| Chrkeller said: All I know is nate was wrong about the pro, wind waker and twilight. So, we shall see. In terms of S2 hardware predictions, lot of us got many things right. I recall saying it would max at 112 gb/s which would impede resolution and fps... guess what, memory bandwidth is 102 gb/s and is a bottleneck for resolution and fps... the idea that the forum was clueless about the S2 is a false narrative. Most people here, with their predictions, where within 10 to 20% of S2 performance. |
Most people changed their projections on it every 3 months, most people here didn't know shit and a lot of people were playing up the "it's on 8nm!!!! Hahahaha! Doommmmed to be under powered!!! Nintendo never learns!" and were ready to start crowing about Switch 2's abilities with Star Wars Outlaws "looking rough! Of course it can't handle a big boy PS5 open world game!!" right up until the game shipped and then that delivered a massive gut punch to that crowd and left them speechless.
Nate has an actual track record of probably at this point 20+ thing's he called including the exact reveal date of the Switch 2. Sorry but he has way more credibility than anyone here.
Most people here don't even know who's in charge of Nintendo at this point, they know vaguely it's some new president guy named Furukawa but they're operating under the impression that it's more or less still the same management team that was there even 10 years ago, when it's totally not. They don't even know what company they're even talking about at this point. The entire board of directors is almost entirely different and much younger today, the hardware team is different, etc. etc.. Miyamoto is basically the only real old fart OG still around at Nintendo still on the board of directors and he's basically just there to oversee the movies and theme parks at this point.
