Why is this? Is it because Nintendo chose to go for a weak system? I just don't understand. This keeps on happening.

Go look at what happened on the NES and you have your answer. This is nothing new for Nintendo.

Because Nintendo is phasing out their handhelds, and their home console for the third time in a row is underpowered and for the second time not even a half step from the last system.

who the fuck wants to play game on a tiny ass screen or on a 720p TV at 30 fps? Third party support on Nintendo is non existent, nobody wants to be in affairs with a shit company, that's why they keep reashing the same IPs every year. Nintendo innovation my dick, all gimmick trash for kids.

Kind of makes you wonder why 720/30 multiplats are so popular then.
>>
>>383260251
Ports are difficult with Nintendo. The Switch is so underpowered that either games have to be built specifically for it, or the devs have to be wizards at optimization (relatively, most devs are script monkeys). In a way, it makes sense. Nintendo can secure a customer base by forcing devs to make exclusives for it. The Switch will probably get its share of exclusive gems like the wii and to a lesser extent the wii u.
>>
>>383260251
Because they have less fear of overtly cannibalizing their market. So they can get away with double dipping the franchise.

It also lets them craft a single, new consumer image of the series in the West.

As to why it isn't on the switch, well the switch can't handle it without a graphical or functional downgrade that they deemed unacceptable, of course.
>>
>>383260251
Nintendo exists in a vacuum of itself and the most brain-dead knuckle dragging man-baby fans who will throw money at whatever stupid shit they fart out. Nintendo is fine because the morons who support their greedy practices and mediocre games will suckle at the teet until they die of old age.

>Buying Nintendo consoles
>Expecting non-nintendo games
This has gone on since the N64 unchanged at this point. The shitposters and the Switch early adopters are both retarded for being surprised that 3rd party support is playing out EXACTLY as bad as it has since the 5th generation. The reason that the Switch is so retarded is that they brought this problem that their consoles have had to their handheld market which hasn't had the same issue.

You people don't understand how thoroughly Yamauchi's actions poisoned Nintendo's relationships in the gaming industry. There's a reason the devs that do work with them are like 90% post SNES.

From the voices of real third party devs:

>Nintendo Switch's ARM CPU isn't powerful enough to handle our games vision. We would have to downgrade how many enemies visible on screen, reduce draw distance for usable objects, and tone down how much spell effects that are displayed at once.

>Nintendos publishing policy for the Switch is more restrictive than Steam or PS4. The licensing fees are higher if you want to make a physical or digital release, there are certain quality assurance meddling that Nintendo does which delays our games, and they don't give us as much developer support or marketing support as other competitors.

>We would love to make games for the Switch, however we fear that they will not sell as well like on other platforms. Nintendo consumers tend to prefer first party games over third party games, this is especially true if any third party game launches near the same date as a Nintendo title. So we must delay our games to avoid that competition or hope that Nintendo has enough consumers that are interested in third party on their console than PS4 or Xbox One.

>>383260851
>well the switch can't handle it without a graphical or functional downgrade that they deemed unacceptable, of course.
it runs on MT Framework, that fucking thing can run on netbooks

What's probably really happening is the Switch is getting a new Monster Hunter Portable title, gotta rehash those assets somehow
>>
>>383260251
Capcom just wants to popularze the series in the west. They talked about it months ago, how they believe that MH series sales and popularity are stale in the west due to not being on home system.
All of you people are retarded. And PS4 is still quite popular in Japan as well, not as much as handhelds, but still, it's killing two birds with one stone.

This right here.

This right here is what has fucked them ever since their NES days. It fucked them during their SNES days, it fucked them during their N64 days, it fucked them during their Virtual Boy* days, GameCube, not so much Wii because they actually relaxed it for a change, but then they turned around and fucked themselves again for Wii U. And now they act surprised when it fucks them during Switch days.

*-On a minor scale. Their hardware fucked themselves with this one.

P3rd has one release, on the PSP. It had a HD remaster much much later on, but that sold far less. It's the PSP release that has sold the most in the franchise.

Meanwhile Tri has 4 releases.

Nintendo is third-party poison. They hate games as medium. They just want to maximize their profits even if it hurts the industry by cutting out other devs.

We're talking about games that are exactly the same like the multiple iterations of FU not the various G expansions, pay attention.

With that said you're right about P3rd having one single PSP release but in that case it barely sold over the 3DS versions seeing as X, 4U and 4 are directly behind it on Capcom's own site.
>>
>>383262920
The sales are pretty bad. It's smart though how even Nintendo saw this in advance and decided to ship just as much as was demanded so they'll trick investors that there's big demand. I wonder if they fall for it.

>>383262778
And Capcom is well known for gambling. Because they tried something different with Resident Evil 4, they made Devil May Cry, which is one their best selling franchises and RE4 itself, which made the series a bigger hit than they could imagine.

Who ever said this bullshit, obviously was thinking clearly.

It also doesn't help these retards don't understand that you shouldn't release your game so fucking close to one of Nintendo's popular titles of one of their long running series if you're releasing on their system. Also , he would also have problems with other big named thirdparty devs and their long running popular series eating up the sales of other big name games and lesser know, less popular third party games. Its literally not okay because its a Nintendo game eating up their sales.
>>
Nintendo don't have any pattern recognition. Every home console generation since the SNES they've released hardware that is either underpowered or has a weird quirk that drives away third parties and then seem surprised when sales drop.

Less games = less sales

It's not hard Nintendo

Nintendo is known to have poor SDKs and they don't offer marketing support like Steam does for their marketplace.
>>
>>383263942
The real question is why would third party developers purposely announce and make a game they have no intention supporting fully instead of making a game more suitable for it using a B team or something?
It's because western third parties are lazy, if they can't do everything on the cheap and quickly for maximum profit then they'll just abandon people who want to play their games

>so nintendo has to their job for them?

Yes if you didn't know Sony and Microsoft pay to have games on their system. Big AAA don't even market their own games anymore been like that since 7th gen.

Nintendo doesn't think they should have to advertise the game for them. Putting up a lil eShop trailer cost nothing to showcase games. But third party companies literally want everything done for them with minimum effort.

This is what these companies invest now getting advertising rights for games to make normal fags consumers think it's exclusive to the system see destiny and eat games.

meanwhile Steam lets the developer self publish, the developer has full control over sale pricing and their steam game forum, developers can easily track game statistics and sale analytics, steam has curators which literally shill your games to consumers. steam does a lot more for the benefit of the developer than nintendo does.

We're getting lots of new blood with games like Splatoon 2, HZD, ARMS, Nioh, etc. Although it seems with systems that have come out in the last 5 years that the first year or so of releases is dominated by ports more likely as a way of getting a foothold for new systems.

Nintendo has embraced the fact that they know they can carry themselves alone with no one help. This is both a blessing and a curse.

The third party almost fuck up the 3DS because Nintendo decided to release a minimal amount of first party titles to give then a chance. Most people will ignore this fact.

The Wii U show Nintendo that they should never trust 3rd party developers and that they have the power to move their own consoles alone. Most people will also ignore this and forget they had strong 3rd party support at early stages.

sony bought the exclusive rights for MH in the west with World and the reason it looks fucking washed out and casualized is because they want to make WESTERNIZED MONHUN and cut nintendo out of the picture completely.

they want people to associate monster hunter with gritty "mature" realistic western design with nothing colorful or 'silly' or 'japanese', if we see a single Felyne in World i will be shocked, that's simply too japanese for our western eyes!

Nintendo consoles are typically very annoying to port games to. In many cases due to money constraints developers have to choose to either develop only for Nintendo consoles or develop for every console except Nintendo consoles.

This is because both their hardware and software is completely different from every other platform and their software is highly proprietary and it's difficult to translate a game from any other platform's software to Nintendo software.

There's also the additional fact that Nintendo as a company are notoriously hard to work with as a third or even second party developer as they often include clauses in their contracts that give them editorial control over the content of your game and won't budge on this rule in most cases. Basically if you develop for Nintendo you have to be willing to let Nintendo dictate what is allowed in your game even if your game is coming out on every other platform as well.

Simply put, Nintendo hardware is weird and under-powered, their software is designed with shitloads of proprietary protections and security measures that make it a bitch to port games to it and the company itself is annoying to work with and like to stick their noses into your development cycles.

There's a good damn reason that the majority of Nintendo's console releases have been 1st party ever since they clamped down on 3rd party content after the SNES.

3ds is still selling better and getting more games than the switch
>>
>>383260251
Because the Switch is the Wii again. We knew this the moment they announced it would have:
>overpriced accessories just to get a standard gameplay experience
>higher/similar priced console than the competition despite the fact that it's weaker and didn't come with a game
>the power difference is similar to when comparing the Wii to Xbox360/PS3, basically way too underpowered

It got it's initial sales boost based on novelty, just like Wii. But the attach rate and number of game purchases is going to be absolute dogshit again. So, no it's not getting multiplats, especially considering what happened with Wii/Wii U and publishers already know that. I mean, why would you want the latest big game on it anyways? It would have to be hampered down tremendously to fit and work. Consider Spiderman 3. The Wii version was definitively the worst, only really existing for the novelty of swinging your arms like a retard to web swing. It had less content than the other versions, less visual fidelity and lower framerate most of the time. That's the future you would have to look forward to if you bought multiplats on Switch. It would be for novelty and nothing else. That's why no one fucking bought multiplats on Wii/Wii U, thus they never sold, and why publishers aren't falling for the same shit with Switch.

Now imagine Sony attempting to carry themselves, they would crash and burn within a month without 3rd party developers to pay to for exclusive content and such.

This is why Sony fans get so upset, they know their company is primarily and ONLY a business, while Nintendo is a business too, they are an actual gaming company than been there for 40 years and more to come, a company with a semblance of an actual soul, if that was not the case their IP's would have been dead long ago, and here they are stronger than ever.

they poured money into SFV as well which came to PC, they do that kind of shit all the time. they are cutting out nintendo because nintendo is considered for children, not for 'mature gamers' who they want to market MH to.

No, it's hard to port them so it takes more development time than it would to port to any other platform, which costs more money and delays release.

I hear talk Nintendo forces parity between physical and digital releases. The reason why Puyo Puyo Tetris was $30 on PS4 and $40 on Switch was because the Switch was the only one to get a physical version, a version that would cost $10, and because of parity, it also had to be $10 more on the eShop.

It's fucking bizarre.

>>383267135
While I agree with you anon, and you're right, it's very much a greed thing. They would make enough money to justify it, especially since the Switch is reported as the easiest Nintendo console to ever port to. The problem is that publishers don't have faith that they'll make their """projected""" sales. There's a difference. Projected is what they want, not what they need. And that's the issue you have with greedy devs like Capcom, Square Enix and was THQ who expected the fucking world out of their games and didn't get it, so they just throw away any trust their fanbases have with DLC to make up that "projected sales number".
>>

It sold almost as much as the 360 version of Bayo 1. A console that sold almost 10 times as much as the Wii U.
Wonderful 101 sold fairly well for a new IP under the same conditions.

Perspective is a thing you have to consider anon. For instance a AAA game can also be considered a flop after selling 3 mil units depending on how much money was pumped into development and marketing.

But none of what you've written here happened with either the Wii or the Wii U. So publishers have an incentive to not waste the time and money.

You aren't happy with what got ported to Wii/Wii U? Well tough shit. That just shows the perception that most publishers have of Nintendo consoles. It's no one's fault but Nintendo's for breeding a vision of ineptitude and weak hardware and third party relations.

Here's a question this entire thread seems to have forgotten.

Who the fuck buys Nintendo consoles for 3rd party games? I have a Ps4 and a PC for that. Why the fuck would anyone in the current generation of gaming (7th? 8th?) be stupid enough to limit themselves to one platform? Who the fuck ONLY owns Nintendo platforms and its griping about 3rd parties not porting their games to them when its been like that for literally 7-8 generations? Summerfags? Extremely frugal people who are JUST NOW getting into videogames wondering "Why can't I just play all the PS4 games on my swtich or visa versa? Why can't I have it all on ONE platform?"

Because Nintendo keeps trying to make weirdo shit. That's LITERALLY it.

Nobody wants to make a game for an annoying and unfamiliar fucking device and test the shit out of it for all sorts of development nightmares when they could toss it on Xbox/PS4/PC instead and not have to bash their fucking heads in for minimal Nintendo owner sales.

Except the western advertisements were all done by Nintendo.
It's also worth noting that Nintendo wanted to pay for the localization of the DQ remakes on 3DS but Square turned them down for some reason.
>Sony treats them better
By only promoting Persona, which only 5 had major advertising mind you, while leaving just about every other game they've made on Sony systems in Japan.
Most Atlus games on Nintendo system have been localized.

Right. Nintendo has dominated in Japan, especially when Sony has been losing relevance in their home country. The Switch will gain even more support. When people talk about third party support they only consider the west which personally I don't care about.

I don't see how World is even remotely viewed by Sonyfags as being a possible success for them either. It's a multiplat that's following the old Capcom trend of trying to "update" the franchise for a western audience, and we know how good Capcom is at that.

Daily reminder that Nintendo literally (l i t e r a l l y) did the same exact thing with MH last gen that you think Sony is doing now.

Okay so what Monster Hunter game did Nintendo prevent from coming to the west.

The same reason people abandoned the last few Nintendo consoles too? I don't know why this is a surprise to anyone anymore. When you don't make a competitive console devs have one of two options. A: Devote their team entirely to making a Switch exclusive and cut themselves off from the rest of the huge gaming market or B: Devote extra manpower towards forcing their game down to Switch constraints to deliver an inferior product. Nintendo's philosophy of fuck you we'll do what we want works for their handhelds when they have no competition and the Vita/PSP are a joke. But when the 360 and the PS4 are selling ridiculously, the Nintendo console isn't the primary target.

tl;dr It makes more sense financially to develop a game that seamlessly ports from Xbone to PS4 to PC and just ignores the Switch

>The story of putting a game on the switch was from Iwata (before Nintendo) president era.
>>
>>383270906

It's all about maximum investment. So even if it's a company large enough to have a B team they're going to be working on shit like Rayman Raving Rabbids or Wii while the A Team is working on Assassin's Creed for the 360. And when you get down to smaller teams like Arkane they can only afford to work on one game at a time. But back to companies who can afford it, why would EA and Bioware waste resources having the B team work on a Wii/Wii U/Switch exclusive that's going to hit a niche market when they could have Team A working on Mass Effect and Team B working on Dragon Age so there's a consistent back and forth release schedule of a AAA Bioware title on the major consoles with no lull inbetween.

>I just don't understand. This keeps on happening.

The issue is that Nintendo wants to be about pheriphirals for profits sake.

They don't realize, that from a consumer, its the software consumers are interested not the fucking shit u use it on. (ie, platform/controller)

They keep forcing all these fucking gimmicks that don't help in anything. The wii chucks, the wii u tablet, and now the switching dildo.

I don't give a flying FUCK about that and neither do most of the consumers. If you're software is gonna stop at mario, smash, and zelda then that's as much interest you're gonna get from me as a consumer,

You can't expect to compete with Microsoft because Halo and Forza don't intertwine with the genre of Mario, Smash, and Zelda. Same with Sony and same with SEGA.

It's a shame but this was the inevitable downfall of Nintendo and it's been happening generation after generation because they choose to ignore it.

Sure making Dynasty Warrior imitations based off their major IPs such as Hyrule Warriors and now Fire Emblem Warriors is great and some of us will enjoy those products but this concept is 2 generations late and they didn't even appreciate what Hyrule Warriors did for them.

Seriously, this has been going on since the fucking NES and anyone who've been in video games since then and isn't a Nintendo fanboy knows that, third parties were only putting up with it because Nin was the leader in sales by a huge gap and they slightly did it again for the Wii for the same reason.

They all jumped ship to go to the Playstation as soon as they could since Sega was looking more and more unreliable with the bad releases of the Mega CD, 32X and then Saturn. Nintendo is still extremely salty about Square leaving and to this day refused any new numbered FF to be released on their consoles.
>>
>>383271639

It's not that they have to be. It's just that they're being forced to work inside a box and often with tacked on gimmicks. I know people love to use that "limitations bring out true creativity!" line but it's not always the case. Nintendo consoles have been severely underpowered compared to their competitors for multiple generations now. For true creatives like Platinum they make it work but for the 3rd parties that matter, the heavy hitters, they're trying to make games for the status quo. They're trying to cast a wide net. It's why one thing catches on, Ubisoft style open world has been the big meme lately, and then every AAA publisher starts riding that train. And those creative games from ambitious developers don't sell on Nintendo consoles. W101 was a joke in the sales department despite being one of the most creative exclusives in Nintendo history. No big name publisher is going to waste time and money on cultivating some passionate indie B Team for Nintendo consoles when they get huge easy returns elsewhere.

It's really sad when Hyrule Warriors was the freshest and most excited I've been over a Nintendo IP in a long time. Hope Odyssey is good.

Surely it has nothing to do with the fact that Western devs consider environmental graphics to be very important while japs are okay with making things barely recognizable.

They didn't have it set up for the west which was where Sony failed to help anon despite the fact that they were in a similar situation with Peace Walker and made it work which was also in that article meaning that the option of getting it online was totally feasible.

If you're still too dense to understand I don't know how much clearer I can make it for you.

The "box" is that they can't make the same type of game that sells in the mainstream today on Nintendo consoles. Plain and simple. Nintendo hardware doesn't allow it. Those devs who work outside the box and make truly unique and creative experiences like No More Heroes and Wonderful 101 sell like shit.

So let's turn this on the other foot. What's the answer. Their "B Team" games don't sell for shit and their "A Team" games can't run on underpowered hardware. There's not a single 3rd party in the Top 10 selling Wii U games. And so far your only response is HURR MAKE BETTER GAMES. Well that doesn't even work for Platinum, one of the most respected devs in the industry.

You're wrong at the gate. There isn't a better handheld at this time, especially when it comes to hardware.
>>
>>383273185
Or you just consider it a portable console for a second and look at the specs like a functioning human being

You sound just the companies trying to come up with a excuse as to why you don't like it while it's doing very while and has massive influence.

But yeah sure it's "failing" and it's a "gimmick".
Explains why others trying to make those gimmicks their own.

what i'm getting for this thread is that capcom is lazy as fuck and can't publish other franchises outside RE and SF in the west without helped even if they tried.
>>383269525
because atlus strugled to put anything on the PS3 and psp.
while rockstar, sega and se were releasing good games on the psp. they only did half assed ports and went to the DS/3DS because they would not need to put effort on teh games.

>consumers eat costs for stupid R&D
No, the company ate those costs years ago (both Nintendo and Nvidia).

What consumers get charged for is production, transportation, and licensing.

Yeah there is, mongoloid. There are even tablets more powerful than the Switch.

>>383273865

There are like 2-3 and that's about it. On top of that none of them get games like the Switch is getting.
>>
>>383273367
>The "box" is that they can't make the same type of game that sells in the mainstream today on Nintendo consoles.
Despite the fact that there is an audience for them on nintendo systems especially when it comes to the switch given the portability factor.
With that said no one is saying that they SHOULD make the same games hence the point of the B-team developing a different game they think that audience would buy.

>Their "B Team" games don't sell for shit
And why do you think that is?
Instead of doing a modicum of research on social media websites into what people WANT on the system they go ahead and make generic party games or outsource games to a group that's notorious for horrendous ports just like the Wii U.
>>
>>383273624

Deus Ex, Mass Effect, Ass Creed, Call of Duty all sold like shit on Nintendo consoles.

You know what sells well? Those "low effort" B Team games you said they don't HAVE to make. Like Just Dance and the Wii ___ series of games. Even Monster Hunter did poorly.
>>
>>383272776
Is providing marketing, publishing and distribution to a third party in order to secure exclusive games not moneyhatting? Yes it is, and Nintendo did it.

And when did Sony prevent them from making games for other systems? Don't respond to this post unless you plan on posting proofs.
>>
>>383274028
Not the same guy as before

Also Monster Hunter did poorly, outside Japan.

You do realise they're literally preventing localization of XX in the west right?
>>
>>383273903

I know it's hard for you to follow a line from Point A to Point B so I'll spoonfeed it to you.

When they spend a substantial amount of money making gimmicks that scale then has to be balanced out to avoid 599 US dollars. The same thing was CONFIRMED to be the case for the Wii U tablet being what kept the console as a whole underpowered. They can't create a console that rivals the other two in power while also filling it with their new technology gimmicks and still put it at a reasonable price while making a profit.
>>
>>383274028
>Deus Ex, Mass Effect, Ass Creed, Call of Duty all sold like shit on Nintendo consoles.
All but one, Assassin's Creed were sabotaged.

Deus Ex got ported before launch and the other consoles got discounts.
Mass Effect was released right after a trilogy set.
Call of Duty didn't get basic shit like bug fixes. The last good Call of Duty on a Nintendo console was World at War.

>looks like more lazy rehashing

The sad state of Nintendo atm. It's a shame so many great IPs with nothing going for them. Even the new Metroid looks they didn't even put an ounce of the effort they waste with Mario Odessey.

>>383272650
>If you mean flexibility in controllers

The overall console, yes controllers included. Like you said it's a hassle to say no since that design is the premise for being on store shelf and people's homes. Not an easy thing to do and justify.

>>383272812
>they're expensive to make

Yes their motto of cheap has essentially back fired on them but it doesn't stop them from doing it each and generation. At this point they are just to prideful or arrogant to drop that approach.

-----

Nintendo has so much to offer but Nintendo is essentially the only thing holding Nintendo back. Yet the only franchise they let loose is Mario and not even Zelda gets to innovate to the degree Mario has. From SNES Mario to N64 To NGC to Wii U to Switch Mario. The only IP that they allow to Ever change and ever grow.

>>383274226
Expect if you did your research you'd understand Nintendo makes a loss from selling the console and makes it back from software and additional controller sales.

But don't worry anon, I know when you see big numbers you must get confused.
>>
>>383274417
That's Sony you retard.
Nintendo rarely sells a console at a loss.
>>
>>383274216
You mean Sony, Microsoft and Gaben are all preventing the localization of XX. Funny how they didn't prevent the localization of MHX despite know full well MHW is coming.

Don't talk shit about shit you don't know. Kirby is on a hot streak that almost no other series has right now.

No, just Sony.
Unless you want to suggest that MHW is being sold on PC and Xbox in the east too.
It's not.

>>383274028
Monster Hunter's always sold low on home consoles. Tri had the highest sales of any home console Monster Hunter at 1.9 million.

>>383274417

Except they sell like hot shit too.

Just look at Just Dance on Wii U both managed to sell less than Rayman Legends. The only time those types games ever sold was on the Wii and PS2 when they were used as basic party things.

retards are so stupid they honestly think a game with a 3 in the title is the first game in a series.

Nintendo only sold the 3DS and the Wii U at a loss. Normally, they target a low, but still existent profit margin.
>>
>>383274815

To be fair that's because nobody bought the Wii U.

IIRC they tried selling the 3DS at a profit too. That was that whole first year fiasco where it sold like absolute dog shit and Nintendo had to slash prices and promise to rebrand everything.
>>
>>383274901
And according to you it should have still sold more than Rayman.

Difference is asking the people in the scene who make this stuff and manufactures compared to reporters who haven't done their research
>>
>>383275241
Not that it's big or clunky
The battery life is also the same as the other portable systems on the highest settings too.

The Wii U's shit sales showed the complete opposite, that Nintendo cannot carry an entire console by themselves and that you need 3rd party support more than ever to survive these days

>save files locked to system. Can't transfer them to SD card or to an online server like literally any otehr system allows, including the half decade old Vita, in case something happens to your Switch
>Phone usage required for a lot of friend interaction / invites / lobby creation / chat. You'll be draining the battery of 2 devices instead of just 1.

There, some reasons, But I could keep on going for hours. I could also tell you why it's shit as a homeconsole.
>>
>>383274972
Right, they gave 3DS their usual pricing, and public perception backfired because it looked like they were overcharging compared to the Vita, which was selling at a loss and making up for it with high memory card markup, so they ended up having to sell their hardware at a big loss for the first time. It's something they normally avoid.
