Look at all those first-party titles coming in the first half of next year. Well done, Nintendo.

Nintendo decimating it's competition again, there's a few games there I'll want to pick you. Can't believe we're getting The Thousand Year door, I've seen people talk about how good it is, now I'll be able to play it. Surprised to see Vanillaware there too, their style is so easy to pick out when you see it, don't know if I'll get that game though.

raWfodog987d ago

I think of the Switch as more 'complimentary' than 'competition'. But that's just my personal opinion. Not hating on the Switch at all since I have purchased three of them for the family's use, and enjoyed a number of the titles over the years. It's just not my first go-to system of choice.

notachance987d ago

there’s just no feasible way to pump out so many flagship games like God of War, Tsushima, TLoU, etc in the same timeframe as those smaller title games. Even reusing assets like they did in GoW, Horizon, BotW takes up to 5 years in development.

What Sony and MS should do is investing into smaller titles, something like Hi-Fi Rush to fill in the gaps. Remastering their old games like Nintendo could also works, I’m still waiting for modern version of Lost Odyssey and The Legend of Dragoon.

@raWfodog,
Personally, my first choice is PC despite all the GPU pricing issues, I'd prefer playstation, but this gen hasn't really had enough exclusives to make me purchase a PS5 yet.

@Notachance,
I'd love a PC port of Lost Odyssey, we already have a PS classic version of the Legend of Dragoon, I think that's good enough, I couldn't trust modern SE to do a remake of it.

AdonisIsBeast987d ago

Well said. Sony would do well to figure out their 1st party output as well

badz149987d ago (Edited 987d ago )

yeah, it must be so hard and expensive for Nintendo to develop for last gen (sorry, last LAST gen) hardware targeting 720p30fps!

FinalFantasyFanatic987d ago

@badz149,
To be fair, the Switch came out before the PS5/Series X, so it didn't even have access to the tech that those two consoles did. Doesn't make those games any less fun though.

badz149986d ago

@FinalFantasyFanatic

LOL I don't even mean the PS5 and Series consoles. There are games on the PS3 that look way better than the best the Switch has to offer!

PRIMORDUS987d ago (Edited 987d ago )

What's wrong with the Switch section here? Clicking the Switch tab only shows 3 articles and nothing more.

Christopher987d ago

I'll let them know that's going to the wrong page. It should go to https://n4g.com/channel/nin...

PRIMORDUS987d ago

Ah ok got it thanks Christopher 👍

Elda987d ago

The only games that I saw that captured my interest are Contra & Mario RPG.

thesoftware730987d ago

Yes, the Contra looks great!

Gotta look at it again, but the stage with the hoverbikes, that from super Contra. Is this a new game or remaster of SC?

MrNinosan987d ago

Just kill the Switch already.

cammers1995987d ago

Go buy a different console if you don't like it already.

MrNinosan987d ago

I have all consoles, PSVR2, PCVR.
What is it you want me to buy?

I just want the Switch 2 to be released so we can let the early 2000 behind us

Agent75987d ago

How about F-Zero GX with the AX tracks which are hidden in the GameCube version on Switch? Probably one of the weirdest decisions from Nintendo. A new Wave Race is well overdue and also Pilotwings. Poor decisions.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle30d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7730d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments
