Soo... Sony wants a Mario level IP.

[David_TheMan]

Crying? I’m simply saying what you’re saying is false, that never happened, its a fabrication, you made it up.

And thats not what you originally said, you said Sony turned down an offer from Square Enix, and that their CEO’s are dumb. Again, that never happened. Also, there isn’t any square enix IP that is more valuable than Sonys, even Final Fantasy, which is lucky to sell 10 million copies isn’t even doing horizon and Tsushima numbers, much less God of War and Spider-Man.

Bringing up Chrono Trigger as a “mascot IP” is some Lost in The World type shyt that I don’t think any of us were prepared to see in this thread

Nothing I said is false, squeenix is prepping to sale by reorging, Sony could purchase they have not offered.
Period.
Rumor is they went to them direct because of history and sony wasn't ready.

All that said Chrono Trigger is a valuable IP that is collecting dust like a lot of the old SNES and NES Square IPs

Well, Pokemon.

As much as people like Sonic, they movies aren’t really smashing records and the games definitely ain’t. Sonic Frontiers was the biggest sonic game since Adventure and it only sold 3.2 million so far?

I thought both Sonic movies were decent and I've never been a Sega or Sonic fan.

Again, even if that was a discussion behind the scenes none of us would even know that. All we know is Square Enix recently saying they want to expand and buy their own developers.

And their NFT nonsense.

Chrono trigger s NOT a valuable IP, that game is 30 years old damn near, ain’t no one but 30+ year old even remember that game

The second sonic movie was good but its box office gross was a little over what Uncharted did. Neither IP is really doing Mario numbers

The second sonic movie was good but it just gross a little over what Uncharted did. Neither IP is really doing Mario numbers

No IP can, Nintendo's platform is literally carried by Mario. Which makes sense with a 30+ year head start.

Chrono Trigger Chrono Cross is a valuable IP, Final Fantasy is a valuable IP, they have a history of valuable IPs they have just sat on, thats they point.
We can agree to disagree but the fact remains they have a history of IP that Sony could exploit in a purchase.

As for the initial point, leaks happen all the time to generate pressure, such as the early leaks of ATT buying Discovery before official word came down.

 

[The Devil's Advocate]

Sony CEO went to see Super Mario Bros. Movie and says it’s a beautiful and wonderful IP

Sony rarely compliment other companies but they recently made an exception for Nintendo and The Super Mario Bros Movie. Sony Corp’s new President and Chief Executive Officer Kenichiro Yoshida says…

and we all know this little bugger right here is the one to compete with a Master Chief, Mario, Sonic, Ryu, and all them other mascots that carry their brands. am I wrong?

Won’t be any new mascots doing crazy numbers. It was a different time when all those were established.

Leave that kiddie bullshyt to Nintendo

 

[The Mad Titan]

Sony wants to turn an IP into a brand eh


Nintendo and Xbox have a couple household IP's that transcend just gaming.

Playstation not so much.

Crash was the closest thing they had, their best bet is to go with ratchet. It's been around and on playstation for decades.

 

[Methodical]

Crash was intended to be a mascot character for Sony since PS1. They fukked up with Crash. So Astro Bot to be a real PlayStation's mascot

Stop taking credit for buying an existing IP that was moving millions before they bought it.
