Amiga One Dev board screenshot UPDATE : Comment 35 of 38 | ANN.lu |
Posted by TBone on 11-Jul-2002 16:16 GMT | In reply to Comment 33 (Ole-Egil): "Then get a license and port it to x86 yourself. Seems you are rather sure of success, so a few million clams spent on development shouldn't be much of a problem, right? ;-) "
Well that's hardly a logical progression of thought, is it?
A market succeeds based on it's ability to give the customer what they want to pay for, not by what they tell them to do themselves. It's already been proven that there is in fact a market for it, this market is beneficial to Amiga, but a certain developer makes a living porting games, and his needs outweigh both the end user and Amiga...
It doesn't feel right, especially since I'm supposed to pay quite a bit more money for underperforming (by comparison) hardware, to subsidise a game porting software market I won't benefit from anyway.
The "Buy our product our way or do it yourself" arguement isn't a way of winning customers, it's a way of shutting them up an losing them if they feel you've alienated them.
As for the "doing it yourself", well, it is being done :) |
