Forums - Gaming Discussion - Nintendo+PC = Heaven?

Yes, for me PC + Nintendo is enough.

Sony can be glad that - for some unknown reason - other Japanese companies put their games only on Nintendo handhelds, not on Nintendo consoles. If all Japanese games would go to Nintendo consoles as well, Sony would loose quite a few customers.

Mind me answering? I was a PC gamer too before. It was just a hassle. Games having to be troubleshooted (troubleshot?), regular upgrades. And desktops became redundant when I got a laptop.

Troubleshoot games? Have to disagree, that's not really an issue with a modern environment.
In-fact... Hilariously, there have been so many console games that have been broken on launch, regardless of console you buy. (Nintendo seems to have better Q&A IMHO.)

Regular Upgrades? Any decently equipped PC will last you years. Years.

You know that's not true. People will always be getting some issue or another. You're talking about modern environment - Crysis 2 (I think that was the version) launched but then at the beginning of the game, my character was not visible - no hand or gun. That's one example. Plenty of people have issues with games on Steam - their forums is full of that. I guess you're one of the lucky ones. I never had a game not play for me on console - 3 generations and counting now.

Years but definitely not a console generation - at least not if you spend less than $1,000 on the PC.

Crysis 2 launched 5 years ago, it's not representative of the PC today, Crysis 3 was a far better game at launch.
You should try playing a game from today on a modern system, running Windows 10: Anniversary with actual modern hardware.

The PC is constantly evolving, updating, improving every year and always has the latest technology and graphics techniques which are often PC on the first, console second.

Okay. Halo: Master Chief Collection had a non-functioning multiplayer component for a good 6 months.
The single player was plagued with crashes, glitches and other issues. It also took me a good 20 hours to install.

Skyrim PS3 had a multitude of issues, framerate drops, save bugs, crashes, you name it.
Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas were terribly shoddy games on the PS3 when they launched as well.

Battlefield 4 was an issue-plagued game from day 1, on every platform, console included.

Dead Island on the 360 I had vanishing inventory, crashes, quests wouldn't complete. I literally stopped playing it.

Let's not forget Asassins Creed Unity, Destiny with it's connection issues and bugs on launch, Red Dead Redemption was plagued with server issues, headless NPC's etc' and more.

There is a reason why games on consoles these days are dropping with multi-gigabyte patches day 1, so don't pretend your platform is immune to any and all issues, they aren't and the proof is in the pudding.

Maybe for some. But to me the exclusives on Sony and even Microsoft consoles are far superior to those available on Nintendo consoles. Plus I also prefer to play on consoles anyway, so PC only gets a place due to it`s exclusives, it`s inferior for multiplats in my eyes.

Oh and I find the whole refuse to play a game because it`s not on x platform thing pretty silly.

The reverse is true for me... 

I refuse to own a platform because there are certain games on it I despise and won't touch with a broom...

PC+PS4+Wii U is heaven. Exclusives are great however I simply cant survive on Nintendo IPs alone. I need my Bloodbornes, Uncharteds and Horizons.



I predict that the Wii U will sell a total of 18 million units in its lifetime. 

The NX will be a 900p machine

I miss some PS exclusives like Uncharted, but I'm pretty happy with my PC+Nintendo combo.

Add a 3DS in there and you have the real Gaming Heaven.

Im not much of a PC gamer guy, never was. So i prefer console, its all a matter if preference not fact and you know what? Thats ok!

So my combo is Sony my main and Nintendo my secondary. Usually i purchase playstation first and then the Nintendo console second but after how uninspiring and dissapointing the Wii U was for me i might skip to the NX if it looks promising.

However even though i dont PC game im still open to it, i play Overwatch and some indie games on my GFs PC here and there. So this whole "heaven" BS is silly.



It always has been.
