Not necessarily. That's the old "I made Twitter in a weekend" joke. That's not because you can technically replicate a product that your company will be successful. What makes a company successful are sales forces, inter

Sorry but that’s just not true. You learn about what happens in Sweden because statistically it never happens. On the other hand, the rest of the world never know about the latest bi-monthly school shooting in the US.

Except most of those games aren't "retro" because, unlike real retro games, they are mostly still updated and they work on any recent computer/console. So for me, even for the oldest ones, they are still part of the same
