Auctions, but for a bad 8.0 graded copy of it I see like $339, depends on what release batch it was from and all that.

SE Q1 earnings report.

https://www.hd.square-enix.com/eng/i...26q1slides.pdf

SE reported their Q1 earnings today with sales down 10.7% year over year. Sales came in at ¥59.2 billion ($400 million) vs ¥69.9 billion last year. Weak topline revenue was attributed to lower sales in HD Games (packaged games), MMOs, and mobile games.

Their MMO division sales for the quarter were ¥9.6 billion vs ¥12.5 billion in the same quarter last year. Operating profit in the MMO division was ¥3.6 billion, down from ¥6.6 billion last year. Despite MMO profits coming down significantly, MMOs (FF XI, FF XIV and DQ X) made up 40% of the company's operating profit for the year.

Yikes !!

And they still don't sell a pole dancer emote for FFXIV.

[Tyrath]

Is it just me or are SE's earning reports the only ones we ever hear about? lol

[Salodin]

Surprise releasing this one month before the FTT Remaster is an interesting choice

S-E wanting to still charge full price (after this discount goes away) for a digital-only copy of a three and a half year old game is something. Even the Meta Quest VR port was USD$30 for the full thing.

You may have missed that time they announced the four HD Kingdom Hearts games were finally coming to PC in 2021, then revealed it was Epic Games Store exclusive for two years and would cost USD $230.00.

You may have also missed that time when they were still greedy fucking assholes because that's exactly how much they cost on EGS today.

They are an exceedingly for-profit enterprise (and just following Nintendo's lead, tbh).
