Don't see many call G-1 Reflector pointless as it isn't a working camera and can't take pictures.
Nobody called 1984 Soundwave and 1985 Blaster pointless because they were not working radios.
Didn't see any complaints that the cassettes-bots were pointless as they couldn't record anything.
Never saw any buyers complain they bought 1984 Megatron and called it pointless. As it didn't shoot real bullets and couldn't use it as a real firearm.
Nobody called the 2007 movie, Real Gear toys pointless, because they were expecting $6 dollar toys to have electronics in them and be fully functional real world things.

Even then, people would still complain about them not being able to play the game discs.DISCHARGE wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Somehow I feel like there would be less criticism of video game console Transformers if this had come out about 10 years ago.
Or if they just used more current consoles or devices

You saying adults can't have their own "make believe" stuff too?Rated X wrote:The figures you speak of were all marketed as "make believe" and sold at Hasbro toystore prices. This thing is being marketed to adults and sold at Takara collectors prices.
So it would make sense for it to actually work just like device label Blaster actually works.

I seriously don't understand you people. "What's the point if it doesn't play real games?" Hold on, let me drive my Masterpiece Sideswipe car to work. Oh that's right it's a transforming toy model of a car. Exactly what this is.
I don't see how that could be a make or break decision to buy it at all if you had any real interest; would you actually hook this up to your TV? Do you have Mega Drive carts laying around? It's just a thing you say you want but you'd never use it. If you want to play Mega Drive/Genesis games there's plenty of ways to go about that without requiring it be included in this voyager sized figure.
Sega has released TONS of Mega Drive/Genesis game packs on many consoles and PC. Go buy those and be happy for the 10 minutes you'd actually play them.

The figures you speak of were all marketed as "make believe" and sold at Hasbro toystore prices. This thing is being marketed to adults and sold at Takara collectors prices.
So it would make sense for it to actually work just like device label Blaster actually works.

You're beyond help, the fact that you're allowed to post on this website astounds me.
You expect someone to design an fully articulated humanoid figure that transforms into a fully functioning console, do you realize how much something like that would cost to manufacture?
Just to put things into context, this toy costs about a hundred bucks, and the Megadrive retailed for twice that muchRated X wrote:it would make sense for it to actually work just like device label Blaster actually works.
His screen splits into three halves that alone should tell you he's a functioning, deluxe scale laptop
Next thing you'll tell me Music Label Soundwave can play cassettes
