Rumor: Nintendo NX won’t compete with PS4 in terms of power...

It's not a bad gimmick like the Wii U gamepad tho. Solves their software drought problem. Console/handheld getting the same games like Smash 3DS/Wii U

if they put the same amount of damn effort in the console as the handheld shyt wouldnt be a issue i love their handhelds always something to play and so many games to choose from

their console games are good also but they could do so much better

See even longtime nintendo fans tired of their bullshyt...

Of course I am. I'm sick of buying Nintendo consoles and only getting Nintendo titles out of it because they almost intentionally alienate 3rd party developers. It'd be awesome to get these triple AAA third party titles like Arkham Knight, Fallout 4, GTAV, NBA2K, etc. on a Nintendo console. But their underwhelming specs, gimmicky controls, and outrageous royalty fees stop that from happening. And Nintendo's seeing that in their sales numbers. Nintendo of America needs to stage a fukking coup.

Even if they came up with the strongest hardware in the history of gaming that shyt's on PC specs for all eternity with the most standard controller know to man, you will never, ever see those types of AAAA third party games on a Nintendo console, ever. Third parties simply wont work with Nintendo now that they have options now. During the SNES and NES days third party publishers had no choice but to work and deal with Nintendo's policies because, who else were they gonna go to? Sega? Atari? SNK?
Damn near nobody owned those consoles with the exception of the Genesis and the SNES was king at the time so it was obvious what console was gonna get he most support. Nintendo had them by the balls until Sony stepped it.

When Sony announced the PlayStation, it was a third party dream since Sony gave them freedom to do what they wanted and since the N64 was difficult to develop for, along with it's decision to continue to use cartridges, the tide turned and third parties jumped ship.

And even if they somehow, by some divine miracle got the GTA's, the Fallouts, The Elder Scrolls, the 2K's, the Batman's, the Bioshocks', The Final Fantasy's. The hardest part of all is giving Nintendo console owners a reason to buy them where they can get another (potentially superior version) of that game elsewhere. The last time a third party game was best on a Nintendo console (at the time) was Resident Evil 4 on the Gamecube.

Bottom line is, big third party's will not come back, no matter what they do, it's a ship that has long sailed since the N64 and it's a reality that needs to be accepted by now.

they definitely heading down that route where they become a 3rd party publisher

You not going to see a Nintendo game on a Playstation. That PS monopoly will never happen in gaming.

 

[jackswstd]

Why the fukk do they even bother making consoles then?

 

[Brief Keef]

don't know man but they need to let Zelda go dark crazy action blood,gore guts executions and let that man finally speak

 

[yardman]

Imagine Nintendo been trolling while working on some ill shyt undercover.

They did the same shyt with the gamecube and wii. The Wii sold very well, so they seem to try and carve out their niche for more casual gamers and children.

 

[Doomsday]

ive said it before and i will say it again: the only successful nintendo console from this point on will have to be a hybrid handheld/console. it better be a DS that connects to the TV if they want to make money.

That's what I've been saying. The future for Nintendo is handheld with the option to play on a big screen.

 

[Slystallion]

Once Nintendo stops making consoles, we gon eat.
Mario and Zelda on a playstation

That didn't turn out like that for Sega we ended up with struggle sonic games for years...Sega going third party was not as euphoric as everyone expected it to be Sega was good at being innovative with consoles they just were too innovative and burned through money

 

[el_oh_el]

I also agree that it will be difficult for Nintendo to court third party devs even if they did upgrade their hardware..
I definitely believe that if they stay on this current trend they will be a third party dev by 2022 or so

 

[Liquid]

the sad thing is that if Nintendo would just drop hardware all together they would make a killing. This is not Sega, Sega fell off because all the people responsible for the classic games were no longer there.

the Wii U was a complete failure all around and it's a combination of the hardware and the name.

 

[MeachTheMonster]

Its not the hardware, its the games. If Mario was a must buy in 2015, the Wii u would be doing a lot better.

Nintendo needs new IP
