Rabelais D posted:Yes, and you seem to be suggesting that Nintendo just stop making hardware with the OG Switch for some reason? thats right. saying it shouldnt be replaced 4 years after it launched is the same as saying it should never be replaced. pointing outu a mid gen refresh would probably have to be pretty modest is also that somehow. you def understand whats going on, and can read American McGay posted:Blame the devs dude.

multijoe posted:Nintendo have historically released a new mainline console every five years and the Switch is now four years old. I get a revision may not be possible with the transistor shortage and whatnot but the people insisting it's not a clearly aging console are just being obstinate at this point historically they havnt. the consoels they replaced in 4-5 years didnt sell well, where as stuff like the wii or the ds or the 3ds were out for 6-7 years before being replaced. Tender Bender posted:I agree games can look great on Switch but even games on this page that are listed as examples of how to do it right like Mario Odyssey and MH Rise run below 1080p on it. It's not just an optimization problem. Breath of the Wild was a premiere in-house launch title and wasn't able to do it. who cares. the focus is clearly on making hardware that is cheap and works well for a handheld system. the focus is not on resolution. this has apparently worked insanely well given that its already outsold everything theyve ever made that isnt the ds, gb or wii. most people dont care about it not hitting 1080p as much as it being reasonably priced and having good games. mario odyssey and mh rise look and play amazing lmao Butterfly Valley posted:There's no chance in hell we're going to see any more games of the calibre of Witcher 3 or Doom Eternal now that development has mainly switched over to the new generation of consoles. That's entirely a hardware limitation. why should the console everyone buys to be portable and play nintendo games be focused around the games people dont buy on it instead

Pablo Nergigante posted:I mean I've been playing Nocturne HD and the fact that a port of a nearly 20 year old game drops to a single digit framerate on occasion is pretty silly thats not the switch though. ive been playing it on my pc and ive had the fps dip like that lol the port is just... not very well made Tender Bender posted:Like we're not on Nintendo's board no one here is going to actually make any changes, you don't need to position other posters as straw men to win this argument that affects nothing. It's not saying "I think games should be graphics first and I don't care about the fine gameplay quality at Nintendo" to say you'd like to buy a Switch that's less obsolete so games can look a little better. no but you are going to endlessly complain which is even worse

Butterfly Valley posted:There's a lot to unpick here but you're demonstrating a total lack of understanding of what makes Witcher 3 and Doom Eternal great games, and the fact that they were able to be ported over to the Switch at all indicates that the core experience of those games is still high quality enough that it could survive the transition to significantly slower hardware. They've sold well and been enjoyed by many people on the Switch and there certainly exists that market for people who want to have those kind of experiences on a portable platform. lmao insanely funny to go "well the official sales show the ports didnt sell well. however i bought them. therefore:" Science_enthusiast posted:Thanks for identifying my problem my mistake. Didnt Nintendo officially say that they consider it to be mid lifecycle late last year https://www.vg247.com/2020/12/21/nintendo-switch-halfway-life-cycle/ please dontn use things like facts. the 4 year old switch is dead in the water and reggie must make switch 2 NOW

Foul Fowl posted:i don't think that's true but who knows. either way, replace gta 5 with any major release that touts its graphics as a main selling point. the ps5 is out of stock until 2025 for a reason. it's because people want to play really nice looking games. which part??? it came out in 2013, 4 years before the switch. the ps5 is out of stock bcos of a chip shortage that doesnt impact the switch as heavily because its old soc is much easier to producec and more foundrys are capable of pumping them out. by that logic the switch should never have sold any units because the ps4 pro, xbonx and pc could already run things better than it when it launched. mayhaps its a different product, fufilling a different use case, and thats why it does well.

Butterfly Valley posted:How many physical games do you own vs digital? what evidence do you have that they sold well given that the fervor for making the ports dried up immediately. the only sales figures we have show they didnt do as well as would be expected from big name titles, and the absence of more ports even of titles from the same gen as the witcher 3 would seem to indicate there was not enough demand to warrant bigger devs pushing more titles over. however on the other hand, you bought them therefore itss impossible to work out whats going on. if "guy who cant shut up about how the switch is weak" bought them then they must have done well.

Foul Fowl posted:i don't think the switch could run gta 5 that well but idk and that wasn't the point i was making, the point is that people really care about good graphics. good graphics are not mutually exclusive with the switch being handheld. if they made a switch with really good graphics they would probably sell a shitload of them. even though some people in this thread don't care about it. the switch sold out at launch, and then a second time at the start of the pandemic. therefore no one cares about graphics and the ps5 and series x should switch to arm socs and become portable

Butterfly Valley posted:I don't own Doom Eternal nor Witcher 3 on the Switch and I was mainly talking about indie multiplatforms of which I have many digitally downloaded. I'm going to pre-empt whatever 'aha!' you think this is and say it isn't and you need drastically better reading comprehension. I don't think the lack of Witcher 4 or Doom Whatever on the Switch will in and of itself doom the Switch to irrelevance. My argument is that the runaway success of the Switch is in part based on the much better support it's had from 3rd party developers compared to previous console generations, and now that the other manufacturers have advanced their hardware, that support will start to dry up unless Nintendo advances their hardware to a level that still allows for indie developers to port over their titles without having to devote more development time and resources than they think is worth it. i dont onw these games, however i will keep yelling about them in the thread where everyone wants me to shut up
