| Cloudman said: Ugh, personally I hate ports of old games as launch titles for a new console. It was terrible for the Wii U, and I would hate it again for the NX. Honestly, having some new games would be better than ports, but I feel that is for another discussion. The most successful port would maybe be a.... COD game maybe? Or GTA5? I dunno. My response to porting a existing game usually is "...why? I can get X game on Y or Z console already. Why would I get it again..?" I love most of the titles you list and would be appealing to me greatly, but this thread isn't about me, haha. Most people probably wouldn't care about these games... |
I agree. If it's an old port for a game that's already available for every other platform (especially PC) it seems pointless because anyone that wanted to play it already has. 3rd parties seem to do it for one of two reasons: to judge the difficulty in porting/development or to use it as an excuse not to support a platform when it inevitably gets low sales.
