I just thought of something: Midlothian High School (TTL's "fusion dance", to borrow a term from a show that the last update is getting to the time of, of Columbine and Parkland) is Aimee Mann's alma mater. Did she participate in any fundraising events for the high school? Or especially for the victims?
I think she would have written a song for it. The song itself didn't chart or anything like that, but it did raise some money and she also raised some money at her concert tour in 2002.
1. What is the statis of the eartbound series, did mother 3 get localised, did it even get made in this timeline, I imagine it to not be censored much due to this timelines more acceptance of LGBT rights
2. Did the Heavens Gate Cult get affected in any way, that suicide was one of the most notorious events of the 90s and considering how the other events of the like sorta fizzled out
3. Electronic Arts' status, considering they basically pirated genisis games to sell their own sports titles and that they were refusing to port games to the dreamcast in the OTL, and considering the karma that could be given to them, what were their status
4. Did wikipeidia get renamed or affected in anyway, just want to know what you would do to it
There were four Mother games instead of three ITTL, and they all got localized. None of them were huge hits, but they did decently well.
Heaven's Gate still goes down much the same as it did IOTL, including the mass suicides. Only difference is the numbers: 39 die ITTL, a few more than IOTL.
Electronic Arts is still doing quite well ITTL. They're still doing the Madden games, have tons of other hits (including their NBA games, which are doing about as well as the NBA 2K games IOTL). Karma did not come for them.
Wikipedia is pretty much the same as IOTL.
What happened to Comcast ITTL?
What was the best-selling Google Nexus title?
What's up with NFL games ITTL?
Did Apple ever make a Sonic game for the iPhone ITTL?
I wonder what the next-gen consoles ITTL will be?
Is Samsung still going to co-develop with Google ITTL?
Is a concept like "The Blacklist" around ITTL? Personally, I think Jon Bokenkamp could have become a game designer ITTL, and The Blacklist ends up taking the place of OTL's GTA IV.
Comcast is going as strong as IOTL. Small butterflies here and there, but they're still going strong. They don't buy NBC ITTL, but they buy other assets that are equivalent in terms of value/reach.
Best selling Nexus title? So far,
Miraculous Ladybug.
The Covenant Zero is coming up fast though.
YOu can check out the Super Bowl updates if you'd like, we've done them almost every year of the timeline. Use the Threadmarks and look for NFL posts toward the start of each "year".
They made many. Many, many, many. Too many to mention here. There are dozens, including ports, crappy cash-in games, and actual full good games in a variety of genres. If you are a Sonic fan and you have an iPhone, you'll be very happy.
You'll see ^_^
Samsung and Google are working together on hardware and network features, but Samsung isn't doing games. They might fund a software company or two, and publish some games, but they're not in the game creation business.
No
Blacklist, but Jon Bokenkamp works on, doesn't create, but works on a somewhat similar NBC series starring James Spader in a morally ambiguous lead role. He plays a CIA agent who uses unorthodox means to complete his missions. The show is a bit less serialized than
The Blacklist, it has a similar "bad guy of the week" format, but more of these episodes are standalone. Lyssa Fielding actually guest-stars in an episode in 2018 as a retired operative who takes on a mercenary job and ends up clashing with Spader's character in the process. Bokenkamp doesn't work on any games ITTL, but Spader's done some video game voices, most notably in
Necrocracy and
Blackheart 666.
