It was a small team and their output was pretty small. These kind of games will probably continue to be made within Square, and if anything their output should speed up because they will probably have a bigger team in a sense now.
The Tokyo RPG Factory name is gone, but not the soul, so I don't mind this to much. Heard their games were average, but they have an audience and I can't see Square completely abandoning that audience, even with how disorganized the company is.
The Sims running on a portable sounds simultaneously amazing and painful. Also the Sims 4 probably wouldn't run well on Switch.
I think a Sims game specifically for Switch would work better, or waiting for the next Nintendo console to shove their $50 add-ons down our throats.
@sanderev 1. Meta has nothing to do with this emulator. It's just being unofficially ported to their platform. Nintendo will not sue Meta, like how they won't sue Microsoft or Google Android.
2. I don't even think Nintendo can sue the actual emulator. Sure, they can prohibit them from being hosted on large storefronts like Steam, but them using Citra is unlikely at best.
3. Emulators aren't even bad, they help preserve games that would otherwise be lost to time if they weren't ported to other platforms. It's not like Nintendo's making much money from the 3DS anymore.
@Znake I have. Great game. Don't see how Prince of Persia and Dread having similar gameplay means that they're using the same engine, or that it's just a replica of Metroid Dread. That's like saying that Castlevania games are just copies of Metroid games because they're both Metroidvanias.
I don't even think MercurySteam, the developers of Dread, has a real reason to give Ubisoft their engine for their game. In fact, allegedly Persia is using Unity as it's engine (Surprised it's not Ubiart to be honest).
Everyone's freaking out about the rating of the game, yet I don't even think most parents know or care about the difference between "Everyone" and "Everyone 10+".
Of course Arkham Knight looks a bit rough, that game could barely run on PS4 and Xbox One, of course it's gonna look kinda ass running off a toaster.
Honestly, other than the Batmobile sections having piss frame rates, I'd consider this a technical marvel (or dc), especially for arguably one of the most beautiful games of last generation. Knight still looks pretty decent on Switch, all things considered. It's a really impressive port and I applaud the developers for not setting Switches ablaze worldwide.
People compare this to Roblox, yet Roblox is pretty unrestricted compared to this. They allow accessories, avatars, and clothing that could raise eyebrows and allow user to make questionable avatars in a game technically for all ages. There are also some gory or violent games on Roblox.
Meanwhile, Fortnite restricts a character with a gun in a game...about guns.
