I have to been forewarned. I honestly see Nintendo in a pinch for developing games next generation. The problem is, Nintendo has little/no experience with developing HD software. Sony and Microsoft, along with most third parties, do. This may lead several games to take well over 2 or 3 years to finish or possibly cancellings. The hopeful side of me believes that they will transition fairly fast but the slightly more realistic side of me says otherwise. Also with the lack of third party support, this might lead to something very risky. I hope they don't "Leave luck to heaven." <-- Yes that was very corny. Thoughts? |
Making something HD from standard def isn't difficult. It just requires additional time. However, you could technically put any Wii game in an HD resolution and call it HD -- a game like Super Mario Galaxy would still be one of the best looking HD games this generation if all you did was increase the resolution. In fact, it's one of the best looking games this generation in lowly 720x480.
Frankly, it will be easier for Nintendo to develop in HD because they tend to go so high quality already.
