I do, at the time I thought an "indie console" was a neat idea, and a friend of mine actually bought one, but the game selection ended up being pretty underwhelming (among other issues), and the only game I can even remember playing is TowerFall, which was a great game, but it was also almost immediately ported, and wasn't nearly enough to carry a console alone.

I bought one years ago for like $40 and it quickly became an emulation box. The controller was all kinds of garbage though. The only non-emulated game I really remember playing a lot of was Canabalt.

I love that I am single handedly responsible for Red Weed being the #8 game board, as it is something I used to store links I found on my phone/PC and wanted to save for later to use on my PC/phone lol, plus some alt testing nonsense.

Yeah but they didn't include the gamepad.

I never got one since there were other devices I was interested in at the time but it's price point was pretty accessible, just no market for it

I was a good idea with some terrible, borderline self-sabbotaging implementation.

Like, right off the bat it shouldn't have been Android.

Going all in on live service and F2P was also really dumb.

And it looks like it only took a single post, as yesterday's post was the only one that has been made there since last year.

I'm not ever posting on that board again, because I don't want the game title to be stuck in my Active Posts like it was the last time I posted there.

That entire meltdown was just a spectacle of "dude, stop posting". He just kept putting his foot in his mouth. He was already successful and relatively well-known for his game music (which wasn't even his apparently, but people bought the girft). Had he just shut up when it became obvious it was a doomed product, he could have escaped only being known as the jerk from G4.
