Not that long. But you say it as if refusing to consume low fidelity media is a bad thing.

When that means to put superficial values above everything, of course, in gaming the important thing is games, the more mainstream this market becomes the souless it is, now people is so damn obsessed with numbers and technical details that is just depressive. We have to buy the 4k photorrealistic game with subsurface scattering  and shitty gameplay instead of the fun and brilliantly designed one because is just 720p? Is that your idea of making gaming advance? I think you are deeply wrong.

The correct advancement would be to stop treating as if visual fidelity and gameplay are mutually exclusive things. Bad games don't suck because of great graphics and bad looking games aren't great because of bad graphics. I think it is in our right to demand both at the same time. There are plenty examples to boot.

Saying a bad looking game is better because of gameplay is just as wrong as saying a bad game is better because of better graphics. Because both failed half of their job in this audio-visual medium.

Having a powerful console that can deliver actually crisp graphics is nothing that would hinder Nintendo's creativity.
