Norderlanders: A Gaming Podcast

E87: Preservation Team


Listen Later

We been good Norderlanders. We have played so many games this week! Quite fun, and lot to talk about! So we start out this episode with just plain old impression and thoughts about games. How it should be. 

Anyways, news!

SEGA made the great decision to remove old Sonic games before the release of Sonic Origins. Haven't they learned anything? Gamers don't like that and this is a classic "people in suits" decision that will not go great with the consumer. Is the publisher's job to make sure there is a reason to buy the remaster versions instead of the original ones. Don't you agree Rockstar?

Sony has reportedly started their own "preservation team". This could mean many things, but all in all they acknowledge their great libary of legacy games. Will we see more older Playstation games on the new PS Plus service? Or maybe an actual PS3 emulator for the PS5? We got to wait on this one but yes, care about your legacy Sony!

Other than that, Ubisoft may be acquired next and Norderlanders have a Steam Deck incoming. Emil finally got the "complete your purchase" mail from Valve. So we are preparing to have all hands on deck!
