Reminder that if Nintendo had gone third party instead of pooping out the turd that is the Switch we'd be able to play BotW at 1080p 60fps on the PS4 and 4K on the PC instead of 900p at a rock solid and cinematic 30fps with regular drops into the 20s.
There is literally NO benefit to the consumer for Nintendo to continue making its games for its own gimped consoles.
Ryan Scott
Reminder that not only is OP a big faggot as usual but one of the reasons that Nintendo makes their own console is so that they can make a console that fits the kind of games they want to make which means it would be just as garbage as it is now or worse if they had to work with other people's hardware creations.
Jose Wood
What features to the Switch allow for in BotW that could not be provided on PC/PS4/Xbone?
Noah Reyes
Rminder that if Nintendo goes thrid party you'r gonna see day 1 patcheed in front of fucking Mario.
Ayden Ortiz
That would really be ideal.
Mason Price
Are you implying Nintendo isn't as Jewish as other developers? Did you not see the launch event? We'll probably be seeing day 1 DLC on the Switch before it's all said and done.
Jeremiah Roberts
It'd also be brown, uninspired, and have too much influence from Nintendo's new overlord publishers. To the point of.
Hey want a new level in Mario? $14.99. Hey want a new boss in Zelda? $14.99. Hey do you like 20GB Day 1 Patches? Hey do like generic fantasy setting #3000? Good for you, Zelda is literally Skyrim, you're just named Link and there is a Princess named Zelda. She doesn't do anything though, there are also no Zora, Goron, Kokiri/Koroks, etc. Its just Skyrim, except the Dragon is a Boar and the Dragonborn has a name, Link. But look 1080p (which the Switch does, not the Wii U) and 60 fps (which the switch also does, not the Wii U), DOESN'T IT LOOK GORGEOUS THOUGH, SO REALISTIC! ENJOY!
Benjamin Barnes
We'd be able to play it on 900p on xbox one you mean?
Blake Wood
At this point in time, them going third party would actually be beneficial to their sales, their dev teams and their IPs in general.
Jason King
>this thread again
Landon Sanders
Except having the time for polish.
Of course the consumer never thinks of the development.
Look how FF XV had to be rushed on a lot of areas despite having so much developing time just cause they had to meet demand.
If Nintendo has ONE good thing out of being independent is that there are less cooks spoiling the broth.
Kevin Ramirez
is this a circlejerk shitpost thread?
Connor Collins
>wanting every console to be a boring locked PC
Oliver Cooper
but user, the switch doesnt need to be powerful, it actually has good exclusive games. im ok with them removing features like voice chat, internet browser, miiverse, because its a home console for playing games. New IPs like ARMS will be a runaway hit and there is already talk in the competitive scene about adding it to EVO for tournaments.The less features mean they are only focused on hardcore gaming experiences, that sounds like a pretty sweet deal to me
Nicholas Roberts
>Wanting publishers to fuck them in the ass.
The possibilities of a new Metroid would be even less if they ahd to deal with that shit.
Ian Wood
Reminder that Nintendo doesn't care about Western audiences besides taking their money.
As if they'd ever put their games on filthy gaijin platforms like the PC or Xbone.
Josiah Hernandez
Reminder that Nintendo would rather die as a company than ever license their IPs to other consoles again. Better save up that $350 bucks for Snoozefest of the Wild, Sonypal.
Thomas Peterson
Why would they need a publisher? Why would that publisher not let Nintendo do what they wanted? That's stupid.
Jose James
Sonyggers always talk about how nintendo games are all shovelware or uninspired rehashes. Then they go on to say Nintendo should go third party so they can play the games on the ps4. This is literally a symptom of severe autism.
Brandon Cox
Hey thanks, I will buy BotW. I'll enjoy it like I did TW3 and XV. BB was a pretty fun game too, Mario Odyssey will likely be fun too.
Remember video games user, remember when you just liked video games instead of giving a shit about who makes said video games? Remember dammit!
Joseph Nguyen
>okay sure Nintendo, we'll let you take as long as you like on your cool new Zelda Skyrim-like, it's not like the fucking Christmas season is coming up or anything and we desparately need to push more PS4s to beat those fucks over at Apple or anything
John Bailey
But you will be easily able to emulate the game on PC, instead of having to play it on another shitty console.
Cooper Bell
If Nintendo went third party ( except for Ds) It would be much better of.
NO bullshit Research and development cost for a new console that sells like shit
No bullshit marketing cost for a console that sells like shit
No price cuts to consoles that sell like shit
They can still make the games they want if they went third party. With all the money saved, they can make more games at a faster rate.
Brandon Martinez
PS4? 1080p? 60fps? I don't think I have seen those three things together.
Aaron Wood
Also people will more inclined to buy Nintendo games because now it's on a console/Pc they already own, has a shit ton of other games real online support, no gimmicks etc
Blake Wilson
>PS4 >60fps
Choose one
Jaxon Cooper
Because despite publishing their own games, they still need to pass approval by Xbox and Sony executives.
The former speacially is super petty on what goes into tis console and are always the one that fuck thigns up because of it. Remember if you want your game in Xbox you have to make it so your game, despite being 100% done, can't realease before xbox.
the Ubisoft people learned that the hard way.
Easton Richardson
PS4 has plenty of 1080p/60 titles. Wii U has 1
Bentley Lee
Please buy Zelda, it has online multiplayer. Now you too can play Deathmatch as different colored Links! And then Zelda was never made with single-player again because everyone just played online.
Hunter Butler
>ps4 >60 fps Pick one, retard
Sebastian Perry
How online support for Mario pParty ,Mario Golf , Mario tennis, Pokemon etc
Ryan Wright
And they're all high reflex games like FPS/racing/fighting. LoZ on PS4 would be given the same treatment as Uncharted, Bloodborne and H0D: a "cinematic" 30 frames per second.
Ian Reed
Except i'm going to be able to play it on PC 4K 60fps?
Ian Adams
>we'd be able to play BotW at 1080p 60fps
I mean, we can do that on PC fairly soon anyways.
Evan Barnes
I'd legit buy Zelda if it was on PC.
I ain't ever gonna get a Nintendo console unless it gets 90% of all the console only multiplats/exclusives.
Gabriel Reyes
Who else remembers another Zelda game before BotW? There has to be SOMEONE on Sup Forums who does.
David Morris
I mean, what would change if Nintendo does go 3rd party? They'd instantly be the one of the most prestigious 3rd party ever, and their output wouldn't change all that much.
Bentley Hall
>all these acronyms >>>/reddit/
Robert Torres
>There is literally NO benefit to the consumer >Get to play Zelda anywhere I want
Pick one
Adam Powell
Not him, but are you functionally retarded?
Christian Price

Jaxson Campbell
Seeing a trend with all these anti-Nintendo threads.
>Muh Graphics >Muh Price
If you want to play Nintendo games, got to buy Nintendo hardware, don't like it? Then shut up and go wait with the poorfags and their CEMU.
Jeremiah Powell
I'm jelly that my console of preference doesn't have the games i want, the thread.
Luis Richardson
Instead of trying to get the "Nintendo tax" as low as possible so their platform gets into as many hands as it can, it seems Nintendo decided to maximize profit from their existing audience and will try to utilize a marketing campaign to reach other people. Good luck with that.
Landon Garcia
Reminder that if they don't have the full controle on the production and hardware, and if they have to pay royalties to Sony or any other, hardware companies, they have absolutely no reason to maintain their evergreen strategy.
If you want games made by Nintendo at its best, you better not think that less than a 20% revenue on each copy will be enough. Especially for games that took 5 years to make. If Nintendo ever gives up on the hardware, they will only use their mascots the same way Sega does nowadays. The image will be there, not the quality.
That's a monkey paw wish user.
Eli Nelson
Fun gameplay.
Nathan Russell
Where have I heard that before? >I mean, what would change if Sega does go 3rd party? They'd instantly be the one of the most prestigious 3rd party ever, and their output wouldn't change all that much. LOL
Isaiah Richardson
nintendo making money obviously you dumb fuck
Elijah Jackson
mobile
Angel Anderson
Maybe you should realize that many of the people complaining about this are actually Nintendo fans or former Nintendo fans who just don't want to pay the Nintendo tax anymore to get the small handful of games on their systems they actually want to play.
Jace Cooper
Proof of this ever being said?
I'll give you all the time you need, because you won't ever be able to prove it.
Jason Rogers
will nintendo ever get actual third party support guys answer me and dont be rude
Logan Rivera
>t. underage idiot who doesn't remember what Sega used to be
Hunter James
>Proof of this ever being said? The proof is "being old enough to use this website."
Parker Morales
Japan has always been and will always think of itself as a toy company
Henry Jenkins
>Sup Forums >proof
And you've verified that you're retarded. Can't refute it, because I said it is so.
William Gray
They would get third party support, or at least much more of it, if it was relatively seamless to port games to their system without needing to go in and rework everything to make it run acceptably. They would need to have hardware similar in architecture and capabilities to the competition, which they could have done with an AMD APU centered around the budget cards AMD put out a while back.
Because third party games haven't been selling as well on Nintendo consoles, the effort third parties need to put in needs to be the absolute fucking minimum. Nintendo doesn't have anyone but themselves to blame, either. They have actively cultivated this distilled user base that only buys Nintendo games.
Josiah Collins
are you retarded?
MS and sony would cum buckets to have nintendo games on their consoles. they know just how well they do and how nintendo loves to deliver quality.
they would not even dare ask nintendo to change a single god damned thing in any of their games.
this may already take the title as "dumbest post of 2017".
Andrew Long
>Reminder that if Nintendo had gone third party >we'd be able to play BotW at 1080p 60fps on the PS4 and 4K on the PC >on the PC >PS4 Why did you contradict yourself?
Ryan Watson
>Sonyggers now begging for Nintendo games
That was a quick switch from shitting on Nintendo just earlier.
Luke Robinson
Sega was also in a much worse situation than Nintendo. Nintendo could be as big, or even bigger, than Bamco is right now if they played their cards right.
Brody Lee
Good games + better hardware > Good games held back by even worse hardware
Isaiah Ramirez
>They can still make the games they want if they went third party. With all the money saved, they can make more games at a faster rate. That's not how it works user. It's not because you have money and hire more people that you'll make games faster, AND maintain the quality. Big development teams is why Bioshock Infinite was shit. Just read about it.
If you have more developpers studios you also have less control on the output.
Asher Powell
Nintendo would literally. LITERALLY make 10x more money if they released that game on all platforms.
Zachary Thompson
>MS and sony would cum buckets to have nintendo games on their consoles That's quite the contrary. They would negociate each game release date. >You want to release a Mario for Christmas? Too bad Little Big Planet is already planned for these holidays. >You want to release a new metroid? Why? We already have Halo. MS and Sony would get less money than with their first party games. In term of calendars, they would be obviously very biased.
Joseph Smith
(You)
Jayden Ortiz
>>You want to release a Mario for Christmas? Too bad Little Big Planet is already planned for these holidays. That would imply that Sony gives enough of a fuck about LBP to tell Nintendo to change their releases. If anything, Sony would take advantage of it. They know that they don't really have any "kiddie" franchises, so they would suck Nintendo's smegma covered dick to get PS exclusive content on release.
As for Halo/Metroid, one is very clearly MP focused while the other is seemingly SP focused. Totally different audiences.
Nolan James
You don't understand how it works. Sony wants larger cuts than Nintendo would provide. If it clashes in any way with the games they developp, they would negociate the release dates. Nintendo has plenty of IPs that would clash with Sony's ones, because a good part of Sony's games were developped to simulate Nintendo games.
Wipeout and F-Zero on PS4 for example wouldn't do well and would result in less sales for both.
Exclusivity makes diversity possible. Why would Sony need other platformers if every Mario things sells way more than anything they put out?
