They'll just have to have more loading screens :^)

>Literally none of current open world games can work with switch. i mean if you want to get really technical about it, zelda doesn't work on competitor's consoles either
Jaxon Miller
To be fair the Switch doesn't have joint VRAM and RAM like the PS4 amd XBO do. That 4gb is all available for the system and game, wheras the competition has 6.5 total available to the game that the devs have to split the difference on.
Jack Perry
Are you bored?
Daniel Cooper
sure, 4gb RAM is the Switch's issue, of course
Owen Sanchez
Drones won't understand what you are saying, they will just be like "I only buy Nintendo for the exclusive Nintendo games" Drones are pathetic
Thomas Harris
They can just lower the resolution and the texture quality
Kayden Reed
>that bait kek
isn't Odyssey a 2017 game though?
Jason Allen
Nice buzzword. No one buys Nintendo consoles expecting multiplats you mong. It's been that way since the fucking GameCube.
Xavier Adams
What games? If they make games specifically targeted for the hardware, they're still "next gen". What current games are nintendies clamouring on the switch? You're a consolewarring faggot.
Cutting the textures back by 1/2 on it's dimensions makes them 1/4 of the size, before factoring in things like compression.
I know this is some obvious bait though.
They all have a single cache, the reserve in those other devices is reserved for the OS, the Switch has 1GB reserved for it's OS, effectively it's more like 3GB of Ram vi 5.5 GB of Ram.
John Bailey
You're giving the Switch a bit too much credit. It wouldn't even be able to run Red Dead Redemption any better than the Xbox 360 version
Landon Watson
I run GTA5@ 1080/60fps, everything ultra, and only have 4GB of memory.
Christopher Reyes
>I know nothing about computers
Noah Evans
Is this something that people don't know? Switch couldn't even run PS4 and Xbone launch titles. Multiplats like Fifa and NBA are already getting gimped versions and it's obvious that if new next gen games are going to be released they are going to be shit versions. It's basically the Wii all over again, at least nintendo have their own games so they will do fine.
Joshua Martin

I know it's easy to copy and paste but if you want more (you)s you should really change the reply and image after every 2nd post.

ok
William Morales
no ur not ok with it your just lying on the interwebz

4GB ram > 8GB ram

>Skyrim is last gen game worked on 256,512 mb ram. Didn't Skyrim literally die on ps3 after you played for more than 10 hours?
Didn't it also run at 25fps?
Henry Ross
false
Thomas Clark

the issue is the piece of shit mobile hardware
Justin White

Cameron Hughes
>Literally none of current open world games can work with switch. Zelda, Skyrim, and Xenoblade seem to work fine
They were/are being released this year so they are current. >Current - happening or being used or done now.
Joseph Robinson
>Literally none of current open world games can work with switch.
Good thing the Switch arguably has the best open world game ever made I guess.
Tell me about all those Nintendo exclusives you'll be playing user?
Daniel Davis
>its another "Sup Forums knows nothing about technology" episode is this board just senile old men arguing about everything?
Nathan Brown
256,512(two hundred and fifty six thousand, five hundred and twelve)MB. 1024MB = 1GB 256,512 / 1024 = 250.5GB. My bad, I forgot it's a bit off.
Oliver Powell
He's ain't using that comma as a decimal separator.
AKA, merely pretending to be a retard, I guess.
Kevin Turner
Probably a German fag (in Germany commas are used in place of decimals)
Luke Richardson
Why would i worry about multiplats when i have an oc'ed I7 and a 1080 SC?
Zachary Anderson
This is a shitty thread. Let's clean it up!
Jayden Diaz
RAM is the least important part when it comes the graphical performance you fuckwad.
Mason Flores
It's common practice in finance as well.
$1,000,000 for example.
Adrian King
Why would you have an extra 0.512MB, though? When you're writing out a thousand, you'd write 1,000. If it's a million, you'd write 1,000,000. It splits things up a little to make it easier to read. If you type out 256512 then it takes a little longer to count properly.
Nathaniel Ortiz
you're a retarded aspie if you think that it's has any real relevance if a game like minecraft running on the switch is representative of modern open world games being able to run on the switch
switch can only runs last gen tier shit like skyrim
James Parker
It's another 'Sup Forums is salty as fuck about Nintendo's critical and commercial success' episode.
Ryan Cooper
Anyone got those webm's that compare Horizon and Breath of the Wild? "Next-gen" lol. It's the same gameplay with better lighting.
Lincoln Bell
>512MB vs 4GB of RAM >it wouldn't run any better Stop your retarded brand loyalism and look for the facts.
Thomas Cook
>Good thing the Switch arguably has the best open world game ever made I guess. (You)
Owen Smith

Colton Wright
Mario and Xenoblade are 2017 games.
Michael Gonzalez
>horizon >same gameplay without climbing, without physics, without AI, in a land of closed empty corridors linking small arenas full of monsters
Blake Johnson
And no attention to detail.
Kayden Wright
>lol i didn't read the thread!!! (You)
Jace Jenkins
In Germany you would use "." In place of the comma like in 1,000,000. It's so fucking retarded
Nicholas White
Do you people really need a Switch hate thread every couple of hours? What the hell
Thomas James
I think he means it's not really "next-gen," but rather just the same type of game we've been playing for years, but with improved graphics.
Ethan Ward
This.
Gameplay and graphics makes game "fun". But what really makes you love a game, are the little details.
Sebastian Long
4gb of ram is actually pretty fucking high for a tablet. And unlike PC or other consoles, it can actually break the OS on purpose to use all of it. You dumbasses would bitch about it being 400 dollars if it was a PC style 16 anyway.
Ryder Gomez
Shit, wanted to quote you two
Landon Lewis
I guess people who like the Switch just enjoy it and talk about the games. Most others don't really care. Then you get a few particularly vocal people who hate it and have to constantly shit all over it. The same goes for anything well known around here, really. I don't like to just claim that people have autism, but it's probably something similar. They just have to spend their time going on about something that doesn't even matter to them, rather than just doing something they'd enjoy more.
Brody Fisher
real issue is the 25.6GB/s bandwidth
William Young
What is a "next-gen game"?
Hunter Peterson
developers being able to realize their vision without any compromises, partially caused by piece of shit hardware
Michael Bailey
Good enough to have fun games instead of 3rd person cover shooters, that serve as engine showcases.
Levi Mitchell
So.....no game that isn't 2D?
Hudson Anderson
I don't get it. A world-wide shitty walking sim is a next-gen game and some well-made 2d-platformer is not? Fuck it then. I want a good gameplay and I want it now
Dylan Gonzalez
...
Charles Peterson
It's just a buzzword at this point, really. You could go back to any presentation of a game that has new features(AI, physics, much more advanced graphical features(like Doom 3's shadows back in the day, for example)) from before its release and say that it was "next-gen" at that point, but once the game or console is released then it clearly becomes technically "current-gen." People just love to use it to describe something that has good graphics or a mildly more 'advanced' something-or-other in it.
Samuel Wood
>Literally none of current open world games can work with switch. Depends on the game. GTA5, Fallout 4, and MGS5 could all work with modest tweaks. Witcher 3 would need some serious dev work, largely because the game doesn't like to scale certain things.
Just Cause 3 is just a mess all around and would have no shot.
Sebastian Ortiz
NinTendies and NinTendettes should be the first to go
Nicholas Richardson
Well, according to Aonuma, WiiU, not even Switch, was that console for ninty because it was powerful enough to make Zelda exactly as he envisioned it and not compromised by hardware.
Julian Ross
I never knew that I would grow to hate anti-nintendofags more than nintendofags. stop shitting up this board.
Hudson Collins
that's why it runs at buttery smooth 30fps...
Nathan Gray
Nintongo haha only lameo dweebs like whatever nintendiaperdoody craps out for the ninbogglers
Sebastian Harris
This, it's almost always a matter of optimization. GTAV is a big open world and it works fine on 360 and PS3, Alien Isolation is another game that comes to mind that looks incredibly good and works on 360 and PS3... then you have Shadow of Mordor which is smaller than GTA, looks worse than Alien, yet on old gen consoles it works like ass, looks like a blurry mess, has basically no FOV, runs in slow motion and even just navigating the menus requires minutes and minutes of loading screens, because the port was made by literal amateurs since WB didn't care
It's like Platinum said, "convince the publishers and we'll port Nier to the fucking SNES is necessary". The NBA game on Switch is the exact same as the other versions bar some graphical tweaks, they made it work. On the other hand some Who from FIFA made a vague statement about how the Switch couldn't handle their full yearly recycle. What am i supposed to believe, that the NBA devs employed dark magic to make their game work on the thing or that the FIFA ones are lazy hacks?
Hudson Kelly
lol
ok nvidia shield users
Landon Evans

Brayden Williams
Drones are pathetic. They sound exactly like Sonyqueers
Angel Howard
mb is actually megabits MB is megabytes
Dominic Adams
>On the other hand some Who from FIFA made a vague statement about how the Switch couldn't handle their full yearly recycle Frostbite is just an engine designed to look pretty first and everything else third.
Grayson Murphy
>ram How retarded are you.
Elijah Lopez
The switch forces developers to get creative, look at what they're doing with FF15, they're changing the whole artstyle to make the graphics not look objectively bad but "bad" enough to make it work on the switch. I don't think this is a bad thing
Camden Smith
user, the pocket edition isn't for the Switch
Josiah Kelly
Tabata said they are tinkering with the original game, not the mobile version. Plus mobile version has no controller support.
Camden Gutierrez
Isn't it ironic that Sonyqueers (of all """people""") are talking about inferior hardware.
The PedoStation4 is like a wristwatch compared to PC. So, shut the fuck up, you really have no place to be talking shit.
Easton Sanders
...
Oliver Cox
But it's not the pocket edition is my point
Oliver Walker
Yet another Sonyroach thread. Amazing!
Gavin Peterson
It probably fucking is, let's be real here
Jeremiah Young
Dev said its not.
Lucas Murphy
Well, yes, but this is one of those instances where it is justified. Smoothness sacrificed for gameplay, not for lens flares, unnecessary reflections and meme resolutions.
Hunter White
and the cause is shit hardware
Chase Ortiz
>Literally none of current open world games can work with switch. well, at least we get our own open-world games with shild-surfing, swordwaifus, and mindcontrolling T-Rexes
one word, cartrigdes
Aaron Kelly
BOTW is the definition of wasted potential.
Eli Howard
Just wait for them to announce the ""NEW"" Nintendo Switch with 8gb of RAM and the ability to use voice chat without a smartphone
