Re: Tekken 8 On Switch 2 Would Be "A Lot Of Work", But Director Isn't Ruling It Out

@PikaPhantom Hence why I said efficiently. Games that use that engine on Switch 1 are either downgraded or are games that are simple enough that they don't use the engine to its fullest.

Now that we know Switch 2 is not as powerful as everyone expected, it may have trouble in performing on certain larger games that were not initially made for it. Tekken 8 with it's high fidelity graphics and other advanced tech, it could be problematic for the system. And being a fighting game, every framerate counts.

Yeah, I know about the whole Natsume localisation guffaw. Hence why every game after that year was donkey butt.

This collection really shows how lazy they are with pretty much just a port of two of their worst games with little effort and pretty much no new content added.

Terrible as in just plain bad. The original 3DS games already looked and felt like a generation behind. These are not remakes but just "enhanced" versions. If you take a look at the official screenshots, 99% of comments are negative, pretty much saying it looks like minecraft on N64 hardware, and practically no new content.

Story of Seasons aren't that great themselves with little innovation and recent trend of just remaking old titles, but at least they truly are remade from the ground up with added new features and content the originals never had. Even with the lack of innovation, it's pretty much a guarantee that you'll get a quality product.

Oh, wow. I haven't been up-to-date with the Melee side of Smash Bros for a while, but this is a big deal.

To the uninitiated, Mang0 IS a huge name in Smash Melee, literally one of the "5 Melee Gods" during the highest point of that game's competitive scene.

He's still an amazing player to this day, but he does get into trouble here and there. Given Mario Kart's family-friendly image, he should've put more restraint on himself.
