Forums - Gaming Discussion - Nier automata director wishes for PS VITA 2 or at least a smaller version of switch, which is a bit too big for him ( as a handheld console ) !

But... but... all the nintendo fans flamed me when i said it was too big and had poor battery life. Surely it was me that was wrong?! I must've paid this director to say these things. The hater! /rolleyes

PS vita 2 would be a hard sell, but if Nintendo doesn't come out with a sucessor to the 3DS, it is a great business opportunity for Sony. Might want to call it PSP2 though.

Yes you were wrong

Has this guy worked on a game for a portable...? I'm not to familiar with his works, aside from Nier.

Nothing for dedicated handhelds. Only a couple of ios games. Outside of that he has pretty much just worked on Arcade and console games. He is great at atory telling but a poor game designer. Why he needed Platinum since while Nier was functional it was broken as a game. Drakengard games play pretty much like shit. The arcade games he worked on he only worked on backgrounds. He is not a developer you go to for hardware input or game design. He's the guy you go to for a well written and fucked up story.

Thanks for the info, though now I'm not really sure what to make of this guy's comment now. It doesn't sound like he's going to start developing games for the Switch, or something like that.

I hear opinions about Switch size a lot- but personally I think its the perfect size for a comfortable position in the hands and a fairly good screen size. I hated the 3DS double screens, they were small and unpleasant to look at.

Also couldn't stand how the 3DS button layout felt in the hands.

the nice thing about the Switch is it actually does feel fairly similar to a traditional controller in the hands, despite being spread out width wise a bit.

System is not too heavy, very easy to get used to.

I don't get all of the people who claim its too big for portability. who seriously throws ANY handheld gaming system in their pockets? I mean the 3DS and Vita were not that much lighter than the Switch nor would they realistically be comfortable in the pocket, not to mention who wants their portable system to scraped to hell by throwing them in the pocket?

I'm always going to put a portable system in some sort of mini carrying case or bag so the Switch is perfect. The Special Edition carrying case is perfect for carrying around too, kind of like a mini purse.

Don't look that far into it. He's a bit eccentric. He rarely has a public appearence without his Emil mask on and always acting wierd.

What Sony should do is drop a PlayStation portable revision, one with 5g tech and ps now integration.... that and a hybrid ability to be a phone.....
