  1. Is it possible for Sony to actually buy Nintendo if The Add-on SNES-CD or Nintendo Play Station gets released?

    If the SNES-CD contract was kept intact (i.e. all CD licenses and profits go to Sony), then if the add-on took off, Sony would steal all of Nintendo’s licensing profits, drive them near bankrupt, and maybe then they could buy Nintendo. But knowing Hiroshi Yamauchi, I reckon that he would either...
  2. Could the USSR work well enought on its orthodox form to be a pleasant place in modern day?

    I think you were right until the last paragraph. The problem is that we have a mountain of evidence that Communist regimes are simply not capable of doing that, at least to the extent that would be required to the make the USSR “a pleasant place” per the parameters laid out by OP.

    Photos from Alternate Worlds II (read FAQ first)

    A horde of Reanimated Life Forms in the abandoned streets of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, June 6, 2004. The photograph was taken by a young man named Terry before escaping to a survivor settlement in Lake Michigan.
  4. Largest possible British India?

    So, the first question is what kind of relationship "counts" as being part of the Raj? If purely administrative structures are enough, then Aden and the British territories in the Persian Gulf can be added to your list as they were governed as subdivisions of the Raj until 1937 and 1947...

    I think it is about the colonies being overseas from Portugal itself. Or exploration maybe.
  6. Better 20th Century for France?

    How could they pull this off? Pure luck - things never getting in position for the Heer to let Hitler take a gamble? Maybe France adds credibility to its eastern alliances before or after the Rhineland remilitarization by exchanging brigades with the Czechs and Poles on their forward defensive...
  7. The Reform Party: 20 Years of History

    This is still American democracy we're talking about. Things like universal healthcare have had strong majority support among the population for decades but look where that stands. Yes! This is true. I didn't mention the detailed results that weren't done yet and was hoping to get the next...
  8. The Reform Party: 20 Years of History
    Threadmarks: 2001 Part 1

    2001 would see the end of the Clinton Presidency and nobody knew who would be replacing him. None of the three major party nominees had attained a majority in the Electoral College, so none of them had been elected as the next president. It would be up to Congress to pick a president, which also...
  9. Better 20th Century for France?

    This is an interesting idea, France going soft on German-Austrian union moves. Borrowing an idea from Schwamberger, the clause is written into the treaty, but the French relax about it later. So when we get to the 1929-1931 era and the Germans and Austrians are talking about a Customs Union...
  10. How long could Nazi Germany delay its defeat?

    Problem is that requires your new leaders to be three things: 1). in a position of authority in the Nazi regime to take power in this way and keep it 2). Be able to recognise in 1943 Germany's going to lose in 1945 so completely 3). be capable/willing to give up everything they gained since...

    The New Order: Last Days of Europe - An Axis Victory Cold War Mod for HoIIV

    Man, the lengths a person is willing to go when a genocidal entity like the Third Reich holds their family hostage. Yeesh, it's suddenly starting to make sense why Vladimir is so racked with guilt over his past collaboration at the start of TNO.
