My two most played systems by a large margin are Wii U and Vita.
I use my vita as an indie machine. Games like Fez, limbo, etc I've had a lot of fun with.
I am looking to indies but even a lot of indies are stuck in this weird retro gaming loop that qhile fun arent quite there yet.
I've spoken on this before but I thought it'd be interesting if indies developed games using xbox/dreamcast/gamecube esque wise and try there hand in that. That way it wouldnt be hugely cost prohibitive and they could introduce possibly new genres or even just new gameplay techniques. Because even though they seem stuck in this 2D retro world right now indies have introduced a few neat ideas.
Another thing is, what people arent taking into account is, in previous gens, in the firat year there was always huge games that set the tone.
Nobody is saying every system had 40 classics year one. But they had a game that set the bar. Mario 64 changed gaming. Halo changed FPS. Gta 3 changed open world.
This gen, what has set the tone? Sequels, rehashes, DLC, microtransactions now etc. Nobody is saying their hasnt been a few good games. But have they elevated or changed gaming for the better? No.
Thats the game I want. A game to set the bar and say THIS is next gen.
zone etc.
.
This will be the first time within a gen that new models will be released with dramatic performance upgrades.
