Very true but again, it selling well now doesn’t mean anything. I can easily assume that if a PS5 came out in February, that it would sell really well, I don’t think anyone would doubt that. ( Of course only if it was later on in the PS4s life cycle, its to early for one right now) It’s the new shiny better tech on the block. Come September, that will be the big game changer, that’s when Nintendo sells will drop unless they drop price/good bundle.

Ya see that’s one of my big gripes. They just said forget it to 3rd party developers. Having the option to take any 3rd party game I want on the go, would be a system seller. They should have just made a thicker more powerful console.

Let’s see what E3 has in store. Excited!

Yeah. Well, I’ve heard the Fifa rumor quite some time ago, it’s basically implying that the Switch can’t run Frostbite 3 and has to rely on an engine that was made for the 360/ps3. Basically the Switch version of the game will look nothing like the PS4/xb1 version and consequently any game made with Frostbite 3 (i.e. Battlefront 2, next Battlefield etc.) is most probably not coming to the Switch =/

And, as if any of that wasn’t enough, there is this:

Yeah, I’m guilty of that, but at the same time I did provide links to what an actual developer has stated and even more to the point the next Fifa game and what exactly is going to be presented on the Switch.

I did read about the ease of development, but how much of that will translate into the porting being as easy as they claim it is remains to be seen.

And still, I have yet to see a modern/new big triple A game being announced on the switch. And you don’t need to be a dev to realize that there will be problems when you have less than half the cores, half the ram, and far lower BW etc. than the competition … I don’t worry about acceptable, but if the big triple A (aka very graphically taxing games) will even appear on the switch i.e. Battlefront 2, RDR2, Cyberpunk 2077 etc. and to that point I posted the DF article about the next Fifa, sport games aren’t something I would call “very” taxing.

Btw I really hope Nintendo makes it back, I’m a bit frustrated because of what happened with the Wii U and the Wii and the lack of 3rd party and some good marketing, I do hope you don’t take this as an agressive stance towards you or Nintendo mate =)

Seasonal shopping accounts for 50% of annual sales for many industries, so selling well during the slow seasons does have a significant meaning. A lot of games are being released now for the PS4 because maybe it’s been out for 4 years and development has wrapped up. It was bound to get quality releases after 4 years on the market.

Hopefully were looking at a price drop this fall. Nintendo drops the price usually after six months. So if no price drop I’m sure we will see a good bundle. The sweet spot will be next Christmas. Good deal then and by then we will know for sure if the Switch will flop.

I’m not against the Switch either, I’m actually just upset at Nintendo for choosing this route. I expected so much more and was hyped after the teaser video for the Switch. The actual reveal was dis pointing to say the least.
What were you saying about Nintendo games with that link? Maybe that even games that are coming from 3rd party are going to be wonky? If the headset for the Switch they reveled today is any indication, I’d say so. Damn thing is very cumbersome.

That’s easily explained by the low Wii-U unit sells. Nintendo fans are clamoring for anything and hoping this works out. Plus it’s the new shiny thing. Also I’m not sure out of season really matters. Sony just released allot of games earlier this year and that’s not normal either.
