3,5 times stronger than PS360 and at least 4-5 times weaker than PS4/Xbox 1, the cost in 7th gen is nothing compared to 8th gen. You are serious thinking the cost for a Switch game which required less power and less resolution/fps is the same as PS4/Xbox1?

And you think Switch Nintendo games are costing more than the PS360?

Some games from gen 7th for which the costs are nothing compared to gen 8th as you said... so how much did Zelda and Mario for Switch costed?

Correct, this is why it is cheap to make game for Switch when most third party AAA games are port only. Since when i said Switch games are costing more? With Nintendo ability, their games never cost tens of millions to make while still get great quality, even GOTY. Some games from 7th gen which the costs are nothing compared to gen 8th are some AAA games here, as i said before, the biggest Nintendo game: Zelda only need to sell 2 mil to be a success, just show how good Nintendo is at managing the budget. Some games like Witcher 2 budget are nothing compared to 3, Uncharted 3 have the cost can't compared to 4, or Killzone 3 compared to Horizon are laughable.
