Capcom: "MHW can't be done on Switch." But might make a Switch specific MH game. (Rumor)

The same Digital Foundry that said that they didn't think Doom was possible on the Switch? And I never said 3DS MH games and MHW are the same, of course they're more advanced. But 3DS and Switch are also not the same. It's like saying PS3 level architecture (maybe even higher) is not capable of such features. Hello no.

 

Again, I am not saying it definitely could. I don't know how to develop for the Switch (although I am a developer myself). I cannot take Capcom seriously though when they say that it cannot be done.

 

Remember Nintendo during the peak of the Wii / DS era? Yeah, we saw how long that lasted. Capcom's value and state are inflated. They are in a good spot, but far from what the numbers imply.

Ditto.

First, John's post was in response to you claiming that World is just MH HD. Quit moving goalposts and setting up strawmen- you clearly didn't know what you were talking about. Man up and admit you were speaking from an uninformed place and you'll retain much more dignity than you would strawmanning against facts.

 

Second, the way you're acting and the performance you demand of the Switch means one of two things. Either you're not a developer at all, or you're making guesses from a game you know absolutely nothing about. If it's the former, shame for impersonating one to make a point. If it's the latter, shame for not behaving like a developer at all.

 

Honestly, arguing against the word of one of the biggest names in gaming when they have nearly overwhelming support and are enjoying their new personal Golden Age just seems ridiculous. The Wii/DS era also started a decade ago, and I would hardly expect a person to be the same after ten years, much less a company with regular seat changes.

 

And Capcom is stupid? Are they stupid because they made gangbusters where all of the Nintendo MH fans said they would lose money? Are they stupid because they remembered Mega Man is dope? Are they stupid because the remembered Resident Evil is a horror game first, not action? Are they stupid because they agreed that DmC was awful and is instead making DMC5? They might have been stupid in the past, they're killing it right now.

I actually own the game and a PS4 Pro. I see a shiny coat of paint, and the same rigid movement, mechanics and AI, just smoothed out and sped up. Again, vastly superior to MH on 3DS, just nothing the Switch could not handle. Apparently massive worlds, multiple enemies fighting each other or moving through the map did not exist on PS3. Good to know.

And yes, they are indeed stupid. A large portion of the community is calling them Crapcom for a reason. A large portion of the Nintendo fan-base specifically is enraged towards them.

They "remembered" Mega Man, yes. Who "forgot" him in the first place? Who drove him into the mud? Funny you mention RE7, cause it sold way less than RE6, a moving turd of a game. And funny you don't mention SFV and Marvel vs Capcom Infinite. I guess they couldn't fit into your "success". The sole HUGE success they have is MHW, and I was on of those people that thought it would flop, that much I admit, at least in comparison to other entries in the series.
