Revisionist history. We were not living in harmony.

The Dreamcast lovers cried into their Shen Mue.

Game Cube fans quietly played Smash bros.

Except in this version, the Air Nomads collapsed because their American office was spending more on marketing than on actual development.

Also didn’t help that the air nomad controller was fucking borked.

IMO Xbox is the fire nation, especially in that era of gaming.
