It's future proofing. They haven't revealed the new console's name yet, but these Amiibo will still be on shelves after it releases.
Why is there so much headcanon that Nintendos licensing agreement for this game is some deal with beelzebubs name at the bottom? I don’t understand why everyone is so set on the licensing agreement being so stringent despite nobody being a lawyer and nobody seeing it
As someone who had nothing but ax to grind with the 4Kids dub and someone who was highly skeptical of Netflix adapting anything after Cowboy Bebop, I did not hate this.Spoilers: It's pretty good
The PS5 version runs at 60fps (and a solid one iirc), with considerably shorter load times, that’s a notable upgrade imo and I’m mostly wondering if 60fps is a thing for the Switch NG if the rumor is true
Putting aside the licensing thing(cause yeah, you're right, i'm not a lawyer so i don't know much about It) that still doesn't make sense to me. Why bother doing a definitive edition when you can just continue to sell the game + the dlcs ?
Because when the game is repackaged with all the DLC its percieved value increases. Maybe there are minor QoL changes or another mode like MK8D we don't know
I agree with most of this..
If it's true then i'm triple dipping again lol
But is that user trustworthy? Is there some kind of clue that tells us if he is a reliable guy or if he is not?
Bowser's render seems to be taken from SM3DWFollow-up on this since people seemed interested, here's a picture
Cheers Fami !
The user is not trustworthy. They have had some accurate information but a lot of bad info too, supposedly they just report every rumor they hear without much if any filtering.
Not with that face.
If it's relevant or considerable, it'll be in the OP.
I guess from my perspective, with the caveat that I don't have any legal background, is whether a Deluxe bundle would constitute a new SKU, and thus is it subject to having needed (re)negotiations with the involved companies (particularly in the case of an all inclusive package out of the figurative box); I wouldn't have expected this to occur 3-4 years ago when Pass 2 was still in progress, but as far as we've been told the team disbanded after Sora - whether Sakurai is required as chief negotiator this many years after the end of Pass 2, or if Nintendo is able to conduct renegotiation talks considering the original groundwork has already been done, I'm not too sure on.
Doesn't one of the DLSS modes take 720p all the way to 4K? If the PS4 runs FFVII-R at 1080p30 and Drake is roughly as capable as the PS4, I wouldn't be surprised if Drake could run it at 720p60 and DLSS it up to 4K.
Yeah, I trust you when you say
Seems like it's a matter of timed exclusivity there. Probably might follow the "first Playstation, then Epic Games Store, then everything else" pipeline for about a year each once again. I don't think there'd be many problems porting the game, however. Aside from say -- capacity. This is a game spanning two Blu-Rays this time, so some of the work might be compression if not Nintendo themselves being involved in the port if it has to come to that.
For everything other than sandwich shop recommendations
Actually the typical resolution for performance mode is 1512p, according to DF's pixel counts, though it is dynamic and the did count one instance where it dropped to 1152p.
I think the significance of Nintendo merging their handheld and console divisions means that its almost permanent commitment from their part. Which means that the Switch was not a one off system, Nintendo plans to continue making hybrid console systems in the future. Not one handheld and one home console as they did before the Switch.
technically, the merging doesn't mean that every console from now on has to be a hybrid system. They could do a handheld, they could do a home console. It just means that the development teams are making games for only one platform going forward. But yeah, it makes a lot of sense to continue with the hybrid format for now.
it's important to remember that 4K output incurs a higher cost than a lower resolution output. because of that, I'd assume that any 60fps mode would be 1080p/1440p output (from 540p/720p input). 30fps could either be 720p/1080p internally or 1080p/1440p native depending on headroom and/or the desire for "free" AA
Gamecube and Wii U may have done better than N64 but all of the aforementioned were examples of their console market not being as hot as their handheld market despite having the more robust team. Switch is technically carrying to the torch of consoles but its effectively a handheld and there's no need to split teams since they only need to develop for one console now. Being a handheld is still a feature but a choice on the user's part.
They don't have to but the way ARM has come a long way from powering the GBA's hardware to being able to run demos that run circles around the Wii U and DMP (the 3DS GPU provider) tech demo, it makes little to no sense to turn back from a business standpoint.
Remake was also on two discs.
Dirt cheap.
I have wondered myself about multiple profiles, perhaps all in the same power envelope, but specialized for different loads. Like one which favors the GPU over the CPU or vice versa
You're not wrong, but you're also simplifying too much
Developers don't write assembly code anymore - or at least, extremely rarely. They write in higher level languages and expect the compiler to take care of the rest. I run Chrome on my ARM based Mac and my x86 based Windows PC, and 90% of the code is the same between the two.
When you see a benchmark that runs on multiple architectures, what happens is you have high level code, usually based on something from the real world that is often used by consumers, that is then compiled with industry leading compilers for both arches, then run hundreds of times to determine performance. Geekbench, in fact, has a sub-benchmark based on Chrome. So the numbers there reflect how code really works out in the world, as opposed to some narrow, theoretical performance win of one arch over the other.
