Why does everyone think that if Nintendo develops for any other platform that their whole development process will change and they will suddenly produce lesser games? What is that based on? Are Nintendo developers so fragile and scared that they can't develop on hardware that does not have a Nintendo logo on it? Was there a single good game on the Wii U that would've been worse without the Gamepad? Hint: No there wasn't. Every single critically acclaimed Nintendo game would've just been as well received if it was on any other console. The "games build around hardware" bullshit is just so that people keep buying the console without questioning their shitty track records when it comes to current technology. People like you make it very easy for them to keep raking in millions by just producing cheap hardware while everyone else is killing themselves to deliver cutting edge hardware for a low price. |
But the obvious thing here is that Nintendo have release to very high critical acclaim even without being on the best console specs available.
I mean, do you honestly believe other game developers would just close down shop if all consoles released were only just as powerful as Wii U? Hint: they wouldn't. If so then I'd say they are failures as game companies if flash is all they have to offer, and sone amazing 3rd party 3ds games prove my point. Power isn't the end all be all, It's just an excuse to allow companies to release hardware twice a gen and pressure the "power is king" minded to fork over the cash.
