Dark Souls is coming to the Switch

Maybe Nintendo chose a tablet cause they know being able to play games on the go appeals to a wide audience of hardcore and casual gamers alike, and that way they aren't competing in the same space as pc, which neither they nor ps4 and Xbox have a chance against. Also cause their handhelds have been extremely successful. Seems like they're making their system versatile, while also bending it towards their core audience and listening to feedback through purchase history. Almost seems like a good thing when I put it that way.
I'm more of a your glass is too damn big. Get a smaller glass.
its not that i dont like them, its when you see nintendo again years later getting titles it failed to get.
its the fanboys that blindly defend them, yet given the chance they (and have done) slated the other systems for getting shitty remasters..... after already getting the titles you never had.
it isnt about graphics as such, its about being cheap and using gimmicks, so a fanboy wants to claim the switch concept and features are not just gimmicks to make its shit sell, its not like they havent been relying on gimmicks following the cube, which again since nintendo keep lacking said games.
its the fanboys that keep claiming that nintendo are not a company that receive old games years later, they refuse to see the reason why they never had said games in the first place.
so yes, nintendo going the tablet route again, is the reason why you will never get todays games, sorry guys maybe in 3 years time you'll get them, when everyone else has been there and done that.
I guess you all love getting to play games for the first time..... 7 years later.
How do you make it sound like a bad thing the Wii didn't get dark souls and now from is bringing the remaster to switch? Would you prefer from chose to skip switch since it wasn't on the wii?

Bro being portable isn't a gimmick. You never claimed the gameboy or psp were gimmicks did you? And I played dark souls years ago. This version coming to switch is superior to the version I own on pc. Lmfao.

no because the vita is not and never had been marketed as a home console.
see again a fanboy twists a logic to suite their deluded vision.
the whole hybrid is one of the switches gimmicks, WOW we can play a console game on the go, or using its shit clunky plastic crap...... makes the system sound more impressive.
thanks for this, a home console again with shit hardware and cheap.
i have said in the past as a portable only console it would rock, no other portable game console can do this, but its not just that is it..... its a home console and for this it is another inferior console that will only dream of getting anything of today to play, so from the start you are limited to say lets buy XYZ for nintendo, because devs will not try port something, hence why said games always get ported when nintendo finally catch up, but still behind.
Love false information, there are more than two or three and sorry but shrines are never optional if you set out to complete the entire game, saying that you could be right also as nothing in the game is actually required as long as you have enough hearts the final ganon battle was a pile of piss.
all i will say is at least you get to enjoy games of 2011 finally hitting nintendo
- Fanboy isn't necessarily a bad thing, no matter how many time you copy paste it. People can be fanboy because they like Nintendo IPs, you don't "have" to like everything they do to be a fanboy.
- I've had Dark Souls on PS3 and PC, DS2 on PC and PS4, DS3 on PC and PS4. And I'll gladly buy DS1 on Switch for that "gimmick" reason. Your whole argumentation that people playing on Nintendo products miss out on games is flawed for so many reasons. You assume these people don't play on anything else, you assume that they will be like you and be toxic to competitors. But most players are more mature than that.
- Nobody claims Nintendo isn't receiving games later, you're spamming it like it's the graal of your argumentation, but nobody is denying it, just like nobody deny that Nintendo consoles are weaker technically. You're simply unable to see that it doesn't matter for a lot of people, and loop back on that same "fanboy" non argument.
- If I want today's games, I have my 1080GTX or a ps4. But I want Odyssey too, so I have a switch. If I want Dark Souls when im visiting my parents, I get it on switch.
I really don't get what's so hard to understand. Live and let live.

because the switch will not be the remaster like the other systems, it will be like a ps3 port same as la niore, same as other ports of same titles are inferior yet cost more.
still, i can get why you all defend the shit out of it, its a similar blood n guts, gore type game you all slated back then, ironically you all love it 7 years later...... because its coming to nintendo.
all i want is something thats new, something i didnt and dont already own, but fat chances of that and ask yourself why that is!

You're really so dense.. It's not because "it's Nintendo" you dunce. It's Dark Souls on the go. Pay attention.
Your retort will be game streaming which is infinitely inferior to playing natively.
Ive yet to see an argument that heavily states or implies "it's Nintendo". That's just something you concocted in that head of yours. Why? I have no friggin clue. People love the Switch for what it is. You have an issue with it. You really don't have to hang around the Switch section. You choose to. You choose to intoxicate the forums with some fairly ignorant and pompous drivel when the reality is that you can do something productive.

its makes people sound like a fanboy when they shove their heads up their arses, instantly refuse to see nintendo for what they are, contradict said games when they dont get them and defend nintendo claiming best first party (yet its the same titles basically over and over), then see them here now loving the same shit they slated years ago.
you find fanboys are the type that refuse to admit and accept the #1 reason to why nintendo never get these said games first time when its new.
now that makes perfect sense, yet im confident another fanboy will sway it, spin it to their deluded point of view which in an attempt to deny the actual reasons and defend them.
all i will say again is, enjoy the moment that nintendo again are getting the third party support it lacked years ago, do not be fooled into thinking this is nintendo actually improving its third party support...... its not the first time we have seen them port old titles during the first year and it wont be the last, taking the past 2 consoles it will soon drop off.
so kindly all enjoy the games of 2011 on your switch, must be fun......

remind me why didnt Dark Souls come to nintendo in 2011?
who is dense, you blame the game dev because they have a time machine and jumped to 2018 and thought fuck me nintendo will release a hybrid, lets not support them with our current games, lets put them on hold and release them for the switch.
erm no, again, why did you not see these games when they first released, why didnt games like doom come out while nintendo had a console on the market....
you dont get it do you? we do not deny the switch is inferior no one is, we do not deny the game is old ffs.
i will gadly buy shadow of the colossus remake on my ps4 even tough it was released on ps2 and remastered on ps3.
When people like a game they dont mind having more copys and play them on diferent consoles at all, its a way to replay a beloved game on another system looking abit better theres no more to it.
Nintendo if they wanted could make the switch much stroger with a single update just make the cpu and gpu go normal speed isntead of underclocked to save batery and you would get a switch with minimum 50% more power, but you would kill the batery and the main point the switch is actualy selling is becuase people like to play their games on the Go.
i know when i go to my grandma or my uncle i always take my switch with me to play for abit, its satisfyind, that and playing on the bed lying down(that was my favorite thing on wiiu gamepad xD).
People that buy the switch buy it becuase it can be portable and nintendo exclusive games(doesnt matter if you dont like them manny people do), they dont buy it becuase they think its a ps4 portable console that cant even be a thing realistic speaking, portable devices are always much weaker than noone portable ones because of batery reliance and overheating.
The gimmiky that you speak off is what will make the switch outsell the wiiu lifetime sales in under a year.
Also portable is everything but a gimmiky, the joycons motion thing yes its a gimmky, the gyro yes,the microphones and all that crap and amiibos sure as hell can be, nowa feature of a console to be portable is everything but a gimmiky.
False. the switch version is the remaster. youre objectively wrong. it features the remastered textures, 1080p resolution, and fewer frame drops. Im not a fan boy, i have sony, nintendo and microsoft systems and a pc. The switch, however it is marketed, is a portable system that has an hdmi out. thats a fact. if you disagree you are wrong. It is literally a portable system that you can output to a tv.
But it does have the tablet concept.
It has a screen. It runs off of battery. It needs a charger.
Just like a Vita, or a 3DS, or a Game Gear for Christ's sake.
Are you completely thick, or do you simply ignore this fact, THE MAIN SELLING POINT, simply because your arguments all completely fail if you don't.
PSP had a TV output, did that make it an underpowered console at the time too?
Why did Wii U fail, because it was an underpowered home console.
Why is Switch such a massive hit, because it's a powerfull portable console.
Ignoring this fact doesn't make you right, it doesn't support your argument, it makes you damn stupid.
If you were trying to make this argument in any kind of academia past GCSE you would get an immediate fail, simply because you have ignored and discounted a counter argument simply to be correct. That's not how an analytic argument works pal, unless you're 14.

Oh the irony
You realise ofc that people have been playing games on the go since the LCD era, or even since the Game Boy.
If you don't like gaming in the go why do you post in the Vita section so much then, moron.
wow all these quotes to deny the point made.
again, enjoy these old games what you didnt get when it was first released.
again, maybe todays games you will get to enjoy in 2020!

Oh it's fine, we enjoyed those games when they released, mainly due to the fact we don't give a toss about fanboy brand loyalty and just buy the games and systems we see personal satisfaction in.
Hmm nah we'll also be enjoying those now too, seeing as we can afford to own more than one console at a time.
That's funny I seem to remember playing dark souls years ago. And I remember it being limited to a non mobile system with bad texture resolution and 1080p. Almost seems like this version is an improvement rather than a straight port of a game I PLAYER YEARS AGO. Your whole argument revolves around the idea you can't own more than one system, and ignores the fact for 3rd party games, getting them on any console is bad if you own a pc.
actually my point is that the switch will not be the same remaster version that the other consoles are getting
my point is, it will be a beefed up port of the PS3/360 version, noted problem of hardware limitations, why switch ports look crap in comparison, noted that even R* was not able to release the same remaster that the PS4/XBX1 received, it was built up of the PS3/360 versions but with controls based on the JoyCons.
my point again is that the reasons to why you never get the option to play these games when they're first released.
so as said before, maybe you will get to enjoy todays games in 2020.
Can you show me where you're seeing that the switch version is the 360 version? What fromsoft said is that it's the same as the ps4 version but at 30 fps so if that's not true they're looking to be in trouble for false marketing. Also stop saying I can't play third party titles. I can play literally any game released that isn't a vita or xbone exclusive (ya right xbone exclusives).
that quote makes no sense at all.
from someone like me who owns all systems and points out that nintendo lack these titles when theyre new.
So when a new games comes out, you have plenty of games to play on PS/XBX and think I know id like the option to play said game on Nintendo because i havent had anything new for a while or have completed what games i own.....
but you dont get that option until nintendo release a new system with better hardware.
again makes no sense, as i own all systems you seem to fail to understand the point, again when a game is new such as this, you never had the option to buy it on a nintendo console did you.
