@ItWasMeantToBe19 on his way shit talking about Prime 4 teaser.
Most people consider the gameplay and Story, I for one played Xenoblade Chronicles 3 and thought the art styles and graphics looked good, I think the story is one of the best in the series, I did not play Final Fantasy 16 and I still want to. If I had to compare the two I still say Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is the better game. Not everyone is going to head to head these games who are interested in them they are quite different audience from different games platforms. Not everyone owns both. That's also not consumers think.
All that would be relevant if it had any effect on sales. Does Nintendo have problem selling their consoles and games compared to PS and Xbox? No. So in what way is there a problem for Nintendo?
Well, that's where I think a lot of us expect the Switch 2 will help MP a boost in sales from new launch appeal. Again, Bomberman R was a series High and the gameplay can be replicated on the NES. Maybe the multiplayer would need the SNES, so you don't need anything high spec. Good gameplay, my friend.
I do think there's a difference in that Switch 2 has BC and there's thousands of games available for it day 1. Sure they won't be "optimized" but I bet you a significant number of games will have patches at launch.
I agree, but I think that as far as MP4 go, it will have a switch 1 and switch 2 logo. With Switch 2 as the primary marketing target.
Prime has been pretty consistently profitable, even when it's a shadow dropped high budget remaster.
Yikes. Employee databases especially Not Good
I kinda get what he is saying. I think the series had a lot growth. While metroid never truly a gap (except for 64). Prime was gone for almost two decades. The series did technical plateau and this is a triple A budget game. Even with the T239, if they have made any core changes visually, that would be different but it isn't. He felt like that should have change.
Nah nah nah, it makes total sense when you don't think about it.
It really isn't trolling if 3 million isn't enough to sell well. I am not saying that MP4 will do horrible but we have to remember that we are in an industry with ballooning budgets and where 3 million is under performing.
Luckily I blocked this guy some time ago, his statements always make me feel like I don't live in the same world as him.
You're not the troll, by the way.
Keep in mind that Metroid as a series does not have any mass market potential at this time, and Nintendo will not require the Metroid series to be mass marketed, just as Nintendo would have continued to put the Zelda series out if there was no BOTW, and even though Metroid is a legacy of Yokoi Gunpei, there is still a wider audience in North America so it will continue to be put out, and Nintendo does not require that all of their games have to hit a set profit margin at this time.
That would be true if Nintendo were not into building a console ecosystem dependant on getting as many different types of games as possible into the ecosystem. For example, the reason Nintendo funds Monolith Soft to make Xenoblade games is not because they get a gigantic return on investment from selling 2 million copies of a Xenoblade game, but because they diversify the content they provide in their ecosystem. The same is true for Metroid games.
Absolutely, that's what the Metroid series is worth to Nintendo right now.
@oldpuck Can you answer the question
they weren't talking about you, lol
if that lighting is done via RT, yes. the way RR is designed is that in reads the RT data passed to the DLSS algorithm. for Death Stranding, RR won't do much
I can't. There aren't enough games out there with RR to be sure what it's performance/quality trade offs are. RR is mostly deployed in path tracing contexts.
Where is your source on monolith soft employees having lower wages?
The conversations don't necessarily have to be explicitly tied to the Nintendo Switch's successor. But the conversations should be related to hardware and/or technology since that's the name of this thread.
I've amended my original post, but 100%. I've learned a lot about raytracing, CPUs, and technology development from many posts that aren't about the successor at all.
So what you're saying is that it didn't evolve. I don't think it is just gameplay.
And that's what I am expecting after seeing the trailer.
I believe so, I think this game will get the "Switch effect". I think this can go up to 10 million sold.
Ambient occlusion on objects, real time lighting, better shadows ((f needed).
I don't even know where this idea came from because there's clearly a misunderstanding here, mp4 officially started production after the 2019 reboot around 2020 after mpr was made, at which point drake hadn't even finalized the basic specs.
Well, let's say there is a cross gen version. How long would Retro knew?
Three things -
how is that a fair assumption? it restarted development in january 2019, before the switch 2 was being mapped out, and it was announced for the switch 1 on the systems launch year! nintendo doesn't just ditch a platform it announces a game for, they still put breath of the wild on the wii u for crying out loud
It's obviously not a question of whether they'll make a patch for the switch2 version, it's a question of whether or not mp4 has been developing for both switch1 and switch2 from the start, yet that's not realistic.
