instead of porting it to the switch can we pls go back to 2007

EA finally realized that re-releasing DLC non stop was not gonna generate new sales.

I don’t think they realized anything. I worked for them for 13 years. I think they are likely looking at a strategy to bring archived games with low hardware requirements to new platforms that can run them.
For example, I worked on NBA and Madden Mobile. These were ps3 games that were ported.
It’s a good strategy. Why start from scratch when you can just port existing titles that had good sales.

“Surprisingly alright” doesn’t sound like much praise.

Don’t worry, they’ll port it and charge 20$ more than it releases for on switch

Man of the my sims game I only played the racing one
I have vague memories but I really only remember the “free roam” areas of the forest and what i wanna say was a beach town
I also remember the game was at like 10 fps so little me was extra terrible at this particular game
Also there was a rocket ship because of course there was

I played this on the wii, was fun and I liked the creativity with building furniture!

Honestly all of the mysims games I played were the shit when I was a child. Don’t know what I would thing about them today though but
