[Multiplatform] OutRun Online Arcade - Magical Cum Shower

Some good, bad or just plain news, depending on how you want to look at it: seems OutRun Online Arcade is going to be an XBLA exclusive in NA.

Quote:

OutRun Online Arcade will not be released on PSN in North America. Sega Europe informed the site that Europe will receive the title on XBLA and PSN; however, North America will only receive the XBLA version. No explanation was given.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Why would it be good news, in any capacity?

Even though this doesn't effect me since I was planning on buying the circlebox version, I wonder about the reasons here. It doesn't make sense from a moneyhat standpoint, since why go for exclusivity in only one region. It doesn't makes sense from the SONY DON'T LIKE NO PORTS thing people throw around because there's a shit tonne of that on the PSN. I can't imagine it failing SCEA QC tests and passing SCEE's.

Seems really odd.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

It wouldn't, I'm with you that having it on more platforms is always the best option, but then some people seem to have a hard-on for console exclusivity.

I agree, it doesn't make a lot of sense, especially if you've done the PS3 version of the game as well. The only thing I can think is that Microsoft have raided the coffers again to secure exclusivity with money.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Even still. They can't really be banking on what's most likely a port of a three year old game that tanked like hell to be any sort of big seller here. Not enough to be worth any sort of deal cost, no?

Granted, all you'd really have to do to pay off Sega these days would be to promise not to look at them with a big ol' frowny face.
