An Old Video Game is New Again
A tribute to one of gaming’s icon’s found in Nintendo’s newest console, and an accident gives gamers something they have asked for.
FOX’s Eammonn Dignam explains in this “FOX Bits”:
This seems to be a tribute to Iwata-san. He died at the age of 55 on July 11th, 2015.
Game Developers Conference is posting his GDC keynotes in full onto YouTube. This keynote, held in 2005, is entitled Heart of a Gamer.
Survival monster hunting game ‘Fortnite’ made a bit of a mistake saying a ‘configuration issue’
allowed players of both the Microsoft X-Box-one X and Sony Playstation Four platforms to be able to play with and against each other.
This is a feature that’s been pushed by X-Box boss Phil Spencer for awhile who made deals that allow PC, and Nintendo to join Microsoft’s current players.
I would have liked to see them leave it on.
