The video game industry is no different than most industries in life. If you are in sports you want to be competiting at the highest level against the best competition. If you are a developer you rather be pushing the cutting edge of the tech than trying to squeeze out left over juice out of a used lemon. Thats the issue Nintendo is running into is young talented developers want to work on the Uncharteds of the world and not the [insert many behind the times Nintendo IPs]. 

And why to be on the highest level of competition you need only better cutting edge tecnology? why is that not decided by the quality of the gameplay, the creativity of the concepts, the skill to make great levle design etc? Because that needs actual talent, passion, soul and many companies want just tons of money without risk, they make the games shinier and than the rest and that's it. This is not a sport, this is not about numbers only, videogames are closer to art but they can be heavily restrained by corporative interests and often valorated as just technology when they are more.

Post like this always make my eyes roll. Play more genres maybe?

 

Do you think ppl would prefer 30fps over 60fps for fighting game?

Do you think ppl would prefer horrible physic over real-life physic for racing simulator?

Or lower fps for tactical shooter, and every single sport game?

People demand those things!

 

It's funny you keep criticizing cutting edge technology when your favorite company keeps boasting abt their 3d screen and new switch vibrator. A cutting edge technology which most ppl dont even use.

 

I'm just gon restate what some ppl here have been saying. Better hardware doesnt limit creativity. It's like people forget stardew valley, minecraft, binding of isaac, undertale were firstly developed for the most powerful hardware in the world
