To people that say the Switch's first year lineup is bad,

>>378039885
this image literally contains the ONLY games worth owning on the switch for its first year. If five games for a whole year is good enough for you that fine but its not for everyone.

>>378040442
It's better than none, like all of 8th gen.

Every Nintendo console other than the Wii U.

>>378040442
>FIVE GAEMS!

>>378039885
Also consider Sonic Mania and Puyo Puyo Tetris.

It's difficult to compare to the other eight-gen offerings because they've been out for so long, and (not Xbox) have managed to amass some really solid titles. Not fair to compare PC here, since it doesn't really operate under the "first year lineup" clause, but let's be honest. Comparing Switch's first year to PS4's first year lies on what you personally value. I think Switch has made much stronger games in its first year than nearly any Nintendo system had beforehand (maybe SNES?), but PS4 had a much smoother launch, with no real hardware hiccups and giving its fanbase exactly what it wanted.

The nihilist part of me wants to say that all launch line ups are subjective and the best one is literally whatever your favorite was, but it is noteworthy to sow just how many first party titles have been made for Switch in such a short amount of time. (MK8 Deluxe is a port, but still.)

>>378039885

>only 1 new IP

B-BUT NINTENDO DOESN'T REHASH LOL

>splatoon 2 is literally an expansion pack for full price

HAHAHAHAHAHAH

>>378044207
PS4 and Xbone had a pretty lackluster first year, they launched with the usual Call of Duty, FIFA, AssCreed and other multiplats that were also on the last-gen consoles, they had very little in the way of good exclusives.

>>378040442
Snipperclips though

So this is the power of Switch.

Why does everyone point to Zelda and MK8D? that's like pointing to The Last of Us Remastered and The Master Chief Collection and bragging about new games.

>>378044323
SF, Dissidia Duodecim, and Theatrhythm say hi.

And Last of Us got ported within a year with next to no differences in content.

>>378044323
Are you implying I was dumb enough to buy a Wii U? First time for me hope we get every good game from Wii U's library.

3 ports, a motion control tech demo, and a legit mario game.

>>378039885
>PS4, Xbone and Wii U's were way worse

That's not saying much, all of them had notoriously bad launches. Consoles having shitty launch libraries has unfortunately become an industry standard, because manufacturers know that with enough hype, idiotic consumers will buy them anyways. Anyone with a lick of sense knows to wait until actual good games come out.

Pictured: actual Switch's first year lineup. Since when are non-exclusive games part of the console lineup? Might as well include FIFA at that point

>>378039885
Counting Zelda and MK8 port is being dishonest. Splatoon and Odyssey alone are enough to sell the console to anyone with taste though so I'm not sure why you would have to.

>>378045213
It's essentially a port. They worked on it for like 5 years on the WiiU before it was decided that they needed to port it to boost the switch sales.

>>378045213
But you don't need to buy a Switch to play Zelda if you already have a Wii U. So if you already have a Wii U, the only new games coming out this year are Arms and Mario Odyssey.

>>378039885

>>378045486
What do you mean nothing at all? Those aren't launch games for Switch, they're year 1 games. PS4 had more than Knack 1 year after release.

>>378044997
Last of us is more like mario kart than splatoon 2. Both being ports from previous gens. Dissidia 2 was shit and it wasnt ok then either

The lineup is bad because none of the games look good. That's just me tho. Evidently I'm not the target market, and that's OK.

Yeah, it got a second Call of Duty, AssCreed and FIFA. Oh and Infamous 3, can't forget that all-time classic!

They had multiplats, most of which were also on the last-gen consoles, but were sorely lacking in good exclusives.

>>378045376
Compared to Killzone, Driveclub, Infamous, LittleBigPlanet 3 and Knack in PS4's first year. Both are pretty shit I guess, it depends on where they go from here.

>>378040442
As opposed to the PS4's one on its launch year?

>>378039885
If you didn't have a wii u, it's pretty good. But everyone on who likes to play games got a wii u. Zelda BotW was on wii u. Splatoon 2 is just more splatoon, but now you pay for online, that being said, splatoon 1 wasn't worth $60 by itself, but was worth it because of how it trickled out content and updates for a good year or so. Mario Kart 8 was on the wii u. That being said, the lineup is solid for newcomers who didn't get a wii u. under their launch line up, Splatoon HAS to come out for there summer quarter as it still has a huge market with kids. I'm personally not sicked for Arms because 60 bucks, but for a lot of people they seem okay with that, so it's fine. I guess. I feel like to a lot of people, Mario Odyssey is the first big reason to actually get a Switch, and I'm pretty sure Nintendo knows that. There marketing strategy so far is 8/10. I think it's really good. Just sucks because I'm clearly not the set demographic right now.

>>378046267>>378046174
>this shilling
Come on guys, this is silly.

>>378044745
Yes it is, but most of us bought it 2 years ago on the ps4

>>378039885
It doesn't matte how lackluster the other console's first year was. Nintendo decided to release their console this late in the generation so they have to compete with libraries that have been established for years. Comparing the PS4 and Xbone launch titles to the Switch is completely pointless.

Also, I'm sure its already been mentioned but Zelda and Mario Kart are multiplats, they don't belong on that list.

>>378039885
Two of those are Wii U games.

Dude, wake up. PS4 had Bloodborne and that was it, for like a solid 2 years. The PS4 was Not worth getting until recently. Sony fuckin knew this and were hard pressed to push out anything worth while. There are totally games worth getting on the ps4 NOW. right now I have like 14 gaems and still nothing from what came out in January February except for like 2 games. Pre 2017, ps4 had no games. The meme stopped being a thing after around, meh, December-January.

>>378046835
>It will get delayed
Unless the building they're working in burns down in what, the next two months? Then it's going to release this year.

Not that guy, but I'm still holding out that they'll be releasing something say like 2 other games, Rabbids not being one of them, not denying it exists, it's just that I doubt that Nintendo would slice out there release schedule for a pretty much purely Ubisoft development aside from probably just some contracting and checkup.

>>378046835
>mario rabbids
This is confirmed to be August/September.

October will be something announced at E3 like Pokemon or the Zelda DLC as well as third party ports, FE Warriors could also come out in October.

Xenoblade getting delayed is a 50/50 and based mostly on the localization.
Development of X finished in early 2015 so Xenoblade 2 will have been in the works for over 2.5 years come December.

It will come out in December like X did or they'll push it to March as there's definately going to be a Mario and Sonic Winter Olympics game in February provided they didn't cancel the series (2016 sold 500k on PiiU and 700k on 3DS so it could have been cancelled).

>>378047247

>>378047247
>this makes me extremely sad because the chances of this happening is pretty high.
I'd say it's fairly low for Smash and HW to get ports especially HW seeing as FE Warriors is happening.
Mario Maker doesn't work on the Switch at all because it's not dual screen and it's not the same kind of touchscreen as the DS and Wii U, the name of it escapes me.

Pokken is the only other one that could happen because they haven't released the additional characters on the Wii U version.

>>378047000

Around 50, if you go by numbers. I have Zelda, Mario Kart, gonna buy D5 so that's 3. Plus ARMS stress test this week. The launch year for Switch is awesome no matter how much /v/ shitposts about it. It's not as great if you had a wii u but I never owned one. I think Nintendo timed releases really well.

>>378047740
They could also use the gyro controls as a pointer for Mario Maker. It supposedly worked very well for World of Goo.

>>378047509
Seriously, woahes me, I bought a wii u needs to stop. If it puts a larger library on their consol, then good. Nintendo isn't going to shove them everywhere, I think. Smartest thing they can do is put them out after a big release, say, Odyssey in Nov, port in Dec. Like they did with BotW.

Nah, normal casual gamers make up a majority of the sales. People are looking for the best platform to play the big AAA multiplat titles like batman, assassin's creed, battlefield, gta, cod, fifa, etc. xxhardcoreXXxx gamers such as ourselves xD do not even make up a tiny portion of software sales. If Uncharted's sales compared to bloodborne's sales on the PS4 wasn't a good enough recent example for you, then you've been on the internet too long and have seen relatively unpopular opinions so much that you think it's the majority. Exclusives do not move consoles. The xbone doesn't have even 1 title that /v/ even considers worthwhile of flaseflagging and shit posting and yet it sells well enough

But exclusives are literally the only reason to own a console. You don't argue based on how many multiplats it has, that's what a PC is for. But to answer your question I'm already playing like 5 games for the Switch.

>>378039885
Its more considering average Nintendo lifetime libraries, to which this is more simply because of ports. We already know Nintendo development is slow as fuck and even less third parties are on board. PS4 had a ton of ports too first year, they didnt seem to count though.

>>378048339

It's resistive (3DS/Wii U gamepad) and capacitive (Switch).

Why are you still trying to push the "Splatoon is a port XD" meme when it's as much of a new game as any direct sequel?

>>378050570
>Splatoon is a mission/expansion pack
What exactly is the difference between a sequel and an expansion pack to you?
Because it seems you think the two terms are interchangeable.

>>378050418
>>378050441

Bloodborne
Nioh
Horizon (you can meme this one if you want)
Let It Die

Thats 4. Do you want me to list more? I feel like that is sufficient to prove my point that the Switch doesn't have as many games, which honestly doesn't even need proving. You can call these games shit all you want but you would just be flat out wrong.

>>378050451
My point is that people use the term cinematic to completely dismiss a video game as total shit without having played it at all. Sure TLoU is a very cinematic game, but that doesn't make it bad in the least. It has very solid gameplay, story, visuals, and multiplayer.

>>378050858
>It took PS4 almost 4 years to get 17 full-retail exclusive games

Really makes you think.

>>378050858
>Do you want me to list more?
You certainly aren't proving your point here so go ahead. I mean, you can only list one freemium game, two souls like games and one of the worst open world games to date.

>>378050968
I don't care about cinematic games. Of course, it's mostly because they suck ass but still. I could just watch youtube and get the same experience in the end.

The Switch is literally a repackaged Wii U, except it can't play Wii U or Wii games, and it really doesn't have any games on it right now other than Wii U games. And I'm assuming most people who went out and bought one already have a Wii U. I really don't understand the hype surrounding it. And its not like I'm anti-Nintendo, I have a Wii U as well as a PS4 and gaming PC.

I feel like this is one of those emperor has no clothes situations. Am I the only person not taking crazy pills?

>>378050968
It does make it bad, it does not have very solid gameplay, that's the fucking point. The gameplay is constrained by the narrative and inherent structure of the game.

Games can do more than replicate the experience of watching a film, more than present the player with a narrative in which they are little more than an observer rather than a variable. The strength of a video game comes from its interactivity and player agency, not from having highly detailed visuals and voice acting. As far as these kinds of games go, TLOU is a well-made one, but when examined on its own merits as a game its not a very good one.

>>378050986
Here, >>378046476 this is my original post.

My point is the switch isn't competing with the PS4's launch lineup. It is competing with PS4's lineup TODAY.

As of TODAY, not 4 fucking years ago, there is absolutely no reason to buy a switch over a PS4. Especially if you own a Wii U. Why is that so fucking hard to understand?

That's because cinematic games have always been games that slap a boring and generic story on to basic games and present it as something groundbreaking.

I think the only "cinematic" game that at the very least tried to do it correctly was Star Fox and look how that turn out?

>>378051178
>can't play wii u games

????

>>378051271
Have you played the game?

Have you interacted with the environments within the game to make gameplay happen?

This is exactly what I am talking about dude. You dismiss everything in the game because it is cinematic. If you have actually played it you would know that there is a lot of interaction with level environments that alters the way you can play.

It is a very solid video game all around.

>>378051449

But the PS4 is a piece of shit, it's an underpowered console that doesn't compare to its predecessors, including the PS3. There's absolutely no reason to buy such outdated hardware in 2017 when its games are just going to get remasters on the PS5.

I doubt there are many nintendo faggots in this board that have played games like Uncharted, TLOU, RDR, etc.

They usually stick to games released on Nintendo hardware and maybe PC but thats about it.

>>378051309
>My point is the switch isn't competing with the PS4's launch lineup. It is competing with PS4's lineup TODAY.
And its doing just fine so far, it's still sold out and the software is selling well.

If you want to make a direct, fair comparison, which is what we're doing, however, you compare the launch lineups and first year. By your logic, PS3 blows the PS4 out of the water because PS4 has to compete with what PS3 has TODAY, a decade of games. As of TODAY, there is absolutely no reason to buy a PS4 over a PS3.

PS4 took three years to be worth buying, Switch could be worth it within its first year. You're just deflecting and rationalizing, insisting that we can't POSSIBLY compare their launch lineups.

>>378051572
Ok now i know you're delusional.

>underpowered

We are still comparing the Switch and the PS4 right?

And there absolutely is a reason to buy it, as you said 17 exclusive reasons to buy it over the Switch. How many exclusives are out right now on the Switch? Shouldn't take you that long to count them.

>>378051629
No, the post I replied to specifically stated that TLoU lacked that feature, which is just flat out wrong.

Man, arguing with you guys is like talking to a wall.

>>378051486
It just railroads the player and presents them with set pieces and theme park rides between the monotonous waist-high cover shooting segments with disappointing AI. It is style and presentation over substance.

Again, as far as "cinematic" games go, it's probably among the most well-made, but it's still not a good game in and of itself.

>>378040442
Actually, it lacks Xenoblade 2 for example.

>>378051724
>Switch could be worth it within its first year

So you agree that as of now it is not worth a purchase?

>>378051913
>the post I replied to specifically stated that TLoU lacked that feature
But it didn't, it said that the game had limited interactivity. Something you just proved by holding a basic video game feature on a pedestal.

Have you played the fucking game? Yes or no?

>>378051787
>It's only fair to compare these two platforms in a vacuum so the one I like looks better!
PS4 is woefully underpowered too. The Switch is at least portable, whats the PS4's excuse?

>>378051913
>specifically stated that TLoU lacked that feature
And where the fuck did I say that? Oh, right, I didn't, you're just making shit up and arguing it because you have no response and can't elaborate on why the gameplay is good beyond parroting "it's good" over and over.

The PS2 was as powerful as it needed to be, it had what was most important in a console - games.
>>378051787
I'm comparing it to everything, really. The Switch is a hybrid, you can take it with you, and it's powerful for what it is. The PS4? Not so much. It doesn't compare to PC and it doesn't have the advantages the Switch has.
>as you said 17 exclusive reasons to buy it over the Switch.
Like I said, don't care about movie games. Especially when all of its upcoming games are just more movie games. I get why people are hyped for The Last of Us 2 but why would anyone be hyped for it if they care about gameplay? Nintendo's first party support is vastly superior to Sony's trash. Not to mention how much Japan is going to support the Switch.

>>378052058
Fair enough. What would be an example of interactivity that you would not consider "limited"?

I just got done playing BotW on Wii U, so that would probably be a good example. However there aren't any other games I can think of that do it to that level.

>>378052115
>Y-y-you just didn't play it because you don't agree that the game is AWSUM!
Every single time. Don't actually expand upon your arguments and explain why you think I'm incorrect, just insist I didn't play the game because I don't agree with you!

Yes, I played it, I didn't like it. The shooting was fine, it was par for the course, no better or worse than any other TPS I've played in the last decade. Everything else about it was a slog. Too many PONR, a few times I'd want to clear out an area before going back to loot only to have the area now blocked off, too many faux-cutscenes in which I have to sit there and listen to dialogue while "playing" by walking or doing some other painfully mundane task. Again, it simply does not play to the strengths of the medium. Games can do more than present the player with a narrative.

>>378052252
>The PS2 was as powerful as it needed to be

Wow, you couldn't be any more hypocritical if you tried. PS2's shitty hardware gimped many games that would have looked and performed better on XB or GC, basically every multiplat, but PS2 was generally the lead platform for parity. Many PS2 games were 240p or 360p and had to be upscaled, whereas GC and XB were capable of native 480i/p and XB could even do 720 on a small handful of titles.

What's funny is that this has happened twice now. First with The Last of Us, and then Bloodborne. PS3 and PS4 has suffered from the same problems. No games. People still say it's a meme but if that's the case where are the exclusives the PS1 and PS2 had? Sony drones cannot accept that Sony as a company has been getting worse over the years or acknowledge that their past consoles were better.

>>378053145
I always think how wasteful it is for Sony to sit on so many classic and great IPs.

>>378052526
Which is why BOTW is a notable and important game, it pushed the boundaries and typical feature set of an open-world game rather than just playing it safe and delivering more of the same.

TLOU is just restrictive on all fronts. You can't go anywhere the game doesn't want you to go, you can't do anything the game doesn't want you to do in that moment. It's almost entirely linear, it focuses more on its presentation and narrative than on its gameplay. The player is generally following directions rather than making them up themselves, the player isn't making many independent decisions.

>>378052876
This.

PS2 was able to get by on less because brand recognition. Nintendo got the wrong message out of that because clearly Sony just happens to be the one to be the trendsetter, regardless of the competition being more convenient or not.

>>378053145
Bloodborne is at least a good game though, TLOU is just more of the same tensionless themepark rides.

>>378053361
>Which is why BOTW is a notable and important game, it pushed the boundaries and typical feature set of a Zelda game rather than just playing it safe and delivering more of the same.

FTFY

>>378053562

Name another game with that level of world interaction.

>>378053486
Nintendo just does their own thing, they didn't take anything away from 6th gen beyond the fact that continually pushing better and better hardware was not going to be sustainable any longer. Sony obviously didn't take that away from it wither, because the PS3 lost them billions of dollars due to its ridiculous hardware.

>>378047649
>have to put in a disc every time I want to play it on PS4
no thanks.

>>378040442
But that's just the first year, it's gonna keep snowballing from there.

>>378053562
Yes, it did that for both Zelda games and open-world games in general. I know you want to downplay the game because consolewars and all that, but it did in fact push the open-world formula forward with its focus on systems, physics and environmental interaction, rather than visuals.

>>378039885
Bone and PS4 had multiplats like GTAV in their first year.

You also had Black Flag, Injustice, Killzone, MGSV, Infamous, FFXIV, Watch Dogs, Last of Us Remaster, Master Chief Collection, Rare Replay, Diablo III, Destiny, and Guilty Gear Xrd, all in the first year. Actually, now that I've looked it up, their first year wasn't bad at all.

WiiU had Pikmin 3, W101, 3D World, Deus Ex Directors Cut, MonHun 3 Ultimate, Bamham City Definitive Version, newSMBU, Rayman Legends, and other stuff, I forget.


Bayo2, MK8, and Dong Freeze all came second year iirc.

Yeah, I can't agree OP. Those 5 are the only notable games on Switch, two of which are ports of the previous console, which means that if you wanna include BotW and MK8, you gotta allow TLoU, Injustice, MCC, Rare Replay, etc... in which case, it's a no contest win for Xbone/PS4, especially when you consider big hitters like GTAV and Destiny. WiiU wins easy, some of those 3rd party ports like Deus Ex and BamHam were the best version of their games, and MonHun 3U is probably the best MomHun game. The 3rd party support beefed up all three console's first year, Switch totally lacks that, and all their first party stuff fails to impress me.

It's a legit first year but it's not too much stuff I want. Too many multiplayer games released too quickly. I need more single player shit or at least mp shit I can play solo like mh or pokeman

>>378053715
It lost them billions of dollars because the fucking Cell processor was trying to blow the competition out of the water when multicore processing was seen as a new and exotic thing and they went about engineering in all the wrong places.

R&D is what fucked up Sony during the PS3, because they spent so much trying to come up with a CPU standard that tried to do so much and promised so little.

The 3DS had backwards compatibility so your 3DS wouldn't be completely useless while you wait for games.

The N64 had Super Mario 64, Mario Kart 64, Goldeneye and Star Fox 64.

>>378054686
Those came 2nd year. The whole, what, two months the WiiU was out in 2012 are part of the first year, or the "launch window." As the launch window refers to the time between the console launch, and the holiday season, as most consoles are releases right in time for Xmas.

Which would be equivalent to the Switches say... first two months.


3rd year, WiiU got Smash, Splatoon, Mario Maker, Fatal Frame, Yoshi, and XCX.

4th year it was SFZ, Pokken... and... that's really it. It woulda gotten BotW as well, but it was intentionally delayed for Switch.

Top 5 games for Switch.

The Switch is a super indie machine aside from the 1st year AAA titles from Nintendo; which is pretty great.

BotW is a GOTY contender; MK8D is still awesome despite being a port. ARMS looks to be great. Splatoon 2 will be amazing. Mario Odyssey will likely be great. And we still MIGHT get Xenoblade 2 in 2017 (according to Nintendo; but it will probably be 2018)

Thats a solid 1st year all memeing aside.

The third party support on Wii U did fuckall to help sales and I will never understand those that think the opposite.

>>378056968
>That's a shit argument everybody already had a ds to play ds games on.
And that's why the 3DS did so poorly early on, and sold less than half lifetime of what the DS did.

>People already forgot about the ps4 pitiful first years because they got a handful recently.
Depends on your standards. Most people aren't PC gamers, so access to the next gen multiplats was reason enough to buy a PS4, that's why it's sold so well. I know Nintendo fans like to meme "they bought a new console for Netflix? Lel" but people were in fact playing games, you just didn't count them cause they weren't exclusive. But GTAV, TLoU, Injustice, Killer Instinct, MGSV, and Destiny are in fact all games, and games that came to PS4 and Xbone within the first year.

They might not count for you and your console wars, but they count for the people who care about PLAYING games, not shitposting their list of exclusives and Metacritic scores

The AI for enemies was the best I've seen in a game so far

When the Wii U first came out people on here were talking about how great its first year was, and we know how that turned out. Nobody here in their right mind should be buying the Switch right now. It needs a price drop+remodel+more games first.

>>378057585
Those are literally all games previous consoles had.
Fuck off tripnigger don't respond to me

>>378057585
Pretty much this

Most people don't game on PC's, and those that do spent their time begging for exclusives and talking about how PC is better

>>378057812
WiiU also had Deus Ex, MonHun, and Bamham though, and all those were great iterations of their respective games.

>>378057709
DLC went on for about a year or two, that's probably why your memory of its launch is a blur.

You couldn't make it more obvious you haven't played the game.

Is that why they bought these last gen games?

I like Nintendo for their fun games.

more lies
>Priceless logic, absolutely spotless
Nobody ever plays TLOU for the multiplayer
>That's what people do here when they shit on the last of us
Nobody shits on TLOU in terms of cinematics and story, it's what drove Sony to mimic it with everything in the first place because of its success
But it's perfectly fine to shit on its gameplay because it's derivative.
Hence the meme Sony only makes movies not games.
>and the AI does it's job very well
The AI is average for what it does but they still hide with their butts exposed even if you don't use your sensory skills.

>>378058215
Last time I checked MK8D had significant changes made to the game and BoTW was developed in tandem.

Meanwhile the games you listed were outright released prior to those consoles.

Idk, how many people bought a Switch to play WiiU ports? And are STILL begging for more WiiU ports of games like:
Smash 4
Pokken
Mario Maker
Xenoblade X

>>378057525
The third party support on Wii U was beyond shit though. All the games were old ports/buggy both, not to mention the infamous ME3 (they sold the 3rd game at $60 on Wii U while the other consoles got the trilogy for the same price).

>>378058216
BotW. Really, the AI was promised to be good but they didn't deliver. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BF0EaH73ee4

Hilarious how obsessed people are with making the last of us look bad here
No other corner of the internet calls the game shit, just /v/ because it's mostly nintendo and PC users on here
The jealously and shitposting continues, even 4 years after the game came out

>>378058350
If you're counting multiplats and last gen games throw up Disgaea 5 for the Switch too.

>>378058520
>$370 price tag.
where the fuck do you live

>>378058324
Actually, BotW was ready to launch in late 2015, but was pushed back to meet a Switch launch. It even had WiiU exclusive features like the inventory screen on the tablet removed for this reason.

It's a WiiU titled, ported to Switch.

TLoU upscaled the resolution, and made the game a lot prettier, which for a game focused on story and visuals, is as signifcant as adding a battle mode and new characters to a multiplayer focused game like MK8.

>>378058520
BotW is a dual-launch, not port. Its just as much a Switch game as a Wii U title.

Few are buying a Wii U for BotW, it may as well be considered a Switch title.

>>378058449
Last of us is still one of the best singleplayer games ever made

>>378058216
Zelda BOTW let me explain.
The bokoblins, the first enemy you encounter in the game, are made to be easy to fight 1v1.
However if you encounter them in a group, if you don't know what you're doing you're dead.
>kick bombs back at you
>light their weaps on fire if there's a fire source anywhere, doesn't matter if it's a burning weapon, a campfire, etc

>will learn on the fly. if they see that a bomb explodes on their friend when their friend tries kicking it, they'll avoid it when you throw it next time. if they see you shooting the red barrels repeatedly, they'll throw it at you

>>378058665
>dual-launch

>>378058750
Yeah, no. AI is fucking important in a game. I don't care what anybody says. Developers have no excuses for bad AI in modern AAA games.The Last of Us doesn't get a pass just because it won GOTY awards.

>>378058820
The combat in BOTW is broken tho?
But hey that's all nice stuff

>>378058643
>BotW was ready to launch in late 2015
Going to have to provide some evidence there kiddo.

>is as signifcant as adding a battle mode and new characters to a multiplayer focused game like MK8.
Yeah no. Ultimately it's the exact same game with no changes or additions beyond the DLC.

Putting it on the same level as the additional items, reworked Kart stats, new characters, items and karts as well as battle mode just goes to show how deluded you are.

>>378058562
>no arguments
okay

funny that you claim jealousy even though I praised TLOU's cinematics and story

>>378058665
It's not, it's a WiiU title. Switch version adds NOTHING to the experience.

At least TPWii added motion controls, and that is STILL accepted as a GCN game ported to Wii. Idk why you're trying to change the narrative for BotW.

If anything, this proves how poor the Switch's first year really is, otherwise you'd have no problem accepting BotW as a WiiU port, and letting it go.

>>378058938
>The combat in BOTW is broken tho?
The combat in BoTW is actual combat.
In TLoU nothing really matters in combat.

>>378058932
A pass on what? Not being perfect? Nothing is.

>>378058971
You did because you can get that from watching it on youtube
The gameplay tho, you obviously didn't experience

Stop replying to the Sonybros tripfag

>>378040442
The PS4 only had 1 game until a shit ton of great jap ones came out this year and the Xbone still has none

>>378058562
This isn't a rebuttal

I'm comparing it to the current lineup for Wii U and PS4. They are competing for my time, so I will compare it to other games I could currently be playing. Nintendo doesn't get a free break just because they messed up and need to redo their advertising to sell Wii U games to people who thought the Wii U was a bad system.

>>378039885
they all have blue eyes, cmon a little representation for us brownies? jeez

>>378059085
A pass on being mediocre. You fanboys cannot try to meme away the flaws of The Last of Us or the fact Naught Dog lied to players about its features and AI.

>>378059175
>Nintendo doesn't get a free break
No shit, you're doing the exact opposite and are unfairly comparing a console that had just released to one that has been out for a few years.

Why would you ever bother with any console but the ps2 then? Objectively best library.

Fucking retard reasoning.

>>378058665
Why do you think the Wii U version was delayed?

>>378059021
It added better graphics and portability. Came out same day.

Yes, it was developed as Wii U title originally but was pushed for Switch.

Nobody is buying the inferior Wii U version unless they already have a Wii U and want to save money (or arent upgrading to Switch yet)

Its a dual-title. Its as much Switch as Wii U. Its not a straight port newbie.

>>378050248
The leak of Mario x Rabbids financial plan already had a cover and headlines for some gaming magazines and I seriously doubt the game is already finished and ready to review.

>>378059224
I'll just be happy a game like the last of us exists in this day and age
From what I saw in Uncharted 4, the AI in the last of us 2 should deliver what 1 didn't, which is pretty exciting

Wait, that's also on the WiiU
Hilarious, nevermind then

>>378039885
From the perspective of someone who is more than a fair-weather Nintendo fan (ie you owned a Wii U), BotW and MK8D are ports. Splatoon "2" looks like a map pack expansion to a game you may not even be interested in, and ARMS looks like a Punch-out reskin in the same color-vomit art style that they've been pushing so hard as of late.

Odyssey is the only thing remotely good looking, and yeah, 1 game for the first year is basically par for the course. It's not "bad" per se, especially when the others did no better, but it's certainly not good.

>>378040442
im an idort and there's barely like 5-7 games that are actually good that come out each year
dont kid yourself

anything else is bargain bin sale tier

>>378059401
Where's that proof sonny jim?
And are you still really trying to say a little bit of dressing up is the same as adding more content and reworking Kart stats?

>People here hate on the last of us no matter what
>I'm not stupid enough to think arguing with people who's goal is not to argue normally, but to just shit on a game for no reason is a good use of time
Still not an argument, newfag

>>378059729
Joycons aren't comfortable and the portability is useless to me.

>>378059729
Because the Switch doesn't come with a """"""real"""""" controller even though it does, so he's pretending EVERYONE just HAS to buy that too

>>378059590
>the AI in the last of us 2 should deliver what 1 didn't
Really? That's what you believe? Because AI haven't improved for decades now, what makes you think Naughty Dog, who previously lied about "great AI" and then didn't deliver, and didn't answer when people asked about it, would improve the AI in the sequel? It's the same bullshit developers have lied about a thousand times before.
>>378059734
He was so wrong even leddit called him out on it, so yeah, no.

>>378059872
>Joycons aren't comfortable
But you don't own a Switch

>>378059467
The graphics are identical in both games. It only upscaled the resolution to 900p, and ran better after the update.

If anything, the fact that the Switch version needed a post launch update to help it perform better proves it's a port.

Portability is something the console does, it's got nothing to do with the software.

Less people buying the WiiU version doesn't change the fact that it's a WiiU port.

You can't have a game MADE for two consoles with two different architectures. It's always MADE for one, and ported to another. This was clearly seen last gen with the 360 and PS3. In the case of BotW, it was clearly ported to Switch as it was MADE for WiiU, development began there. Launch date doesn't matter, what matters is the console it's native to. It's a WiiU port, you moving goalposts or changing definitions won't change the fact.

>>378039885
BoTW is a medicore game.

You've literally never played an open world game in your life if you think its the best of the genre.

Port

Will be bad but Nintendo fanboys will defend it anyway(just like Splatoon)

Will be good

Most definitely started out as a port but upgraded last minute when they realized the Switch wouldn't release on it's almost 99% confirmed Holiday 2016 release date

Good game but its still a port.

>>378059824
Why would I argue with children?

>>378059778
The problem with Nintendo is simple, their userbase is actually much older than they realize

But what they do is they make games for babies which are too damn easy and brainless, much more than their amazing classics which made people love their games in the first place

I also don't see ARMS as anything but a tech mode really, seems absurd to pay for something like that, it just doesn't seem deep at all, so far

>>378060098
It's a hell of a lot better than anything that's come out in recent years.

>>378059872
>I don't like the controller it comes with, so that means the price tag is $370 for everyone else

I guarantee you've never held the controller anyway. The two halves in the plastic shell are a "real" controller, you hold it in exactly the way you would the pro controller. Only downside is the lack of a proper Dpad.

I really don't get people being buttmad over:
> WHY YOU BUY DIS SHIT CONSOLE
> MUH CONSOLE IS GREAT SHUTUP

Both parties look retarded from the outside. Both suffer from buyer's remorse.
Get over it. Pick a platform. Enjoy it.
Source: I bought XboneS and I am fairly happy. I think about buying Switch for ARMS and SMT V.

>>378060106
>Will be bad but Nintendo fanboys will defend it anyway(just like Splatoon)

Just look at how they ate up Horizon and the Nintendorks abandoned Star Fox.

>>378060051
>the fact that the Switch version needed a post launch update to help it perform better proves it's a port.
The Wii U version got the same updates and performance improvements, genius.

>>378060098
>You've literally never played an open world game in your life if you think its the best of the genre
But he didn't say it was

>>378059809
I've never played TLoU, so I can't argue for or against it. But adding some new characters and a battles mode to a game isn't anything to sing praise over. Didn't you say TLoU PS4 had exclusive DLC? Why doesn't that count. Likewise, Deus Ex and Bamham WiiU added far more content and exclusive functionality than MK8D did, do those not count either?

>>378059925

Amazing
Nothing that guy said was wrong just so you know, he doesn't deal in fairly tales like many here do

At least read posts to the full before replying to them anon

>>378060286

I was with you until this point.

Punch-Out isn't free range, it's pattern recognition. Literally the only thing it has in common with Punch-Out is "Left Punch" and "Right Punch" buttons.

>>378060186
Spiderman 2, Infamous games, Sunset overdrive
All better games

>>378060404
Yes, it did, performance was noticeably better after each update that was reported to improve it. It runs more poorly than the Switch version in general, but it got the same updates and they improved performance, you are 100% objectively incorrect.

>>378060408
Thanks I will

>>378060402
>he doesn't deal in fairly tales like many here do
lol. He thinks he knows better than veterans that spent decades making games, I would say that's living in la la land. He's worse than egoraptor, at least egoraptor knows he's a retard.

>>378060460
To be fair I haven't really followed ARMS because I dislike the art style that much. I also find it really hard to get behind purely competition-based games that pit two players against each other and that's the entire gameplay. It seems extremely shallow. If it was $10 on eShop or something but asking $60 for that kind of experience is way overpriced when I'm mostly looking for single player experiences (crafted worlds, stories, etc)

I should be more clear. They will need to beat out the other things that I could be playing right now on any other console or PC. Since I've played most of the PS2 games I want, they hold less weight since I probably wouldn't choose to play them either. However, PS4 is hitting its prime and Wii U just got what could be game of the year. Meanwhile, Switch only has Splatoon in the near future and maybe Arms if it turns out to be good. Up to this point it has been nothing but a portable Wii U with the future promise of paid online, which is really not a good sell to someone who had a Wii U.

How come Nintendo get to have daily shill threads?

>>378060460
>and ARMS looks like a Punch-out reskin in the same color-vomit art style that they've been pushing so hard as of late.

Please leave and go back to your adult game for mature gamers.

>>378060590
The updates did not improve performance on the Wii U version. DF did a video comparison and there's no change

At the end of the day, they shelved a game that was ready for release in 2015 in order to port it to Switch. Switch is a port. You're acting like an idiot. It doesn't make it a lesser game just because it's a port. It does mean it wasn't developed with that console in mind, however.

>>378060637
You know better tho?

>>378059778
>Splatoon "2" looks like a map pack expansion
No, it fucking doesn't. When will this tired meme end? I don't own the first game and have little interest in this one, but it's a sequel, period. No one called Titanfall 2 an expansion pack because it reused some maps and weapons.

>ARMS looks like a Punch-out reskin
No, it doesn't. Its an entirely new game. All games based on the sport of boxing are not the same thing, you blathering moron.

>>378060653
Anyone with a brain can tell you Punch-Out!! doesn't play like a boxing game, much less a fighting game with 3D movement

You don't have to watch a single clip of ARMS to get that.
