On that note - did America do any good retro videogames? Seems like all the good ones were from japan. I can only name Westwoods games, and they made primarily PC software.

They made better games than America actually.

>unreal/ut series
>fallout/baldur's gate/planescape
>the quest games (king's quest, space quest, police quest)
>thps series
>duke3d

>half life series

Off the top of my head.

24'000-ish pieces of ZX Spectrum software and a crap-ton of C64 software too.

Nah, nought.

Between DMA, Psygnosis, Bitmap Brothers, Sensible Software, Rare, Core, Bizarre Creations, Team 17, Bullfrog, Codemasters, Traveller's Tales, Supersonic, et al. you should be able to find something good that they made.

Anon it's not just geographical features.

The US isn't split up into the countries of Puerto Rico, The West Continental US, The East Continental US The Continental Divide, the 8 countries of Hawaii, and Alaska with its many small countries.

Legal definitions don't dictate common speech. Both the US and the UK are countries in common speech, because they're big sovereign blobs. We aren't lawyers and we're speaking casually.
>>
>>3387453
and yet you can't name a single one

Ayy

Battletoads

>>3387451
the ones after that weren't, with the exception of CD
>>
>>3387451
Yeah, but Sonic 2 and Sonic 3 were made in America. There was some drama at Sega, so one of the lead developers of Sonic moved to the US and developed Sonic 2 in Sega America.

Another lead developer stayed in Japan and made his own Sonic 2 which was completely different. It was released as Sonic CD.

That's why Sonic CD and Sonic 2 share qualities with Sonic the Hedgehog that the two don't mutually share.

Why the fuck are you having a meltdown over a discussion about language? No one disapproved about talking about it! You definitely have a persecution complex anon.

>>3386841
Is this thread supposed to be a "war" between different regions in the world about what region "hasn't made any games at all"? I mean, this board is filled with shitposting but come on, this is just getting stale.

And yes, good games have been released and/or developed in that country. Unless you'd call Rare, DMA (Now Rockstar *), Ocean and Team 17 all memes of course. OK, truth be told: Ocean's console games sucked even harder than LJN's but still, they've made some games that aren't terrible.

Donkey Kong County 1 is the only good game in that list

The UK isn't a country.

Neither is Wales really either but that's a separate sadder sheep fuckier issue
