I really want to upgrade to the Pro, but after shelling out $400 for my base model I can't see putting up that same dollar amount for what you get with the Pro. Sure I could trade my base model towards it to lower the cost, but i'd rather just keep my base model as a back up/bedroom system.
All the pro does for me is make me resent my original ps4 purchase. I havent been too keen on the ps4 exclusives to this point and most of my mulitplat games I get on Xbox cuz t...
More devs and publishers should jump aboard now. This thing is going to be a hot seller its already sold out everywhere, people are going MAD for Nintendo stuff right now. Ive spoken with several managers at major retailers including Walmart, GameStop, and Best Buy and theyre all anticipating the Switch to be a HUGE success for Nintendo. The timing is right for something a little different but still quality. The switch doesnt need to be the best, it just has to be good enough and it damn well...
I think people need to calm the eff down and realize that Nintendo is building a new platform from the ground-up. How can you know whether its good or not if you havent played it yet? Its not like the ps4 and xbox came flying out of the gates with super awesome quality games that you can still be satisfied with this far into those systems' lifecycles. Plus, I see ALOT of HYPE for games that turn out to be 6's and 7's, like the new RE 7.7.
Then Nintendo gets sha...
When are people going to realize that Nintendo's art style and attention to detail equate to them not needing the most "powerful" hardware to make great looking games?! Ive got ps4, x1 and wii u and the wii u actually had some incredible looking games on much less powerful hardware. Great art style and smooth graphical performance are much more important than hyper realistic textures and other graphical features that dont add to gameplay. Unless of course you prefer to watch gam...
Good stuff! I like the retro look but I would like some upgraded HD visuals as an option, like what Capcom is doing with Street Figter Switch version. Switch launch window is looking better by the day!
What people are underestimating here is the buying power of the soccer moms and dads. Nintendo knows they can sell multiple systems to millions of families across the world as each child will want their own Nintendo Tablet. This is very similar to iPad or any other tablet. I know several families where each kid has their own $500 tablet so why not a Nintendo one? Look at how many 3DS XL systems they sold for $200 a pop! I know families that have 5 kids and each has an XL AND an iPad. Sure the...
I wonder if the Wii U version still has the "second screen" experience they always talked about. They're very ambiguous with their statements regarding the "same experience" on both consoles. Technically the Wii U has more features as you have the 2 screen experience. This actually enhanced Wind Waker HD greatly and was one of the reasons I was looking forward to the Wii U version. Did they scrap the 2nd screen map and touch screen item selection of the wii U version t...
Hit nail on head. I buy Nintendo stuff to get my kids into gaming and we love nintendo in my household. But as the parent buying all this Nintendo stuff, I find this whole thing insulting to consumers. I bought the wii u for the new Zelda but i had to wait for it this long so they could co-develop it for the new system as well? And now they want to sell us "deluxe" versions of the same wii u titles nearly every wii u owner has already bought... for the same $60 price no less?! Im ju...
What the hell has happened to console launches? I remember when the first month of a console release was stacked with games from every genre possible. There was a sports, racing, platform, rpg, action, shooter and some sort of extreme sports game always released within the first 1-2 months of a consoles life. This is just unreal they really needed to hit a home run but they got a bunt for a foul instead. They dont even try to get you excited for the launches anymore. Its sad i really hoped Ni...
Im a nintendo fan and I cant believe theyre doing this! There is no excuse. They really needed to add more tracks as well as characters and battle mode for them to call it a deluxe version. And to have no upgrade option for those who already bought it on wii u is asinine. They havent learned jack shit about the way this industry is going. Its like theyre trying to piss off the few diehard customers they have left. I cant believe this is how this is all playing out. Just go 3rd party already. ...
If this is pretty much the same on both, the wii u version is actually more feature rich if you factor in the 2 screen experience. On the wii u you can play on the tv and use the gamepad screen as a map and inventory manager without having to constantly pause the game. This was a selling point they used at one point but that feature is abandoned for the switch release? Ill be just getting the wii u version cuz its the reason i spent 300 on the system. They really think im dropping another 300...
Everyone cried foul when they cancelled Fable Legends too, but having played the beta it was the right decision. Scalebound had promise but thats it... It really did look a bit rough. If they made the call to not waste anymore resources on it then it was probably for the better. Im sure there will be some new stuff announced soon and all will be fine. People always overreact when it comes to this kind of thing.
Of course they should let it rest. Its a legendary series and they risk watering it down and tarnishing its legacy if they dont. Having said that, im ok with them making a couple of side stories to flesh out the universe, but ND should be allowed to do whatever the hell they want with whatever the hell budget they desire! Why make MORE uncharted when they very well could create something that surpasses uncharted?!
Sony has enough faith in ND that theyll let them run wild an...
If you own a One or a ps4, ur not buying the switch for these games or any 3rd party games for that matter. Thats all there is to it and Im pretty sure the switch will miss out on the majority of big 3rd party titles, just as the wii u did. But Nintendo is poised to bring it with the 1st party stuff and the 3rd's that do release will likely see decent sales.
I picture an awesome 1st and 2nd party lineup, a bunch of Indies, and a select few 3rd party titles that do well...
The problem with narrative focused games is that there seems to be no balance between gameplay and story. Its like ok you bought a game, now watch us try to make the best movie we can.
Some games can pull it off, like Uncharted series, silent hill, gta series, etc. But Remedy really seems like they just want to make movies to me. Alan wake was great, i loved it. But i really wanted to explore that world. So much detail that seemed wasted and qb feels even worse to me. I li...
They did. And people still bitched about that lol. They took campaign co op and the timer out and made a separate co op mode that features the timer. Its literally the best solution and people are still mad.
I love how Sony has the balls to try new stuff like this, even though they had this sort of idea in the early years of ps3 with eye of judgement. But looking back, Sony and Nintendo are similar in that they take some big chances whether they reach mass market or not. Sony is always on the cutting edge regardless of how it plays out for them. They arent always successful but at least theyre taking chances. 3d TV, vr, move, eye toy, eye of judgement, all the obscure move titles. Im glad they ar...
They obviously just don't like Dead Rising and/or are sick of zombies. For the rest of us, this is the dead rising we've been waiting for. Most other reviews are pointing to such and other reviews mention how many things theyve fixed from dr3. Its day 1 for me!
Having just completed the Single Player mode.... Wow this game is amazing! If you are sick of cod and/or like a good sp with your shooter, this is the game to get. No other shooter can touch it this year.
Nice I want to upgrade but I have the LE Destiny white console so I don't really want to trade it. $400 is out of my budget for another ps4 tho. I smell a $199 slim ps4 and a $299 Pro ps4 just around the corner too. Sony is going to be coming into e3 with some crazy good momentum from all the fresh exclusives so a price drop will steal the thunder from Nintendo and MS in dramatic fashion. Plus, im gonna be mad if I splurge on the pro now only to have some crazy dope LE Pro console bundle ...
