Please.

We had a whole thread dedicated to hate on cross gen ports and remasters on PS4 and XB1. Only 8th gen only games could be labelled as "new games" while cross gen games were "ports". Even the ones that released on PS4, PS3, XB1, and 360 simultaneously and the ones where PS4 and XB1 were the lead platforms.

I thought it was stupid back then and I think it is stupid now. I agree with OP. A game like Zelda BotW is a new game even though it releases on a last gen console simultaneously.

 

I don't want to derail the thread any further. I just hope that we'll learn from this. Don't shit on something just because it isn't from your favorite company. It's dumb.

Zelda BotW and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe look great. By the logic of some, the Switch versions shouldn't exist and I don't agree with that.

Don't worry. We tend to learn a lot.

The last couple of years we learned that

1. DLC is not totally evil any more under certain conditions

2. Paying for online is not evil because, well because reasons

3. And recently that remasters do not make a new console evil a portconsole.

So much learning lately, so beautful to see it happen. And all it took was a single company to make a difference.
So, no need to worry. If we have accepted DLC, we'll now embrace everything else that we hated up until recently.



1. DLC has NEVER been wrong, we had DLC on PC games for more than 25 years and it was great, problem is how bad executed has been in so many cases, however Nintendo made some of the bests console DLC ever so people has nothing against it for completely obvious reasons (50% more of the game for 12$? Yeah we totally should critizice that lol)

2. Big fat bullshit, you are being so damn dishonest here. People has been showing their dissapointement with this since microsoft did it, when nintendo finally did it too almost 100% of their fans here showed deep dissapointment, the problem is... now the 3 big companies do it, so what the hell can we do? We stop gaming or what? No other option but accept it, which is what PS gamers like you did and now you come with this... that's sad at best and hypocriote at worst. Is also way easier to accept when is really cheap compared to the competition as it seems it will be in the case.

3. The problem is when your console doesn't gert any new interesting title but is constantly getting old remastered games and you have the people saying everywhere "best place to play" which is exactly what happened with Ps4 at first, it was boring as hell and getting ports evey week while many fans were constantly swanking about the number of games. Now you are sugggesting swirtch is in the same situation but that is such a huge bullshit too, Switch is having on its first months plenty of big new games like Breath of the wild, Splatoon 2, Arms or Mario Oddissey. So Mario Kart deluxe (which is not just a lazy remaster, there is a very good reason what it was upgrade from 88 to 94 on meta)  doesn't automatically transform the console into a port console, to even suggest that is ludicruos.
