- Personally, I disagree with this idea and the previously mentioned group for
- the Sega Genesis. Is this going to continue until we have a group for every
- game system that comes out?
-
- What next, a group only for Super Mario games? What will happen when the
- super-nes becomes outdated and is no longer appreciated like the nes is now?
- We'll have groups all over the place.
-
- There was earlier mention of a marketplace group for video games and I'd like
- to see that, but to break the group down into the different systems is overkill.
-
- Use a kill file if you don't want to read about Sega, or Gameboy etc.
-
- I vote no for alt.games.super-nes and any other game system specific
- groups.
-
- I vote yes for alt.games.video-marketplace, or something like it.
-
- I'm not flaming Richard, just stating my opinions.
