Quote "When it comes to the scale of software development, Wii U with HD graphics requires about twice the human resources than before." "We may have underestimated the scale of this change and as a result, the overall software development took more time than originally anticipated just as we tried to polish the software at the completion phase of development."https://www.forbes.com/sites/insertcoin/2013/07/08/miyamoto-admits-nintendo-underestimated-the-switch-to-hd/#482112cf5294 The first 10 months of the Wii U were barren. Mediocre and redundant launch titles. Then nothing of value until Pikmin 3 the August after launch. There's no period of time where the Switch has ever had it so bad.

CastlevaniaNut18 Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Some people are impossible to please and just enjoy complaining. I love my Switch, but I don't care to pay full price for an inferior port, even if it is just about my favorite game of all time. But Switch has plenty else to offer. People who say otherwise are just grumblers who love to bitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 This port will be grotty. Hold the game back until the Switch Pro and make it Pro exclusive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Switch has a bunch of games already released. Both new and ports/remasters. I feel like currently they’re in a spot where since Smash they don’t have any big releases or something really anticipated. I can’t remember but the only notable games I can remember are the yoshi game and the new super Mario Bros u port. Waiting on Mario Maker 2 ill probably get Witcher 3 but I agree with an earlier post. Their high prices are fucking dumb. I think LA noire released for 60? Maybe 40. If Witcher 3 is 60 I’ll wait 8 months for a sale down to 35 dollars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CastlevaniaNut18 Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Fire Emblem is also a big title coming next month. Switch has great games. I've even started buying indies exclusively on Switch, where I used to just get them on Steam. The portability factor really makes a difference.

The one place the Switch has been lacking for me is with interesting 3rd party games I can't get elsewhere. Nintendo's predictably tapped Platinum Games, Team Ninja and Ubisoft for that this gen. But I want to see more diversity again. Cadence of Hyrule is a start. Get Mistwaker back on The Last Story 2 or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be nice, but I already feel I have more than I can possibly play between Switch, PS4 exclusives, and everything else on PC. I have my Switch for Nintendo exclusives and a PS4 for Sony exclusives. That's what I buy those systems for and I'm good with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koei Tecmo, Square Enix, Bandai Namco, Atlus, and some Indie devs. It’s a pretty good list considering Switch is coming off the Wii U generation.

I want more than just exclusives made by Nintendo on the thing. Historically, the 3rd party exclusives have been some of my favorite games on their systems, especially N64 on. I generally don't use my Switch for games I can get elsewhere. Not because of the hardware limitations, but because the prices suck. I'm too stringy and lazy to spend more on a portability tax. 15 minutes ago, ManUtdRedDevils said: Koei Tecmo, Square Enix, Bandai Namco, Atlus, and some Indie devs. It’s a pretty good list considering Switch is coming off the Wii U generation. Where is SMT V? SquareEnix isn't making bonafide exclusives anymore. Koei Tecmo is relegated to Warriors stuff and Ultimate Alliance I guess. As with the Wii U, its Platinum doing the heavy lifting.

If it's a 2D indie game, it's all but guaranteed that I'll get it on Switch rather than another system. I think the only factor that might make me reconsider is if there is expected to be healthy and interesting mod support. That generally isn't the case for 2D indies though.

Indies are already cheap enough, that I'm not too worried about price. And the days of third party exclusives are largely gone and that's for all systems. But, shit, at least it's not as bad as Xbox, which has essentially no exclusives anymore. 7 minutes ago, crispy4000 said: Not enough of those have materialized yet, IMO. Where is SMT IV?

SMT IV is on 3DS, released years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Indies, it's more the comparative price across platforms. If a game has a historical low of $10 on PC, and is going for $20 on Switch, I'll never buy the Switch version. In fact, I'll wait to buy it on PC in a bundle if I'm patient. (with most indies, I am) With so many games worth playing, I've started to take price in account more. That just leaves the Switch in a bad position for me for multiplatform stuff. Nothing truly feels like its on sale when there's always bigger discounts across the street. 8 minutes ago, CastlevaniaNut18 said: SMT IV is on 3DS, released years ago. Meant SMT V.

With so many games worth playing, it's why I'm not bitching about getting everything on Switch. There's just too much worth my time and I have other hobbies aside from gaming. And portability is a huge factor for me, which is why it doesn't bother me to spend a few more dollars for that convenience. In regards to indies, anyway. 5 minutes ago, crispy4000 said: Meant SMT V.

Zaku3 Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 I did buy RE4 but it is hard to justify multiplats on the Switch. 1440p>720p. I did buy Valkyria Chronicles 4 on both systems but it seems like a waste. I will buy all the heavy hitters from Nintendo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The second will be a slightly more powerful Switch. Also rumored is the Switch Pro is delayed until next year. We shall see. I will check with you before giving my Switch away to see if you have one.

I bought VC4 on Switch, because it's not a demanding or graphical powerhouse of a game. Plus, the portability is a nice factor for RPGs. I haven't yet played it, though.

It's not a knock on the Switch though. I have a pretty mean Hearts of Iron 4 mp addiction so I plan to just keep my purchases to heavy hitter switch games for now. Sincr I can play them at work.
