Because of greed. I know this isn't really Current Events, since the Tweet is from February, but nobody brought it up back then. They figured they wouldn't make them enough money to care, after Limited Run Games tried to negotiate for three years. Fuck WBD.

I mean, fuck WB and all, but also fuck LRG too.

They probably are correct in the revenue being too small because they only produce copies for about a year, then discontinue them. It can take months or even a year for them to ship the games too.
...I think I'm done here...

Same post as the last topic it is still a fair point.

Are they ones that released those awful Grandia series ports on Steam?

Yeah but the 200 million they lost on suicide squad is totally a good profit margin

I woulda bought a Tiny Toons Collection just for the chance to play Buster Busts Loose again for the first time in 30 years.

Also, with a revenue stream being too small I am not familiar with the process. Even if the stream is small, isnt it still just a source of revenue in general, once they sign off on it? Just allow a company like LRG to make it, they get a percentage of the profits, and WB gets the rest? Am I missing something?

I loved those games as a kid. The Tiny Toons sports package game was my jam. Used to play Tiny Toons soccer for hours. Animaniacs on the Genesis was awesome, too.
his comparison suggests we're closet african americans.

LRG would take five years to ship it and half the people who ordered it wouldnt get it so
I pray god will curse the writer, as the writer has cursed the world with this beautiful, stupendous creation, terrible in its simplicity, irresistible in truth

Why does it matter if the revenue is too small? Is still additional revenue from something they just have locked inside a vault doing nothing.

Because companies are about a profit and if they dont see enough to justify investing into it they wont bother?

And super heroes. I think he would totally end the DC franchise if he felt it would somehow make him more money

They aren't wrong in that being an incredibly niche market that would not have moved many copies.
See you next Wednesday.

Pretty much but as I said in the other topic gamers are going to gamer out and be pissed at this even though a tiny vocal minority have probably been asking for it and if this was never mentioned at all or even planned no one would give two shits about it.

This also means a Tiny Toon Adventures collection from Digital Eclipse is most likely off the table, too, despite them also wanting to do one.
