What are some practices that are unanimously agreed to be bad, but suddenly become okay once Nintendo does it? I'll go first.
>Overpriced hardware >Games that never drop in price >Proprietary memory cards >Dumbing down games to attract larger audience >DLC >Free-to-play >Pay to win >In-game purchases >Cosmetics >Shutting down fan games/projects >Season passes >Mobile cash-ins >Gacha
>overpriced the switch isn't really overpriced if I'm being honest here, compared to most (actually good) tablets. most good tablets could run you about $250 depending on the store.
Ayden Martinez
>proprietary memory cards Nintendo hasn't done that since the gamecube
Wyatt Howard
Who are some people who would be enjoying games if they weren't so obsessed with Nintendo? I'll start >OP
Dylan Rivera
Paid online
Gabriel Lee
I think the actual console is priced fine, but joycons are priced awfully compared to how quickly they start to fuck up.
Robert Price
Cope.
Jack King
yawn
Brayden Walker
>OP has been doing this for three years >also jobless and a literal fag oof
Bentley Mitchell
even then that's something that feels more on the user, I've had my switch since launch and drift has literally never been an issue. That whole thing reminds me of when people blamed the 3DS when they broke off the circle pad playing smash when in reality they were retard smashing the thing.
Liam Powell
Nintendo should go third-party. Their consoles and handhelds are fucking ass. Just make games for the PC and PS4. Reaches a wider market, games look and perform better. Everyone wins.
Christian Brown
Have sex.
Isaac Lopez
Coming from DSLite most 3DS models felt cheaply made in comparison.
Juan Fisher
obsessed
Parker Thomas
cringe
Jason Rodriguez
Dilate.
Cameron Adams
I could understand them doing it in the Wii U era but getting them to do it now would be a feat
Michael Ward
better hardware doesn't necessarily mean the game will look and perform better, I don't understand why people immediately assume that. It speaks volumes that 60fps was a common thing that nobody bragged about during the Gamecube and Dreamcast era, but now it's so uncommon that it's a fucking selling point when devs do it.
Performance was always a big deal. If you were around during the early age of 3D, you'd know that.
Logan Johnson
>but now it's so uncommon It's standard for MP games. It's definitely more common than past gen.
Luis Flores
seething
Jaxon Peterson
If Nintendo supposedly get away with everything then why did the Wii U flop?
Ethan Baker
>better hardware doesn't necessarily mean the game will look and perform better, The ultimate Nintenfat cope. Enjoy that Doom running 500p 20fps on Switch while 1080p60fps everywhere else.
Nintendo has always been about their hardware as much as they are about their games are you stupid or just ignorant?
Nolan Ramirez
I have a switch and a PC, I have Mario Kart, Brawl, and Zelda. I already had all these ports so I regret my purchase, what else should I get for my switch?
Grayson Diaz
Put your trip back on, Caramel.
Kevin Peterson
>Brawl at least try.
Xavier Stewart
performance then was more of a "look at how much we can show on screen, look at how well the game processes these polygons" but it was still pretty common either way. Now all people care about it whether a game drops 2 frames during gameplay and the fact that there are still devs that make 30fps games on advanced hardware like PS4 and PC.
Carson Flores
Making bad games.
Nicholas Robinson
Seriously what's with all these blatant Nintendo hate threads? I thought this was Nintendogaf?
Xavier Phillips
0/10
Logan Rodriguez
Sony fans are a minority on this board, and make up 100 % of the shitposting.
Carter Jones
snoyfags are on suicide watch since people noticed atherine will be censored. Mods have already deleted all threads on it, to protect the poor sonygaf this place really is.
Jaxon Miller
except it's literally true, you can easily find modern games on PS4 and PC that still have performance issues or run at fucking 30fps despite being made by big AAA devs
>Games that never drop in price If a game continues to sell very well at full price, why would they ever lower it? The thing about Nintendo games is that they continue to sell strong numbers far after they are released. Most AAA games sell the majority of their copies in the first few weeks, but a game like Mario Kart will sell a few hundred thousand copies every month for years.
William Scott
So they are the niggers of Yea Forums?
Dominic Reyes
Now put that game on Switch and see how it runs you absolute nincel
Gabriel Thomas
That's why they are called sonyggs
Brandon Watson
I mean yeah. If we look nintendos home consoles each console is worse than the last one after NES if we look them by units sold. Wii was exeception because it was a gimmick with only merit being waggle controls combined with 99% of shovelware.
Jose Wright
>shit performance is okay is snoy does it! LOL
Brody Turner
Im old enough to remember 60fps being a selling point for F-Zero X
Ryder Hernandez
>that damage control cope
Kevin Rodriguez
Seething
Cameron Gray
>Games that never drop in price This is only true for the eshop. If you're buying physical, a bunch of big Switch games are down to $50.
Kayden Hughes
I'm not talking about how it runs on the switch though, I'm just saying that better hardware does not inherently mean the game will run better. Devs will still make it about as well as they typically do, Nintendo on other systems wouldn't suddenly start making 4k120fps games if they started making PC games, they'd still be making games at the same level as they were on their own systems
Parker Johnson
I believe that few companies could make a $ 60 game whose core experience is in sharing levels, putting this entire overpriced game behind a paywall and not becoming a victim of fan fury, be mocked in the press and having the values in stock market impacted.
