Re: Banjo-Kazooie Composer Explains Why He Thinks Another Game Is Unlikely

PALversusNTSC

i don't even know the guy, why would i follow him on X?

i happen to know and love banjo.

what is wrong with all these shortsighted executives nowadays. they lost all their vision and hooked in computer stats.
what a poor turd generation of leaders we have, so fk dumb.

i agree with him, that the lack of humor and enthousiasme in a team is very important.
but does he even know his team, he rather looks at twitter folowers to come to a verdict👎👎👎
very poor managment.

Re: Poll: Which Switch 2 Accessories Are You Picking Up At Launch?

PALversusNTSC

i'll will wait for 1 year before buying the nintendo switch 2.
want to be able to choose a game from a decent backlog just like i did with switch (bought in 2018)

thing i hate about buying frontrow, is that you buy games you actualy do not want to own, because of drought.
the changes are that you only spend money on ports and remakes.

Re: Fast Fusion's Switch 2 Performance And Resolution Detailed

PALversusNTSC

4k 1440p 60fps HDR is basicly how i prefer to play on ps5 on performance mode.
imo it should be the standard for gaming nowadays.

the 120fps 4k mode feels not realy like a big deal for me on ps5(it looks sick with racing games though) so the switch 2 has some great specs for how inthink most of us like to play games on consoles.

Re: Review: Donkey Kong (GB) - One Of The Game Boy's Very Best

PALversusNTSC

I can remember my older brother loved this game back in the nineties. i have try to play this game, but somehow i did not like konami Jrpgs. the graphics, music and setting somehow did not impress me.
still this game is kept mentioned by many jrpg fans in the last 30 years because of the fantastic story.
maybe i have more patience now then i was at 21 year old. i definetly gonna give it a try☺️

Re: Nintendo Switch Hardware Sales Pass 150 Million, With PS2's Record Still A Way Off

PALversusNTSC

@Corvus96

i would not stress about the record, because it is already broken. it is just sony and their pride for not to admit.(but for whom you think, nintendo does not care anyway)
beside this the console market was not that big back in 2011, hard to believe all brands together magage to pull 160 mil ps2+80 mil ps3+75mil xbox360 and 110 million wii's.
gaming was big but not like today.
i even believe ps2 sold only more like 132 mil in its lifespan.

we will pribably never know, but what we know is that sales are more transparent these days then back then because of shared sales technology. and former generations had less with gaming.

Re: Nintendo Switch 2 Reveal Trailer Gives First Official Look At The New Console

PALversusNTSC

@Teksette

we live in liv in a era where nextgen games are reaching 100gb data.
nintendo was mot even vapabale to push 64gb cardridges due to expenses.

how on on earth is this cardridge system future proof from start? do we have to buy 1 tb sd cards for digital downloads only.
are we also gonna be slaves to digital only also like on ps5 and xbox live. pay so much money because there are no other options.

i think in this concept switch duex (as you call it) is bound to fail in long term sales.

i told you guys, nintendo can't make a new console in this concept.
and i have been right so many times about sales figures the last 30 years.

exspectation 35 million consoles. simply because people are already fed up with the switch concept anno 2024

Re: After Sharing Switch 2 Images, Dbrand Is Back With Actual Measurements

PALversusNTSC

@ArcticEcho

this is what i stated.
although i speculate, i can't imagine someting considered as a nextgen thing in the concept of a hybrid console. too expensive, it gets too anti nintendo bulky.
i was more spuleculating some sort of more powerful console with the switch as streaming device. later on a new streaming handheld as aditional hardware, but first a new console.
basicly ps5/ps portal concept.
nintendo just need to target 4k, as the device has to outlast.

Re: Xbox Studio Rare Excited About The Return Of Banjo-Tooie Next Week

PALversusNTSC

rare just suffers from xbox type of gamer.
it does not belong to this platform.
not that the xbox gamer is to blame, i personaly think it suits ps or nintendo better.

still when you just leave youth sentiment and link any game from rare to nintendo, there where still great games made by rare.
nut n bolts was realy just awesome, but when it is not a banjo kazooie game, people stop playing it after an hour, wich is a real pity.

it is anyhow hard to make a good platform game wich inmidiatly hooks players, most have just lame caracters, microsoft should just ask rare to look at the fanbase, ask for their help. there is some pretty neat content been made last 2 decades.

Re: Round Up: The Previews Are In For Mario & Luigi: Brothership

PALversusNTSC

I am realy happy, nintendo finaly used some other graphic pallet. most games look so much the same graphic style. like the world arround mario was already created back in 2016 before swiitch launch. kinda make these games less apealing for me, this is my personal opinnion.
brothership has a total different style wich is great👍

Re: UK Charts: EA Sports FC 24 Stays On Top With Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Close Behind

PALversusNTSC

respect. nintendo software sales is still doing very well.

though what we need is christmas holiday bundles. switch oled+mario kart deluxe+ one month nintendo online for €250,-
also a nice looking box

same for Legend of zelda.

i honostly think it will crash any console sales during this season right before the release of new hardware.
i also think your old nintendo switch is going to be part of the new hardware structure somehow.

Re: Talking Point: Would $499 Be Too Much For 'Switch 2'?

PALversusNTSC

@Maubari

as for me concerned i feel sad but the brand is dying since 2014.
they made too many mistakes. one could have been overcome(target it as a multimedia machine) but they made alot of big mistakes.

i think gamepass and make their exclusives also for pc was a huge mistake.
gamepass is the same reason why sony is struggling with software sales, and this is what thrives the industry. then there is a digital console available and you have gamepass(what idiots)

nintendo does not share its exclusives, have hardware dedicated versions of games(well legal) and di not give games away for free and make their consumers spoiled therefor greedy to spend money, they also do not sell a digital only console.

Re: Talking Point: Would $499 Be Too Much For 'Switch 2'?

PALversusNTSC

why not just release a new model switch(or switch firmware update for oled model), capable of streaming new homeconsole hardware on the go via 5g or wifi hotspots. just like playstation portal.

i honostly do not believe we can have xbox one ps4 graphics on a slim hybrid. nintendo does not want to make a bulky hybrid for kids on the go. so why not do it sony's way but better.

nintendo has stated in 2019 it was ingestigating google stadia technology and game streaming.

thing is, you could still use all the nintendo switch library games, digital and physical cardridges + new powerfull hardware sitting at home, people would only have to but a console wich van be targeted for like 299,- with inbetween ps4/ps5 technology.

aaaaaand
switch will still sell and crush sony's record.

+you can play old switch library games
+you can play new hardware games at home and streamed on the go+
+more difficult to jailbreak because you have two security bridges
+nintendo can release a homeconsole for a consumer friendly price with specs between ps4 and ps5
+nintendo will keep selling switch oled
+acces to 12000 titles + upcomming new hardware titles.

-people with no switch have to buy both or focus only on either switch oled or new home console. but you have a choice.
-you have to play ps4-ps5 quality on 720p probably, or.....nintendo makes a new switch model.

Re: Talking Point: Would $499 Be Too Much For 'Switch 2'?

PALversusNTSC

@-wc-
not true the ps3 was more powerfull then xbox360, thing was the xbox360 was the main platform for developers.
the ps3 had to do with thirth partt 720p xbox360 ports. it was only visable with dedicated ps3 exclusives. well xbox360 was upscaled 1080p

when the last of us was released, it convinced consumers. destroying xbox360 sales figures, everybody jumped from 360 to ps3( we never see such massive platform jump again) still the best experience overall during both lifespan was most definetly the xbox360 but this is not relevant.

Re: Talking Point: Would $499 Be Too Much For 'Switch 2'?

PALversusNTSC

€375,- for the new model. pricecut old oled to 249,- arround christmass holidays.
a bundle with game(mario odyssey) and nintendo will break sony's 12 year old record.
they could easily add a game, they earned so much money with a.e mario kart, mario kart delux.

so the oled can sit next to the new hardware, and slowly be fased out.

Re: Nintendo Switch Sales Hit 143 Million As Hardware And Software Figures Decline

PALversusNTSC

@Pipulitoch
there is always a mayor price drop from nintendo. but the thing is, they always do this when a new console has arrived, and nobody cares about it. well not nobody, but not enough people to push millions of units, because nintendo does not offer the oled for cheap, they come up with some lame model.

Listen NINTENDO!!
make it happen arround christmas holidays starting at the end if november.
Oled 199,- bundle with a fantastic game(software has long be profitable enough). you earned so much money, make this bundle one to remember.
push marketing for this bundle as well

Re: As Switch Approaches The PS2's Lifetime Sales, Sony Moves The Goalposts

PALversusNTSC

nice try👍
not gave any official numbers , then when it is getting hot beneath their feet they all of a sudden pull a number.

it has been reseached for over 15 years and numbers might even be raised to sony's favour, what is next nintendo saying they already reached 160 mil? the number of sales have both been checked and nintendonis going to break this record sony, wheter you like it or not.
