[QUOTE="Taleweaver, post: 7090747, member: 237261"] I seriously doubt sony and microsoft will be rushing to make new consoles. This whole 'console war' thing was stupid generations ago, and has reached that limit last generation. You see, the thing that sells consoles are games. However, with each leap in console horsepower, the cost to create a game that fully utilises the potential go up, whereas the monetary expense for the audience go down (meaning: they both expect to pay roughly the same amount of money for a video game AND be able to resell it to others). It doesn't take a genius to see that this model can't go on, and with games that literally need to sell multiple millions of copies just to break even, the results are what they are today. Meaning: reboots that don't cost as much to develop, games that mimic other (successful) games and indie games that don't use the full potential to begin with. So...no. I don't expect much in terms of horsepower difference on consoles. In that aspect, it's just good news that nintendo doesn't try to keep up: AAA-studios have problems as it is to keep their balance positive. However, I agree with Veho that they most likely can't convince everyone that the switch is what the gamer needs this day and age. Let's see... -it's a very powerful tablet, but they don't even show fast browsing, streaming or video watching potential -AFAIK, developers barely know what the switch is capable of or what they'll have to do to port their apps to the switch from android or iOS. -They've made a partnership with nvidia, but it didn't include a clausule for the latter to not release a new shield...which they do (meaning: they'll have competition from their own hardware vendor) -third party support looks shit right out of the gate...even worse than before -the launch line-up is just a joke. On top of that, they don't include a 'tech demo' game with the price (and seeing how nintendoland didn't wow people enough for 2-screen play, there's no question that "HD rumble" thing is dead on arrival) -even though it effectively combines a console with a handheld, they show no signs of slowing down, let alone stop, 3DS production. Meaning: they'll be competing with their own handheld device as well -somewhat related to the latter: the switch doesn't have anything mobile-related. They should've ported pokemon go, but instead it doesn't even have streetpass or miiverse [/QUOTE]
