The transition should be no big deal so long as the next console is a hybrid that's backwards compatible. Malke all the specs better, improve the joycons, and bam. Easy transition. They don't need to reinvent the wheel again
@Would_you_kindly except it isn't crap performance at all. And why limit themselves like that when the switch has done so well? They'd have to be idiots to do that
@nitrolink 2 years definitely isn't "instant." I'd say giving it 2 years worth of game releases and holiday sales should definitely tell you if it's a success or not.
Why would anyone pay for games they don't actually own? Eventually that service will be shut down, and that's that. Not surprised it runs poorly either.
Got it day one back in 2002 (I was 12, wtf) and loved it. The train was obviously great, another mansion was fun again, I didn't mind the plot, and we got some great lore and back story. The lack of item chests was super annoying, but I have no ther complaints. Here's hoping Capcom remakes this one and Code Veronica at some point.
@Jokerwolf that's not obvious at all, lol. They said the switch was only halfway through its life a year ago. We have 3 more years at least before a new switch. Wouldn't make sense to release the successor that quickly after the OLED, especially when they're still selling well.
@Poodlestargenerica what? The switch is already more powerful than a ps3. And of course they can eventually make one more powerful than a ps4.....do you think technology stops advancing for some reason? I'm sure people thought we couldn't get 3ds graphics on a handheld smaller than a gameboy too, lol
@Captain-N yeah but the president of Nintendo said it was halfway through its lifespan only a year and a half ago. We have 3 more years at least. That's why all these articles and comments about getting something new confuse me.... they literally already told us how long we have.
@Soylentcuck Jesus Christ. You can't sacrifice a child that wasn't even conceived. I've seen a lot of awful people online attack others for some dumb crap, but you have to be the king of triggered butthurt attacking. Some people don't want kids, simple as that. It doesn't make them selfish, stupid, man children, irresponsible, or any other nonsense you incorrectly claimed. People like you are what's wrong with the world, and the exact type of person that shouldn't be breeding and teaching the next generation. Go take a nap or something.
@WoomyNNYes that's definitely something they need to do. If they want the next console to be even close to this successful, they'll need backwards compatibility. It would be even better if accessories like controllers, as well as digital downloads transfer over.
@Ogbert I didn't make anything up. I've seen how they were made, and how they changed up the design teams. They brought people on to capitalize on the popularity, and the designs suffered. They were considerably less picky about what made the cut.
@Dilly-Mick nah. A lot more work by a small group of devoted artists went into the first 151. After pokemon blew up, they brought in way more people and rushed everything to make as much money as possible as quickly as possible. That's why we've been getting so many more awful pokemon ever since. The ratio is way off. Same reason they over saturated the games with legendaries
Also known as, clearly a Rip off of animal crossing. Seriously, right down to the talking animal villagers? Won't be rewarding them for stealing, I'll stick with animal crossing.

@Not_Soos it's an anonymous survey. They wouldn't actually know YOUR income because it's just another piece of data related to your other questions.

Do you guys think all us gamers are just playing non stop while chugging energy drinks and getting fast food delivered?
Also that wrestling question was really random. Weird survey, lol

@Dilly-Mick never said everyone agrees with me. You shouldn't put words in people's mouths.
I've seen more primary sources that say exactly what I said. It's been talked about on Nintendolife in many articles in fact.

Re: Soapbox: Endless Zelda Remakes Are A Poor Substitute For Backwards Compatibility
@Effortlessgamer then don't buy digital. Physical copies make more sense anyway
