Which is why the Nintendo Switch got games like Monster Hunter Rise, Dragon Quest XI Definitive and SMT V before all the other platforms.
The switch has plenty of games, if you don't like them, that's fair, but please stop derailing a thread a persona rumour by simply hating nintendo. As for DLC, most first party games barely even have it.
Anyway, it's pretty disappointing they're releasing the Portable version rather than the FES one.
Would be interesting in buying FES for any of those platforms, for portable I'll stick with the PSP version.
Dragon Quest XI which released originally when..... so yea the switch gets another old title ported (it was already released on PS4 in 2017).
Shin Megami Tensei V - appears to be a nintendo switch exclusive, well done batman that argument is like saying nintendo got Zelda before any other platform
Monster Hunter Rise was released first for nintendo, then followed to microsoft few months later, but this one is the only one you could use as a counter, but ignoring the fact the microsoft version will be the superior version - so yea, if this was a title I would be into, i would rather wait to get the superior version rather than wait months for nintendo to get the inferior version
The switch has plenty of games, yes that I did state, but 99.9% of them are from the past gen consoles, yup, games that I already own, so what incentive is there for me to go out and rebuy them, as for the fan defence of it been portable, I haven't even seen a single person since the switch release, playing the console sat on a bus/train.
So if likely people do what most do, take their console to some ones house to play, well i could do exactly that with my other consoles (though I chose not to), I have them all emulated on my laptop if I were that desperate to play games when I leave my house.
Your last statement is exactly the problem, I would rather see todays games, not all the old crap they lacked when it first came out.
But that's nintendo for you, they focus more on releasing old cheap hardware with some BS gimmick to make it sell like hot cakes, they only care about re releasing its same old titles that are pretty much the same crap recycled.
They know that if they don't provide the hardware, then the devs cant and wont support them with its new and current titles because it would cost more to have a team make a version dedicated for nintendo and in return its sales never cover the cost that it would be to produce a dedicated version rather than simply porting it over.
This is them controlling its market to ensure its titles get better sales, when they don't have todays new titles to compete with, clearly the fans will buy nintendo titles if they cant buy todays new titles.
And even the switch nintendo couldn't be arsed with it, they have literally ported everything they can from its failure Wii U (reminder why did the Wii U fail......) and to even think BOTW (which clearly was given to fan critics) is a pathetic game considering we have not had a new zelda console title since Skyward Sword (which the switch got an annoying port).
And what's this, BOTW2 is pretty much because after they released the first pile of crap with nothing really to do but run aimlessly doing repetitive shrines and a flawed battle system. They then had far too much actual content they should have included in the game, they released some as DLC, but they admitted that all of this as DLC would have been too much, so they release it as a new title......
Take Mario Kart, just another port with nothing new, but wait a second, what have nintendo gone and done, provide you new content that you would expect when buying a new game, but they release it as DLC. Would you not rather see nintendo release these new tracks as a new title rather than port something you already own then charge you more?
Even its premium online service is a joke, what's this, more old stuff, you only get to play what nintendo let you play, where as you can emulate anything you like and fact is, nintendo did a very crap job at trying to emulate its own consoles, funny that these "hackers" they love to tackle with their legal team are the ones that have already made near perfect emulators of their consoles.
I used to be a fan of nintendo, I miss the days when they used to get the same games as the other systems, I remember when they used to get the superior version, but since the N64, that is when nintendo started to decline and then focused more on making cheaper consoles with gimmicks and over time the number of nintendo games I own for said console is rapidly declined compared to the other systems.
I can bet yet again, nintendo will soon announce the switch to become its portable console (replacing the already dead 3DS) and they will have to launch a new console if they're to think they can keep up with the new gen consoles because the switch cant even run BOTW without slowdown issues (Still) and watch it be another last gen subpar console with some new bs gimmick.
Watch nintendo again promise better third party support, but what that really means is we will finally get all the great titles we lacked - yet again. But they will make sure that its hardware is not capable of running next gen games the same as the other systems, it will again get inferior ports if they are to support it, it wont have hardware that will outperform the other systems.
If ninetndo had todays games that I want to play when its new, like they used to do, then I wouldnt have a problem, it would be like to good old days.
But fact is, its not, I dont see the point in buying a new console to play old games that I already own.
