Has Take-Two ever published a game on a Nintendo console?

Lots of actually, even Wii U had one since 2K sports parent company is Take-Two.

So, one game for the Wii U, and how many for the Wii? I wouldn't call them a big supporter of Nintendo...



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

we don't know anything about the system so you can't say that Nintendo is not going to have third party games. Take Two knows more than us that's for sure, they don't need Nintendo, but, the ceo says that he's a believer, he said that two different times. Don't be so negative, or you know what, be negative, that way "you will say wow"

I am sure that Nintendo will have third party games, but they shouldn't be expected to come from the likes of Take Two, Bethesda and EA.

And really, I don't consider the lack of such games a negative thing, quite the opposite actually.

But you're in the minority actually. Most people would like 3rd party support. I for one would have loved for the NX to be a hybrid so I could take my Skyrim session with me where ever I went ^^

Now all Nintendo needs to do is to make us "believers"

This might surprise you. 40 games.

Lots and lots of sports games via 2k and a couple via rockstar. With a huge user base, even the bigger third parties follow ;)

We heard all this before with the Wii U. Most publishers are going to give a token effort and if Nintendo gets the NX to take off they'll all jump on board again with a mixture of decent games and shovelware like we seen with the Wii.

but why are whe expecting this???

I'd love to be proven wrong but I believe publishers see a 4th platform to develop for a hindrance.  Pc,  ps4, x1 and NX. In many cases the x1 version doesn't sell that well so adding an NX platform where that version of many games will sell even less isn't going to help.

So we've got Ubisoft suggesting it's a console for casual gamers, and we've got Take-Two suggesting they like it, and they only like core consoles with good specs. Two very contradictory statements.

A console for casual gamers doesnt exclude it from having solid hardware. There are tons of casual gamers on the PS4 for instance.

I am in the majority, it's just that the majority doesn't post on forums.

Really? Is that why Wii U is selling so well? Oh, wait, you're talking about the "casuals" again, aren't you? Yeah, they have moved on to mobiles and aren't coming back to consoles any time soon. Face it Rol, what made the Wii so successful won't work again. There is no new market for Nintendo to tap into this time around. OR do you have some secrets you're keeping from us?

It sounds as if they've published mostly "casual" games? In that case, I'm not at all encouraged by his statement that he's feeling pretty enthusiastic about the NX

@2 - i personally think it would be impossible for nintendo to develop a system that isn't at least as powerful as the original xbox one.  i mean,.. really old parts start to get more expensive not less.  the only problem with that is launching in 2017 MSony will be moving away from that standard in 1 year for scorpio and (imo) in 3 years for the next playstation.  that's not a very long shelf life.

But, Scorpio as far as we know, is supposed to support all Xbox One consoles so it's not really an entirely new console. While PS Neo is being touted as a premium PS4 with added VR support, etc. Not a new console. So the games, more or less, will remain the same. In retrospect, the Neo won't be the PS5 and the Scorpio isn't the Xbox Two for very different reasons but it doesn't effect how NX might recieve ports from either console/company.

Something tells me NX is going to do something that ensures its own shelf life without having to face a failure and quickly band together to make a new console. Something tells me that NX isn't your ordinary console.

first off --  wrong wrong wrong.  all vr we've seen so far is on the standard ps4.  no one has seen any vr on the neo yet.  the standard ps4 can do vr just fine.  it's is the scorpio that is being touted as adding VR support.  ..and speaking of scorpio we don't really know what ms is doing with that since they've released contradictory statements.

 

secondly, the roadmap i've seen for playstation has neo released this year as the "premium model" while support must include the regular old ps4 as the "base model".  in 3 years (after the regular old ps4 has been on the market for 6 years or an entire generation) the neo is demoted to the "base model" and trinity is introduced as the new "premium model".  a new half gen every 3 years.

i mean,. nintendo could do this schedule as well but it seems entirely unnintendo to follow that.
