| DonFerrari said: I didn't say it matter. But you can't with a straight face say that the success is equal between a version selling 10M and another 1M just because both did profit. You can say both were successful if they had good profit and got their sequence... but if the first didn't sell 10M there would be even a game to port to get the other 1M. Nope didn't say they don't make bad decision or mistakes. What I said is that they aren't dumb, so when they decide to not make a port or a game is because they analysis had better profits on the decision they took (even if after occuring you can infer that the decision was wrong they didn't just choose thinking it was the worse option). Which is my point, when a port doesn't happen it isn't due to hate for Nintendo or dumbness of devs. Most people in VGC doesn't even administer any company to even have any idea of decision making process involved and just go on platform alliance to spout nosense on multiple conspiracy theories. And here I thought that you already agreed that if a game skip Switch was because it probably wouldn't seel enough to justificate the port (which is covered on "3rd party doesn't sell on Nintendo"), you are just taking offense on a generalization that is more often than not true. |
The people who make these decisions are human beings, and as such they make mistakes, miscalculations, and bad calls, just as all of us do sometimes. The Crash N.Sane Trilogy almost skipped the Switch; that would have been a bad call. Thankfully it was corrected in time, but if it had skipped the Switch, the anti-Nintendo crowd would've tried to justify it with nonsense like "it wouldn't have been worth their while porting it over so skipping Switch was the right choice."
