Who is cautiously optimistic towards Nintendo? BotW and Spla

Bump, I want to know what you guys think

Reminder Sticker Star and Color Splash were both made by a new team of young people.

What will make or break the NX isn't its specs, it'll be the first party games. the fact that the Wii U didn't have an open 3D Mario, a Metroid, or a Zelda until its death really hurt it. I wouldn't shake two shits at its specs; it's not what you should be looking for when buying Nintendo consoles anyway.

Wait and see if the games it gets are good, then decide if you want to get it or not.

>>341985463
Nah, it was Tanabe
Who basically ruined everything

>>341985763
I have a feeling they are saving the goods for the NX
I mean, who wouldn't? No point in developing for a dead console

>>341985763

3D Mario has never sold as well as 2D and Metroid is a niche series. Zelda isn't really a normie series either. Most of the people who would have bought it already bought the WiiU for other things.

The only thing that really matters is if they can work with Japanese developers. There has been word of Nintendo talking to people over at Namco, Capcom, and SE (Nintendo has been shown to already have deep connections to all three companies). And it's been rumored that the big teams want out of the mobile market. And hope they can start to get Japanese players to buy consoles again. So if Nintendo can hook the Japanese again (Splatoon is right now the best selling console game over there) you might see more Japanese developers moving to Nintendo. That's really the only real way I can see Nintendo coming back. Since it's been shown that a only Nintendo game system has a limited market.

>>341984602
>around Xbone standards, which is good enough for both 3rd parties and the casual player. Full 1080p 60 Fps will be good too

How does this work when Xbox One has games at 900p with 30FPS?

>>341984602
>'we are not about the specs' statement is being grossly overreacted to
you're damn right there, there's too much shitflinging on either side going on. The statements mean absolutely, it's just PR talk.
This emotionalism in favour of considering the cold, hard facts needs to stop

Anyway, I really think Nintendo will hit it out of the park with the NX. I really get the feeling they understand what needs to be done. Their recent E3 showing is proof of that. The focus was Zelda, their new gem, and the trailer is about to become Nintendo's most watched video. The hype surrounding this game WILL be on OoT levels, enough to sell NX's at launch.

Combined with other NX titles that were obviously moved from Wii U to NX and we will have a strong launch going, exactly where the Wii U failed.

Will the NX outdo the competition? That's probably too much to ask for. But will it outdo the Wii U? Without a doubt, and more than doubly so.

>>341987432
>would be good too

Sorry if my wording was bad. I meant that that would be the best case scenario

>>341984602
>About the specs of the NX, I suspect it will be around Xbone standards, which is good enough for both 3rd parties and the casual player. Full 1080p 60 Fps will be good too.

You're suspicions are founded on NOTHING.

Also, if you were correct, it should be noted that most Xbone games can't achieve 1080p60, so how would a similarly specced underpowered piece of shit be able to?

Nintendo fucked us with the Wiimote gimmick.

Nintendo fucked us with the Gamepad gimmick.

Nintendo fucked us with underpowered hardware, leading to miserable 3rd party support.

Nintendo fucked us with region locking.

To answer your question, OP: No, I am not optimistic about whatever the fuck the NX is, because of the direction Nintendo have taken in teh recent past.

>>341985463
Its that cunt Tanabe. He ruined metroid and now paper mario

>>341985763

Nonsense.

None of those games are system sellers.

The reason the Wii U flopped is because the marketing was awful, and the casual market who bought 100 million Wiis thought the Wii U was just some sort of peripheral and not a new console.

Nintendo made their bed by pandering to casuals with the Wii fad.

Now they have to lie in it because fads die.

>>341988052
Yes, they just need to fucking advertise the NX

They need a catchy catchphrase like 'Wii would like to play' or something

I don't care who the fuck does stuff as long as Monoltih Soft's working on more vidya.

>>341988427
"This console stinks! "

Think Nintendo will hire me?

>>341984602
>traditional controller with scrolling shoulderbuttons
> slighty better than ps4
> not way too expensive
> zelda edition

cooooount me in!

>>341988427

Fads don't work second time round.

The NX will probably fail as hard as the Wii U if it's simply a new console.

Nintendo can't compete with Sony and MS on market share anymore and people are tired of their gimmicks. We'll have to wait and see what NX actually is before making a call on it, but I'm not optimistic.

What I want NX to be:
>powerful enough to compete with Neo/Scorpio
>3rd party support
>Entire Nintendo back catalogue (including Wii U)
>Traditional controller
>Traditional console

What we'll probably get:
>Underpowered shit
>some new gimmick
>No 3rd party support

>>341988898
>powerful enough to compete with Neo/Scorpio
I'm all ok with power but competing with TWO giant tech companies in the arms race?
That's a shitty idea.
It should be powerful enough to look presentable and able to have many things on screen(s) at once.
I'd rather have high depth of field with shit graphics (unpolished diamond) than shit depth of field with pop-ins with decent-at-best graphics (polished turd)
Because at the end of the day, none can beat a properly built PC on the same price range when it comes to graphics.

>>341989372
Scorpio is unbeatable now

>>341989372
>I'm all ok with power but competing with TWO giant tech companies in the arms race?
>That's a shitty idea.

It might be a shitty idea to you, but not competing or matching a standard being set by other companies means that third parties simply won't develop games for the underpowered console, like what happened with Wii U.

It's not a good thing to not have 3rd party support on your console.

So no, it's not a shitty idea.

>>341989772
By the time it comes out, it will have been outdated by a year and a half. The Scorpio's specs are high end (not even max end) TODAY.

They also didn't mention what the CPU will be. The PS4 would be singificantly more powerful if the shitty CPU wasn't bottlenecking it up the ass.

>>341987819
Nintendo's really good at making games look and perform really good despite shitty hardware. Mario Kart 8 is still one of the nicest looking games of this gen

Nintendo knows their consoles inside and out. And know how to squeeze as much power as they can. Unlike Sony who just threw in The Cell thinking how amazing it was but because no one understood the fucking thing no one could take advantage until are at the very end of it's life time.

Hell look at Mario Galaxy and Xenoblade on the Wii. Some of those games still look amazing.

>>341991394
S|A got confirmation that Nintendo ordered millions of new Tegra SoCs. They put the article behind a paywall. That isn't a rumor.
Nintendo themselves have in the past stated that NX is a platform which would run Android.

Its a Tegra powered Android tablet. This millions of shitposts that are guaranteed to follow the reveal will be one of the greatest things in this board's entire history.
The reason why Nintendo stated that the NX isn't replacing the WiiU is because it isn't. They're not releasing another home console.

>>341991708

They really haven't unless you got a source

>>341987329
>Capcom, and SE (Nintendo has been shown to already have deep connections to all three companies).
Gotta be careful with Capcom and SE. They used to fuck Nintendo over more than once.

>Namco
If things would have gone different, Nintendo would own them since they bought Monolith Soft.

>>341991149
Apple II?

Personally it's not really the power anyways. Nintendo has been show to be able to work great with the specs they set themselves. Maybe not resolution but in just art design and color which last gen lost. Personally a lot of Wii U games look just as good as PS4 games. But mostly because I hate the realistic look. We are reaching the uncanny valley and no amount of power right now will fix that.

>>341991708
This would be the worst

>>341991856
Get with the times. If you're this clueless then there is no point in spoon feeding you.

Cry, whine, and shitpost all you want. I'll screen cap your post to add to the enormous collage I'll be making. I've been thinking of catchy titles for it. So far "The Trillion Toddler Tears" is at top of the list.

>>341991913
>If things would have gone different, Nintendo would own them since they bought Monolith Soft.
Didn't the Japanese government stop the merger? Saying it would case Nintendo to basically own a massive chunk of both gaming and anime?

Capcom right now seem happy with Monster Hunter on 3DS. And if things keep working out I'm guessing MH5 will be on NX. As for SE Dragon Quest 11 was said to be thought of being porting to NX.

>>341992024
I don't know if this is some weird bait, but I don't give a shit if the NX runs fuckin Windows Mobile, I'm just telling you that they never said it would run Android.

I won't be buying one unless a Metroid game is announced and confirmed for it.

I love Metroid and I assumed that the Wii U would get a brand new Metroid game during it's life cycle. Would it be 2D and use the gamepad? Would it be a new Prime game with amazing modern graphics? I was so hyped, and here we are years later and they never even so much as acknowledge Metroid's existence. Fucking hate how hard I got burned on that one. Every other Nintendo console I purchased had a good Metroid title except Wii U.

Yes indeed. Bit weir´d that the government took it to heart.

Yes and I hope it continue since they unfucked themselve, but the last time big things for Nintendo were announced, RE4 ended up on PS2 and SE started to limit Nintendo on what to localize in the early 3DS/Wii(U) era.

>>341992650
Well we stop mergers too here in the US. Monopoly laws are there for a reason. I do wonder what it actually would be like if they did merge. Either way Monolith seem to be really happy with where they are and Nintendo seem happy with the sales they bring in.

As for those two it really just matters on if Nintendo can help win back Japanese gamers. Since they are what Japanese gaming companies are really worried about. With all of them abandoning everything but 3DS for their phone. I've just heard rumors of them wanting to win back the Japanese market again. Hence why SE is diving back into the console market in a big way while the past 10 years they have been more or less quiet outside of Eidos which SE has been having problems with them.

>>341992024

the catchy title has to do with something about modern nintendo and their arrogance.

And yes, not being a console would make sense "get one while you still can" sounds weird as fuck to me.

Which is ironic since SE was huge on mobile since the early 2ks.

>>341984602
Got more pessimistic about the NX, it will be the Wii U all over again when the Neo and Scoripio comes out. And when Reggie made that statement about it not being about power you just know it will be shit. Xbox and Sony both have power and can make good games too.

They are shit and they've been shit for years now.

How NX can win 2017:

There needs to be an NX Home and an NX Go. They share all of their software 100%

Zelda BOtW
Monster Hunter main series title
Splatoon 2
Mario Maker 2

All four of those need to come out in 2017 and all four need to be playable on both home console and handheld. Launch a HUGE marketing campaign for Splatoon 2 in Japan and make sure everyone and their grandmother knows you can splat on a handheld.

>>341984602

Can we stop with this "splatoon is good!" shit already? Its mediocre as hell. You play it for 2 hours and you have already seen EVERYTHING the game has to offer. Its another shallow neo-nintendo game. Seriously stop this shit.

I'm pretty sure the NX will be Nintendo's dreamcast.

>>341994717
The statement is taken wholly out of context by many

>>341994656
Then watch as the console one sells like shit.

Calling it now. NX will be roughly as strong as Xbone is currently.

NX will launch with Splatoon 2, Smash Wii U Port, Zelda, some Platinum exclusive, and some Retro studios game, most likely Donkey Kong. Dont forget the obligatory minigame collection.

It will come with the Nintendo Pro Controller and the "Stream" controller- which is basically a tablet with analog sticks. Stream is optional, but devs can make use of it. Allows you to access your NX remotely from anywhere and play your console games on the go. Stream has 32 GB of RAM and a Tegra processor, in addition to a sleep mode. It can load a whole game onto its RAM for you to play on the go, even without an internet connection!

>>341986835
I feel that. I think what they really needed at launch was big multiplayer stuff like Mario Kart, Smash, and Splatoon. If that stuff was at launch it would have been huge, since those games releases did cause a large impact on sales of Wii U, but because they didn't come until the Wii U had already existed for a year or two, it might have been too little, too late.

Nintendo is a total wild card in this situation. But really you need to look at what will work best for japan.
It took multiple generations of the DS to properly work with america in mind and most even big games didnt work as well until later. Nintendos market is japs so it will most likely be really cheap. It might be an expansion on the current system or at the very least be backwards compatible.

Whats the Gimmick going to be?
Just more power? New controller? Modular? OS? Mobile and console shared library?

>>341995190
you load the entire game onto the RAM of the stream controller while at your house and before you go out. As long as you dont fully turn the thing off (aka- use sleep mode) or let the battery die, you should be able to run it with the RAM and the Tegra processor. Obviously the render scaling will have to be toned down, and certain other graphical features and filters will have to be dropped for certain games, but it should work fine.

Who will take Nintendo's place when they leave the hardware market? Apple?

Nintendo's new system is going to be lower end, probably only around or slightly above the Xbone because it's designed to run the same games as their new handheld and having a SUPER HUGE power gap between the two platforms would just make more work for developers.

>>341996303

Then explain

As long as they actually market it, the gimmick isn't too intrusive/off putting and it's powerful enough to run multiplats so cucksole-only crowd have a reason to buy it then I see no reason why it wouldn't be a good buy.

The problem is the same problem Nintendo has always had - they release their console halfway into a cycle with specs on-par with the competition, but with the caveat of having nogaems. If you had to choose between the three, there's no way you would ever choose the Nintendo console because you don't get as much bang for your buck. Same thing happened to the Wii U.

They're chronically on catch-up. Worse, they miss a ton of releases that would otherwise be on every platform, the devs of which are now occupied on other projects so the ports will never come, or will take a long time to come.

Also, I'm never buying another Nintendo console again after seeing all that dumbing down and removal of vast swaths of content their 'localization' department does on a regular basis.

Keep in mind Carmack is not referring to a flat double performance, rather, it's if it's tailored to the platform.

Multiplats are never optimized and expect 1:1 (PC:console) or worse.

None of it makes sense. The only reason the Wii U even broke 10 million sales was because it released with zero competition.

See >>341998757

Nobody even knows what the fuck the NX is and it's less than 1 year from release. It's going to flop hard as fuck like every Nintendo console (outside of the outlier Wii) and it will flop even harder than the Wii U because it's actually going to have competition.

The Wii U released when the PS360 were at the end of their life cycles whereas the PS4/Xbox One (going by their "upgrades") are only half way through theirs (especially with the PS4s upcomming exclusive library).

Thinkings the NX will do better than the Scorpio/PS4 Neo is just a overly optimistic speculation from Nintencucks

>>341984602
>Full 1080p 60 Fps will be good too.

Except the Neo and Scorpio is supposed to work together with the PS4/Xbone, you will still play the same games with the dev ambitions.

What a waste of hardware.

I'm about this close to just hacking my Wii U with Loadliine

I dont play MK8 online anymore and its dying. Playing smash 4 with /v/ is stupid to since they all suck ass hair. Pokken was just fucking shit and all the nay sayers of it being dead got btfo since there are 0 discussion on it.

>>341998605
No, because a PS4 is region-free and probably has 5x the gaems the Nx, in both quality and number that the PS4 will ever have.

Not to say that I'd necessarily buy it anyway. More likely to pick up a Vita soonish to play my weeaboo games (and a few simpleish untranslated ones) because that has actually built a substantial weeb library.

If I am not wrong the NX releases in March, while the other guys get released in the holidays. The competition will be lessened by then

In fact, releasing it with competition will get more attention, with sales wars and whatnot

Now they just need to market it

-Cartridges put off developers
-Minidiscs wouldn't be a problem if developers were still using CDs
-Waggle wasn't a problem by itself, However a standard controller wasn't packed in with the console, which limited developers. CCPro happened because of MonHun3

The Wii filled the casual market and they've been on the decline ever since. Just look at your own figures.

If that's not a sorry sight then I don't know what is. The Wii U is shaping up to sell less than the fucking Gamecube and N64, it's a complete disaster. The Gameboy advance sold more than the 3DS.

Nobody even knows what the fuck it is and Nintendos Wii U wasn't even close to as competitive as the Xbox One this gen. I'm going by past performances and outside of the Wii, Microsoft has been Nintendo 2 out of the 3 Generations they had consoles.

Original Xbox outsold the Gamecube
Xbox One outsold the Wii U (despite releasing later)

Scorpio already has more buzz around it than the NX from what i've been seeing. Nobody even knows what the fuck the NX is.

Sony has never had a failure in consoles. Even that horrible PS3 start didn't kill it. Meanwhile Nintendo has had 6 generations, 5 of which were competitive and lost 4 of those. Of the 4 losses, they were in last place...4 times.

Guys. GUYS!

Wii U games remastered and decensored for NX!

>>341985763
But the specs will fucking make or break the system. Nintendo is under a lot of pressure here. If they decide to stick with their PowerPC architecture, they will retain backwards compatibility with Wii U, Wii, and GameCube games. The big downside is that they will lose a lot of third party support since all mainstream gaming platforms like PS4/Xbone/PC use a x86 architectures and porting games to PowerPC takes a lot longer and uses more money, combined with the fact that third party games usually sell worse than on Playstaion or Xbox, third party developers have very little incentive to port games or make them exclusive to Nintendos console.

If they do decide to use a x86 instruction set in NX similar to PS4/Xbone, porting games from those consoles including PC will be a lot easier and also the hardware potential can be better than what Nintendo is used to. The biggest problem for Nintendo though is that they will lose over a decades worth of native backwards compatibility. They can always use a software emulator like Xbone does for 360 games, but then the list of games for backwards compatibility support drops dramatically due to emulation issues. Games refusing to boot, audio desync issues, graphical glitches, etc.

Basically Nintendo has to decide whether they want to keep a niche audience or cater to a bigger audience.

Pretty much this

I will get a NX when it's cheap and has a good library of exclusives

I got my Wii U for 200$ with 5 games, I'm sure as hell i will do the same.

If i want to play multiplats, i will play them on PC.

If i want to play exclusive Japanese games, i will play them on PS4.

there are too many people just talking about specs.

graphics are already great enough. image quality is everything the next nintendo console needs.

diminishing returns in graphics are real. everything on ps4 and xbox looks the same, has the same color palette.

"cinematic" walking simulators are fucking shit, uncharted sucks. open world games are ok, but they are all the damn same and will forever stay the same.

fuck fifa games and cod. its the alsways the same shit. battlefield 1 is the same shit again.

fuck all of this. specs are already good. if nintendo nx has xbox one level of power - thats enough. developers just have to use this kind of power to actually make amahing looking games like mario kart 8, splatoon and bayonetta 2. little bit more color and unique artstyles and gameplay mechanics.

mario kart 8 just needs better image quality. its already 60fps. lack of anti aliasing sucks.

so stop this bullshit with specs. xbone one level of graphical power in the hand of nintendo EAD would be enough to wow people graphically, just like mario kart 8 did when it came out and that was programmed on waaay weaker hardware (wii u).

so fuck off you fucking graphic whores.

on internet forums, there are too many people who follow the console wars just like sports fans, without even playing games themselves. for those idiots the only measurment to compare consoles is "graphical power". jesus, it's not the 90s anymore. graphics look good enough across the board.

gimme great fun games with great fun and FRESH artsystles. thats the only thing thats important. current console tech is absolutely enough to deliver that. it's just up to the developers to do it.

so fuck the stupid teraflop discussion. it's fucking pointless.

The PSP sold exceptionally well. The DS had proportionally less of a lead over it than the PS4 does over the Xbone. Now if you compare the best selling 3DS game (X&Y, 14 million) to the best selling PSP game (Monster Hunter, 4 million) you see which would pull in the money

BOTW and some titles like Splatoon and Mario Maker have given this company a handful of positive perception the first time in like 6 fucking years

>>342000673
Nintendo could always pull a Sony and ductape Wii U's hardware inside the NX like how they included PS2's hardware inside early fat PS3's to achieve backwards compatibility.

The major downsides though are that the system will be bulkier and the price will be much higher.

Not to mention they'd also have to include a gamepad or at least something with a 2nd screen

It'd be a clusterfuck. As much as I hate the idea of the Wii-U's library being lost to time, the NX needs to be its own thing and move forward with the times.

Any association with the Wii-U will probably just hurt it

I'm so sorry Iwata

Why then? You realize September is a terrible time to announce anything? E3 should have been their time to announce the NX, they didn't have to give full details, even just a Skorpio-style reveal would have been better than nothing. There's barely any info released about the Skorpio and yet it has a lot of people talking.

>>342001267
If nintendo has been studying anything they will realize they can release Smash Bros 4 Remastered. Remastered versions of all the WiiU titles.
They could even do a nice package of NSMB U + Luigi U + Mario Maker.

>>341996971
they said WiiU's goal was gonna go after the Wii audience again, and they were right.

And they have been dead since the N64 era. Their irrelevance that is.

They really only need to do Sm4sh, MK8, and that bundle you mentioned. MAYBE Tropical Dong. Games like W101 and Bayonetta 2 are going to be lost like tears in rain unfortunately. In the case of Star Fox Zero, that's probably for the best.

Nintendo - When censorship makes pirating/emulating the ethical choice.

The fact that Zelda BotW doesn't use the Gamepad, and still makes you scroll through items to select what one you want to use, makes me believe the NX will actually have those scrolling shoulder wheels from the patent from a long time ago.
Could be quite interesting if they can get something like Bayo 3, now this time with the ability to switch weapons using those wheels.

>>342002117

>>341991707
You can if you do it when it's on page 10

>>341994656
They honestly cant win another generation until they can manage to have 2 interesting and good consoles to gain more followers. Even if the nx is perfect, I don't it will sell as well the ps4. At the most it will sell a good enough amount to show they have their shit together, but at the moment it doesn't sound like they do.

>>341999681
That's my plan, as much as I want the new Zelda I'm not going to buy a new console that lacks third party support.

All I want from the NX is

>no gimmicks
>be the ONLY Nintendo platform
>have decent specs so they can do something with it

I don't want Nintendo to spread out their games across two platforms anymore. I want them to bring everything they got to ONE solid device.

I want every Monster Hunter, Pokemon, Mario, Zelda, Pikmin, Mario Kart, Smash, Donkey Kong, Metroid etc. on the same damn platform.

Then we have way less droughts in games.

If Nintendo uses region lock on NX, it's over. They are so behind with the times.

>>342003234
Considering they merged their console and handheld divisions a while back and put them all in the same office, that seems likely

They can just keep selling the 3DS with its current library for 5 more years no problem

>>342000539
PS3 gave Sony a JUST amount of losses since the 7th gen

literally the Don Mattrick of Playstation consoles.

>wanting 3rd parties

PC + Nintendo basically covers all the games you need to play

>>342002945
I don't know ask PS4 owners. But apparently someone buys these things.
Still most likely it would be a combination of 1080p, all DLC available, + some sort of bonus to the game. The most viable easy options would be
MK8 with more characters and vehicle parts
Smash 4 with all stages from both WiiU and 3DS available.

Mario Maker with real luigi perhaps?

You know just small bonuses to entice people into rebuying games.

If it's only around Xbone level, that's pretty sad. It'll be like Wii U again where they advertised it to developers as being very easy to port Xbox360 games to. Coming in years late and then expecting third party down-ports is a really sad strategy.

>>342003374
yeah all the 12 people that actually import games instead of bitching on the internet about it will kill them for sure

Nintendo is good at optimization (smash 4 is 1080p 60fps) so as long as specs aren't absolute asshole, we shouldn't be too bad

>>341986835
>Zelda isn't really a normie series either.
Your joking right?

>>341995967
Well I've been waiting for the neo since the ps4's release. Never bought a current gen console cause if there was anything to be learned from last gen was that the slim or later versions are completely superior and more unlikely to die a month or 2 after using them.

Is that why multiplats run better on PS3/360 and Wind Waker HD (Gamecube game) is 1080p @ 30fps with dips?

Smash 4 is a fighting game. For all the nice backgrounds and everything, it's still just a few characters on screen in a contained area.

Pretty much everything but Nintendo. Mostly Master Race though.

not developed by Nintendo. pretty much every Nintendo dev goes through a shit ton of optimization for the shit console

probably just too much for the GameCube I guess. also a shit ton is happening in that scene specifically
>>342004009
yeah you are right, but as long as the games aiming for 60 can hit a constant 60, it's pretty good. mk8 is 720p 60fps iirc but I don't really mind

>>342004369

At least they weren't censored tho.

>>342004406

I don't play CAWADOOTY, any uncharted or anything made by EA so no.

>>341999273
I can say theres tons of 3ds games worth importing that havent come here yet

I'm expecting the controller to be something like

Nope.

hasnt nintendo said they arent competing with sony or MS?

Either did the Wii and that was generally agreed to have worked out well for them

but every Smash is a popular

i like "character action game" better than niche "1v1 action game" (aka "fighting games" in general)

Which is why they will NEVER find sustainable success with the core and hardcore crowds

>>342000464
There had better be a fucking Xeno X port on the NX

>>342004931

Why would you want Censored-X?

>>341984602
I'm expecting NX to be Nintendo's Dreamcast.
Good console with a decent library but past mistakes and piracy will ultimately kill it.

>>342004754
Yep. Not competing is why they're getting fucked hard

>popularize console gaming
Sony fuck a them
>popularize mobile gaming

Nintendo constantly reaching for their blue ocean is retarded, and rarely works nowadays

Technically it is the specs that will make it or break it, not that I give that much of a shit about graphics as long as it's done well and fits the game, but, nor do I necessarily think the game will be worse off for it.

But when it comes to sales, we've just got to face the fact that a large number of people are graphic whores that care more about pre-rendered clips than gameplay. I mean fuck, just look at E3.

I can enjoy Prerendered trailers and such too, but what convinces people to buy games a lot of the time nowadays is graphics, cutscenes and pre-rendered stuff. I do think though that it would be enough if NX was as powerful as PS4 or beyond that, we've started to see a stagnation when it comes to graphics.

>>342005151
Not financially, but Dreamcast was actually selling okay. It just wasn't anywhere near enough to save Sega's hardware division.

Nintendo is sort of reversed. They are finding ways to keep the revenue stable and the costs down, but they are losing a war of attrition in market share. It may get to a point where they don't see any reason to release a home console, not because they can't afford to, but because the potential return would be inconsequential.

>>342005312
Not to mention that was nearly 20 years ago when the video game market was much smaller.

I doubt they would do that since Monolith Soft is working on their next project. I'd rather have a sequel than a port.

>>342005312
the dreamcast wasn't a bad system, it only died because sega went full retard before they released it

i don't see how people are still comparing the situations, nintendo and sega aren't similar at all

>>342005151
Sega lost a lot of third party support to Sony, Nintendo is suffering the same thing right now. Sega decided to use hardware for Saturn that third party developers hated, Nintendo is doing the same thing with Wii U and PowerPC.

>>342005506
>when the video game market was much smaller
Talking only about dedicated game consoles, the sixth generation was quite a bit bigger than this one is shaping up to be.

>>342005172

>Bayo 2 is 60 hours

>>342005479
>I do think though that it would be enough if NX was as powerful as PS4
That's the bare minimum I want but I have little faith in Nintendo to do even that.

Would a console with the same specs as a PS4 be that difficult to make and sell?

>>342004995
Yeah. Why would you want No Boob Settings X HD Edition?

>>341985763
This, what people are forgetting is the awful drought at the release of the Wii U console. This window was supposed to be filled with 3rd party games but then they bailed on their plans and only delivered broken ports and other garbage.

I'm hoping Nintendo says fuck you to third parties who are afraid of "competing" with them by releasing their game in the same month as a big Nintendo game.

>>342005558
>it only died because sega went full retard before they released it

I'm sure the GREATEST SELLING CONSOLE OF ALL TIME coming out a year after the DC had something to do with it...

>>342005312
It sold so well because of piracy. Software sales weren't as hot and one factor Dreamcast failed.

>>342004931
I'll be the single WiiU owner to say that I didn't like Xeno X

The biggest reason was the shitty combat. Second, minor reason was the fucking awful music especially in New LA

But yeah I just couldn't get into it, even though I truly tried.
And I usually lap up any game like that

>>342005662
AMD is releasing an RX 460 card that's around ~2 TFLOPS and will probably hit retail for $99 and use <75W. If Nintendo can't be assed to go for even something like that, then they really ought to get the fuck out of hardware business.

>>342005662
Probably not, I imagine that the parts to get equal amounts of power to PS4 is fairly cheap by now and the recent strategy of Nintendo has been to try and make a fairly cheap console, both for themselves and for the consumer.

In the end, it depends on what they are going for. If they really want to gain new consumers again, they would need to make something powerful.

But at the same time it'd be a very risky move since Nintendo already has a reputation and even if they had a very powerful console, you'd risk having graphic whores ignore it anyway "'Cause kiddie console" and distancing yourself from the established consumer based which are already used to the cheap price of new Nintendo consoles.

Or that's how I see it at least.

>>342005506
The console market was much larger then, what are you on about?

Nintendo has learned ABSOLUTELY NOTHING from the Wii U.

I have lost any optimism I had about the NX.

>We made a console no one gave a shit about with no games and a really retarded Game Pad gimmick. Keep buying the Wii U though, the NX will be supported alongside the Wii U platform.

>What? It's only sold 12 million? Near the same amount as the Dreamcast and it's had 3 years when the Dreamcast only had 2 years?

>NO, LOL... BUY A WII U. WE GONNA KEEPE SUPPORTIN IT

Pretending something isn't fucking dead is Nintendo's worst problem. They had a hit with the Wii after lackluster showings from the N64 and GameCube and they went right back to their bullshit.

When should we expect the earliest reveal? October?

>>342006290
I dream of a Smash Bros for NX being like an Official Project for 4U with loads of extra content and shit

>>342006324
The Wii U has sold 12 million consoles. At this point, even talking about is just damaging their reputation even more. The system is totally fucking failed. I think it may have pulled a very small profit for them, but honestly, if Nintendo wasn't fiscally conservative and the Wii hadn't sold 100 million consoles, Nintendo would be fucking dead right now. They were dying after GameCube. The literally crashed and burned and the Wii was their saving grace. The Wii U has put them in a worse position than they were with the GameCube.

Nintendo's final hour is at hand and championing a failed console is not doing them any fucking favors. They fucked up, big time.

Maybe Splatoon if for some reason they aren't ready to do Splatoon 2 yet.

I won't know until I can emulate a translated hack smoothly. At the current rate of progress it should only be about another 9 months or so.

But what about all the religious censorship?

>>342006541
>Super Mario Maker port with new content

say it is now "Super Wario Maker" which included more than just Mario being like Warioware DIY and it is bundled with NX

>>342006290
Splatoon with all DLC content and hyping up for Spla2n: Splat Harder

I'd love to see Bayonetta/2.

Also I expect Kong Dong Cuntry Returneth 3: Electric Bananarama with DKCR 1 & 2 in a Konkey Dong Country Returns: Expanded Trilogy Edition.

>>342006826
Which religious censorhsip?
There are many quests that deal with gods, including one where one girl is being manipulated by a Definian into believing she's talking to God itself, and ends up killing a bunch of Manon that way.
Unless you're just one of those shitposters who believe changing Testament to Reclaimers means the story was butchered.

>>342006674
First of all: No

Second: Nintendo isn't developing Smash

>>342006290

I don't see why they would port any

The games weren't good enough to make people buy a WiiU, why would they buy an NX for games that weren't good enough the last time?
