I remember the game.com because everyon called it the game dot com and also it made the GBA look like a highpowered machine.

Nemo2342 posted:What about Doom? It does not, which should indicate to you exactly who the game.com was aimed at and why it was trash. If I remember right the Game.Coms best selling game was "Light Out" which is that puzzle game where when you push a block in a grid, all the sorrounding connected blocks also switch state

Oh wait, one more thing, part of the reason the games on this system are dogshit and things they built like Resident Evil didn't get finished, every game was made internally by Tiger and they prevented 3rd parties from making games for it. Edit: Wait, Resident Evil 2 for the Game.Com was finished? Laffoooo

Like, its sort of a contrast with CD-I where the platforms gimmick was supposed to be make the money on the units with long tail revenue on the discs, because phillips was used to the audio business.
