| naruball said: I just think it's fine to say that you don't like ninty exclusives and express your disappointment without being attacked or accused of downplaying the success of something. Part of the reason Sony and MS can't release AAA games as fast as Ninty is that the level of detail in the graphics that games like Uncharted have requires longer developing cycles. I don't see that as downplaying anything, while some simply assume that it is when someone points it out to them. |
Is that true though? Uncharted 2 took less than two years to develop after the development of Uncharted 1 and Uncharted 3 took less than two years after that. CoD and BF have realistic style graphics, but they can churn out games pretty easily. On the other hand, Skyward Sword was in development for about 3.5 years. Its obviously difficult to know exact dev times for games as many companies work on multiple projects at once, but I think it is misleading to say that Nintendo releases more games due to their graphical style. There is a lot more that comes into play...
