| Alistair said: It's hard to do new things when the hardware is so limiting. Nintendo is now pushing over 10 years of the same visual style. Wii U to Switch. This is how you'd feel if the Xbox 360 was entering its eleventh year meanwhile the competition was playing PS4 for 5 years already. |
So many folks have been saying this for so long. The graphical limitations have nothing to do with Nintendo seeming stale. Metroid Dread looks amazing and is definitely not stale. The new BOTW will blow our minds, and yes, will release on that old hardware. If this claim hasn’t been being made literally since launch I might have a tendency to believe it more, but when that’s folk’s first move, it loses its impact. The difference between each generation is getting smaller and smaller, and while certain gamers eat that up, many gamers like myself don’t care that much. As long as the core gameplay experience is top notch, I’m good.
