Partly because so many characters that people associate with Playstation didn't appear in All Stars... one of the downsides of relying on third party support so heavily I guess.

I was gonna say. They can't all be winners. Not every Mario Kart clone is good. Truth be told, many of the MK clones suck. But every once in a while, there's a really fun clone that rivals the original. For example, I happen to like Diddy Kong Racing a lot more than MK64.

I haven't been at all impressed with Sega's games in recent years, but I feel like they could make a good SSB clone. At least, they have all the right characters for that type of game. I don't feel like Sony does. Part of the charm of SSB is that the characters are all cartoony. It makes it more playful. Sega definitely has that. And I feel like Sega could make a good brawler type game, as oppose to a kart racing game.

Sega definitely has the properties to make a SSB clone. The question is if any of their development houses have the skill to make it anything better than mediocre.

Yes.

But they wouldn't release it outside of Japan.

I'm at that point in Phantom Hourglass where I'm not having fun any more. I hate when this happens.
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

It felt so stupid to have the monster guys from Bioshock, and not freaking Crash Bandicoot.

What, were the licensing rights for a character Acti doesn't even use, too expensive for them? Also Spyro, Cloud, Lara Croft, Solid Snake (or was he in this one?)...not a single PS1 era icon in this :/

Does anybody here know about expanded OXbox compatibility on Jtagged or RGH consoles? How much is it expanded? I can think of certain games I really wish to play on OXbox, but I like to have as few consoles as possible, so I was hoping these games would be covered.
