@Orwellian87 there is a difference between creating art and consuming art. miyamoto knows that when creating art there is no space for pretentious thinking.
Japan/EU conveys better what the game is about. the covers conveys pretty well that is an on rails shooter with the broken glass. is not a typical adventure game.
@Oracles_fanboi dude, how can you say I'm objectively wrong when we are both trying to see into the future, we still don't know what will happen. I could be wrong and I see your point, but tbh the vibes feel different for me this time and I see Nintendo situation as more favorable. also 360 was on it's way out in 2013, how can you not remember that. the point is that I could be wrong you could be wrong, it doesn't matter but if it makes you feel better then yes Nintendo is greedy and the tariffs in the US will def hurt switch 2 sales a lot.
@Oracles_fanboi when comunicating in that scale, yes it matters. but also it is not the same situation, xbox 360 was obviously on the way out, microsoft was abandoning that platform, Nintendo on the other hand has a system that it is still selling,and it will continue to be relevant for at least 2-3 more years. technology has platoed nowadays compared to the 360 era. "old" technology like the switch is not obsolete yet, it is still being supported by indies at will remained to be supported.
it is not the same thing. mattrick comment is condescending, bowser's comment is inclusive as in it is not disciminating switch 1 users. as simple as that. people are going to doom bait the whole switch 2 pricing for it's whole life
the thing no one talks about is that there are people like me that mostly play nintendo games. so I basically go with the Nintendo catalogue and I don't spend on other platforms as much. so while 80 for the game is high, I won't be spending for games until the next big Nintendo game comes out. so in that sense the cost of what I paid gets lost
@marktehshark69 bloom is such a minor thing, it is a terciary embellishment, the contrast in light and shadows is beautiful in the HD version, not to mention the colors that are enhanced beautifully
the ps2 was 13 years in the market. og switch can still be sold for a long time still as a cheaper option. I don't know why people don't see this. when ps3 launched in 2006 ps2 had sold 135 million. switch can squeeze a lot more sales easily.
numbered iterations are the only option going forward. if it was super switch... what is beyond super switch? ultra switch? it is very limiting. with switch 2 they can keep iterating just like playstation. also games cost so much now, they can't afford something like the WiiU
it all comes back to Gameboy vs gamegear. price beats graphics. and normies buy mainstream things. we as the degenerates that we are, we know about the lenovos and steam decks, your 10 year old nephew doesn't.
