| curl-6 said: I'm not talking about holding a game/system from 2017 to 2006 standards, I'm talking about holding Switch to 2017 standards and Wii to 2006 standards since that is when they released, and Wii was more outdated in 2006 than Switch is in 2017. |
I meant comparatively holding it to past standards.
Again, the farther back you go the less demanding our standards. Simply cause a wooden cart pulled by horses 200 years ago was OK according to those days' standards does not mean that if they make a crappy car today that people does not have the right to call the makers on the flaws of that car. And if the maker of the crappy car says: Hey, 200 years ago people were happy with a wooden cart pushed by horses, my crappy 2017 car is WAY better than that wooden cart, so if people were okay with that wooden cart, you have no right to complain about my crappy car...
That would be a cop-out. Just cause standards were lower back then does not mean you must accept a poorly designed modern car today.
In other words EVEN IF Twilight Princess was not good technically (which I keep insisting that game did not stike me as outdated back then), but for argument's sake, let's say even if, does NOT mean I cannot hold the Switch to 2017 standards, it's a 2017 system with 2017 standards and 2017 competition and 2017 level of information for consumers. Therefore a 2017 level of criticism on it is justified.
