I don't have much to say for this one. Maybe I'll add on to them in a Future Post, that's not so messy. This one is mainly to bring awareness to such things. There has been plenty of Old and New Devices from wherever. Maybe you all know more?...


This post is also connected to a Past Post I had Made:

Nintendo Playstation:


Panasonic Q GameCube:


Things with Sega:

This part was inspired by this article by user: Jusaiki. Their section: The Digivice apocalypse
https://retrogametalk.com/threads/digimon-is-not-what-it-used-to-be.1956/

There has been plenty of Digital-Pet Devices before. One idea I had since people like Yu Gi Oh. If somebody, either Fans or The Company. Made a Yu Gi Oh Digital-Pet Device. An actual Device that is not a Phone, but could be connected to it. Give a reason to get other Physical Media. Just like how PC and Console should be. Have true differences between the PC and Console Version, that'll give folk a reason to buy a Console or PC Version... Back to the Pet Device. It could have New to old Monsters you could collect, find, turn into, earn. Have fights with others. Have some type of Network where at random either NPC or Another Person's Monster went roaming while You're doing something else, and battles other's Monsters. Returns with something for you. Physical Cards could be implemented into this. Jusaiki had mentioned Pokemon Go. Thing like that could be Implemented as well, add better quality of life changes to it, that take in consideration other's living environments.


MegaMan had one from what I recall:

This part is inspired by user: Waffles. Their article The Wonderful World Of Demos:
https://retrogametalk.com/threads/the-wonderful-world-of-demos.1972/

I had brief mentioned about Demo Disk in a Past post, in a response to User: MrFabulous.
https://retrogametalk.com/threads/w...s-jungle-back-to-video-games.1703/#post-19408

To keep short. I had wanted to share and go deeper about them. Asking this community about it. I'm still thinking of how to go about it, or if I should do it. But one of the things I was gonna share was a thing called: The Haunted Ps1.

There are still those who like and make such things. Or people who still play demos even though the full game is out. This goes into my Reasoning To Buy Certain Media.



As for Advertising. Maybe y'all know of others. But one that comes to mind that I found is the Dreamcast Magazine Videos.

My whole thing about advertising Games is this. Instead of showing just CGI, show actual Gameplay, no Cutscenes or In-game Cutscenes. The whole point is to earn the Trust of your Life Support aka The People. Not lie or Manipulate them by use of CGI. Show a Title Name at least, if you don't have anything "Presentable." Show beta or prototype or just skull and bones of what you got. Just not a lie like CGI. How they handle CGI for Advertising is Mishandled, Lazy, Reckless, Careless to begin with. An example is Assassin's Creed 3. Cyberpunk is another. People should take this up and be a Leading Example on How Advertising will be and should be done. Through honesty. Could even do like those old behind the scenes things of showing how the game was made or during development, if any remembers those. It was done with animation as well. Showing such Vulnerability, Honesty, Struggle, Doubt, Hesitation, Teamwork and so-on. This helps inspire Youth and Old. Also helps grow Respect for the Art, for Her. Art is a Feminine Energy. She is not to be Misused, abused, Vultured, taken from then Ignored. Balance is needed. Give back and She will return to You, in more Abundance than you gave Her. Love & Respect her not Pimp her and only like what She gives. The People must take back and Redefine.


Assassin's Creed 3 Example:

Dragon Ball Z: The Legacy of Goku II Development Documentary:

Making Naruto the Movie 1 [Inside the Animation Studio] (For the animation Example. Maybe somebody here knows more. Could create an Article or Thread):

Next are some Pictures that still Pertain to this Topic. Lastly. Stuff like this being more Known-Of, could help Future Developers and Other Creators. Could even Inspire, ignite that Passion, that Flame inside those who never knew they had such Fire. Lastly. What are y'alls thoughts on this? Do you know of any more?
