Later this month, a book will be released that covers the console wars between Nintendo and SEGA known as “Console Wars: Sega, Nintendo, and the Battle That Defined a Generation”. GamesBeat secured an early copy and shared some very interesting details about some of the information included.

Check out the summary below:

• Nintendo didn’t care about making friends, and this helped Sega. Making friends was nice for Sega, but it was much easier to rely on the hatred others had for Nintendo.
• The U.S. government brought a lawsuit against Nintendo on the anniversary of Pearl Harbor.
• The real reason Sega failed was because of the war between Sega of Japan and Sega of America.
• Walmart barely even wanted to speak to Sega of America, let alone stock its Genesis system back in the early days of the 16-bit console’s life in the U.S. This was…Because Nintendo was scary as hell.
• Sega of America boss Tom Kalinske was integral to Barbie, Flintstone vitamins, and He-Man

You can find a more in-depth summary of these tidbits on GamesBeat here.

Day-one DLC has never been particularly well-received, in part because some publishers end up including the content in question in the final retail product. Consumers feel that if you’re going to do this, they shouldn’t have to fork over extra cash for DLC simply locked away on the disc/cartridge.

At least in the case of Mario Golf: World Tour, the game’s DLC seems to be offered through separate downloads. The game’s packs are fairly large in size which indicates that they weren’t included in the cartridge and aren’t simply “unlocked” when making a purchase.

Check out the European download sizes for Mario Golf: World Tour’s DLC packs below:

Three-Pack Set / Season Pass — 489 blocks
Mushroom Pack — 447 blocks
Free-Trial Course Pack — 138 blocks

There’s some nice looking stuff here, so I recommend checking out the gallery above. You can also find photos of Nintendo’s company handbook from 2013 here.
