Re: Nintendo's Investor Q&A Promises Switch Isn't Dead After Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom

Ravenmaster

The current Switch may not die after TotK is released but in all honesty, it should. Nintendo would be much better off if they had a console that could do 4K 60fps with 2x anti-aliasing and is backwards compatible with current Switch cartridges. A modern SoC that supports DLSS could make that a reality. They need a console that can run at smooth frames rates when paired with a modern day 4K TV.

Re: Nintendo Wins "Switch Joy-Con Drift" Class Action Lawsuit

Ravenmaster

Thing is though, Nintendo wouldn't need to have a free repair route for their joycons if they improved the design so that stick drift no longer occurrs. I've had every Nintendo home console to date as well as several handhelds and the Switch seems to be the only one with large numbers of stick drift. They're clearly doing something wrong in the engineering department.

Re: Random: Masahiro Sakurai Says He Prefers To Buy Video Games Digitally

Ravenmaster

As PC gamer primarily, I prefer to purchase my games digitally. But that's because they're kept in my Steam library and every time I upgrade my PC I can still take my library over to the new hardware.

Unfortunately with Nintendo, they have a horrible habit of NOT letting you port your titles over to the next console. So many of my favourite Nintendo games are still trapped on useless relics like the Wii U. No Switch versions of Wind Waker HD or Twilight Princess HD. No Gamecube Mario Kart Double Dash or Eternal Darkness on my Switch. Nintendo are their own worst enemy in that respect because it drives fans to emulators.

Re: Talking Point: What Did You Think Of The Latest Nintendo Direct?

Ravenmaster

Zelda TOTK and Goldeneye were the only highlights in this Direct for me. The rest I just glazed right over. So I was pleased we got those 2 games but really bummed out that there was absolutely no mention of Winder Waker HD, Twilight Princess HD or Metroid Prime HD. I would've loved to have been able to play at least one of those to tide me over until TOTK releases in May next year.

Re: Poll: So, How Are You Pronouncing Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom?

Ravenmaster

I'm guessing its tears as in 'crying tears' because the kingdom has been devastated and mostly destroyed. Also Link seems to be using tear drops to travel up through solid land. The tears that the title is refering to might be Hylia's tears which may somehow be used to purify the land below of Ganon's malice.
