They rush out to be first and hardly checking out their story lol.
@responding comments.. yeah it does depend on the publisher . I wasn't singling out Nintendo but rather saying in general.
From what i can remember there was an article talking about the size of Switches cases (a few weeks ago?) and the haters came out in full force.. what we should be fussing over is the lack of instruction manuals in the games. It would also be nice if they made a micro sd card holder inside the case
While I do understand this go green idea (it seems to be more about cutting costs than saving the planet. In some cases it actually inconveniences the customer), I don't think manuals are a waste of paper. I love reading the booklet of a newly bought game.
Yeah that may be true for those who grew up with him (myself included), but its not necessarily true for this generation of youth. My son doesn't know anything about Crash (he loves Sonic & Mario), but he will when this game comes out.
And nintendo is doing the same with VR ... you could even say online features as well. There are things Nintendo comes out first in console-wise but there is other things they follow others on (sometimes way later)
I always say a Good Idea is a good idea , It doesn't matter who comes up with it. What matters is how it adapts and evolves over time. I read a comments about patent holders coming to these Big Companies and presenting their idea so that they can license it to them. Most people only know what the end product is and the company that released it but know nothing about the patent holders who are behind the tech we love (or hate) LOL.
I hate how fanboys on either side love to stretch the facts..When Switch was first revealed we heard "ps4 and vita does the same thing" but Nintendo has been connecting handheld with console since GBA and Gamecube.. you could even say since super nes with super gameboy player. On the other end Sony developes tech as well .. the dualshock had the best rumble compared to n64 rumble pack and dual analog sticks ..Remote play as well(plus more but to keep the conversation simple). So wi...
Great comment... I've learned the hard way not to judge something until I try it..
it was the support... Vita is an awesome handheld
The Elder Scrolls Oblivion on 360 last gen was that game for me. It was immersive. My Favorite game on Xbox one is Rare Replay and that's old games LOL. I remember Seeing Ninja gaiden on OG Xbox and I was floored! I haven't had that feeling now.
Halo isn't the same without Bungie and it is getting stale. They need something that feels fresh and will trun heads. I will wait and see what they have at E3
Lets discuss why that is the case. XBox is one of the pioneers for Online gaming on Consoles. Halo was the best example of that. Last Gen was Halo, Gears, Forza, COD and Madden.. They lost a few exclusive Devs (Team Ninja {old boss loved Xbox}, BioWare and Bungie). So now they don't have much diversity. Variety in Genres and great Exclusives is how you lead the market and right now thats PS4. Microsoft isn't doing horrible its just they won't grow anymore than they have unless thi...
Coming from someone who has gamed since Atari.... It gets old hearing about who came out with what first..Its like saying my Daddy is better than your daddy.. what matters is; was the innovation used well and how it evolves over time. Nintendo may of had Rumble 1st but the Dualshock had the best rumble for a console at the time. Microsoft has gone a step farther with Impulse triggers and now Nintendo again with HD rumble. I am grateful for every companies' contributions to the evolution o...
Thanks for saving me a click lol
yeah those are solid choices. Sometimes we hear negative chatter "oh its a bunch of Indies" but these games on the list on this article don't feel like indies.. Snake Pass is from the same devs that brought us Sonic Racing Transformed... Fast RMX is like double the content of Fast Racing NEO (German Dev with major talent).
@below some people will say anything to defend their fandom. as for me I never did mind DLC , as long as the main game feels complete.. There are many examples of DLC (Season Passes as well) done right..(the WItcher 3, Mario Kart 8) then there are games that get released incomplete and the DLC makes it complete (Street Fighter V, Evolve)
weak console.... powerful handheld.. fun games (IMO) ...sold.. being in denile about specs is pointless but being a snob about it is just as pointless...
it is funny though because when I saw the specs of PS4 and XBox one at release I wasn't sold on that coming from having a decent running PC. But I was sold based on the games and how devs pushed the hardware.
@bathyj you are a rare breed.. many on here don't truly hear out other's views that differ from theirs. I appreciate the comment you made.
Exclusives are important and thats why i like PlayStation and Nintendo. Microsoft has been going downhill as of late. But exclusives used to be one of their strengths. (Mass Effect, jade empire, ninja gaiden, dead rising, DOA4, nfl gameday, jet set radio future etc.)
Yeah , its sad when people try to compare Switch and Wii U launches without using facts.. I remember Wii U launching with little fanfare at my local Gamestop. It was very humbling. I walked in (was a Sunday... who launches on a Sunday? Lol) and hardly anyone was there.. nothing like xbox360, wii , or ps3 (even with the high price it had a crowd)
