Depends, the faves that are made purely for it in mind are great in my opinion. Animal Crossing, mario odyssey and wonder and the like. All look great and run great.
I agree, but they will undoubtedly be able to do more with more capable hardware. I was also disappointed by the switch’s relative lack of gimmicks beyond its hybrid nature. I miss streetpass, Miiverse, etc. I hope they can get back to some of that on the next gen hardware.
I'm kinda glad it's devoid of gimmicks. A lot of them felt like it was just Nintendo was putting them in there for the sake of having gimmicks.
I do really miss dual screen gaming though. The assymetrical stuff that the wii u did was A tier and its not been replicated anywhere without the need of a second independent device. Also Mass Effect 3 on the wii u was the best version because of the gamepad. It was great not only having a map at all times but also being able to issue commands without having to go into that wheel menu that slowed the game down.
Oh man this just isn't for me, I hate how gimmicky everything Nintendo touches is.
A handheld that can play real 3D games was a hell of a selling point. It basically single handedly made the Steam Deck happen.
They also have ring fit and labo.
I also agree. I hope the really blow it out of the water with both power and bringing back some of that ol' nintendo charm. Switch feels very lonely with how clinical it is.
I mean they had Labo, but they kinda did it half heartedly, instead of creating actual accessories. Being made of cardboard was kind of a shame.
I liked the idea, but it was expensive for what it was even if technically it was the right price for the parts cause it wasn't just any old standard cardboard. I do think they should've kept going with it though
Weren't there some troubles with Zelda? I think BOTW? The hardware wasn't capable enough and it got all choppy in some parts of the world.
Yeah it got pretty bad. Don't get me wrong, it's amazing that totk and botw runs as well as it does, but I consider it a tragedy that neither game is allowed to run at it's full potential.
Botw was a wii u game that's why. Both versions have different pros and cons performance wise and i think that's because of the change of scope and systems and whatnot so i don't think that's a fair example. And because of that i think it also extends to totk somewhat since it's building on top of that already slightly shoddy foundation
What the hell? That's a game published and developed by Nintendo for a platform created by Nintendo. There literally can't be anything more fair. Witcher 3 runs better on Switch than a 1st party game.
TOTK is not only 1st party game, it's also made for Switch only, so even your weird argument doesn't hold.
Seriously, stop fanboying so much, this is ridiculous.
The wii u in some ways was more powerful than the switch is what I was saying. And because BOTW was initially a Wii U game (the switch game being a port) and it was intended to push the wii u to the absolute limits at the time. TOTK is just using the exact same engine as BOTW, even though TOTK is a game solely designed for the Switch, it's still using a lot of code that was initially intended for the Wii U.
BOTW and TOTK are more comparable to the third party games being pared down to fit on such a small device after being made for much more powerful hardware initially, like the Witcher 3 and whatnot.
And even though Witcher 3 does run really well. Still looks like it's covered in vaseline compared to its other console versions.
