I think you're mistaken here, with all respect. In the link I provided in OP, Iwata mentions that he is ready to dish out resources for what he calls power games. Though Nintendo put the padlet as priority over graphics, it doesn't mean that graphics aren't a priority for them. Had the U not had a padlet, you can be sure the extra room for cost would have been put in processing power. Also, though you're correc that Nintendo need to dish out more games, we know that they are making use of strategic partnerships to satisfy that objective (which they can't do all on their own). Also, they are a manufacturer and need to make sure there is a solid game engine on their platform if none is built by a partner, it's a no-brainer. Not only that, we know that resources at Retro are being employed for tooling Nintendo internally for game development of advanced games (such as Zelda). So it's only logical to expect Nintendo to extend that service to its partners (and in the process pull the finger to the competitors who say things like the U can't handle Frostbite). |
Definitely logical to expect it, but I still can't see it actually happening. Don't let that get to ya though. My view is just one in billions and you can rub it in my face if you're right, keyword being "if" though hehe.
