| Cubedramirez said: Why Nintendo has the right concept. Create a system which allows high end games but reduced cost to encourage development from cash strapped companies or indies. I feel like I was the only person who felt completely ok with this last gen in terms of graphics and physics. The Wii U raises the bar but keeps the cost down. |
Exactly how does Wii U keep the costs down??? By not requiring as many resources to max it out? Who says you have to max out a system's capability? PS4 and 360 have indie games that cost barely anything as well. If I'm not mistaken, sony and M$ have been pushing those a lot too. Resource use is up to the developer. Power just removes restrictions.
It's up to said developer to use as much as they're comfortable with. PCs have been very powerful for years, yet not many games tried to be crysis 1 for good reason. If the industry died, it will be because of mismanagement not because consoles got a boost in power. Spending outside your means has always been a staple of poor financial decisions. To suggest otherwise is kind of ridiculous.
