I really don't want to watch it, someone sum it up! 

 

They question if NIntendo 1st party developers are capable of HD content (interesting note, all Wii games are developed in HD then downgraded for the Wii)

 


 That sentence doesnt make any sense...

Somebody asked if Nintendo's developers are capable of doing HD content at the same graphic level as western developers.


I see, well nintendo did mario galaxy, so I guess is safe to say that they are...

Worst case scenario (other than the price) is a late 2011 release for Japan and a mid 2012 release for the rest of the world. 

They question if NIntendo 1st party developers are capable of HD content (interesting note, all Wii games are developed in HD then downgraded for the Wii)

If this's a middle step like the Dreamcast it's going to be stomped in a couple of years.

So...much...stupid...brain...hemorrhaging...

Pachter think that Cafe with get 3rd parties support if they can port content easily and not develop something specially for the console.

Wow, Pachter's actually paying attention for once!

(See, I do give credit to Pachter when it's due. It's just never been due before)

Thank you, Captain Obvious.



Nothing noticably new this episode, same thing we all have been speculating since the specs rumours. That Wii 2 will get trampled on once 720/PS4 releases, if its only on par with 360/PS3, which are 5 year old tech at this point. So they think that Nintendo has more than just a HD upgrade up their sleeve.

The fact that Wii games are made in HD and then downgraded to SD was actually news to me, and quite interesting news as well. So that would mean, in terms of production of games from 1st parties, not much would change for Wii 2.

They meant it in terms of team size, since Nintendo will need to increase staff in order to create all the content (eg. the additional art textures, higher polygon models, shadows/lighting tech). In other words what can we expect for N6 from Nintendo with the first few months of its release.

On another topic i thought it was interesting how Pachter thought it could launch in early 2012, personally i don't think it will but that would certainly make things interesting and difficult for Nintendo's software teams afterall they havent exactly been able to support 2 platforms before (if they do Wii games, DS gets none, DS games and Wii gets none, 3DS games and there isn't much coming out for Wii or DS apart from Skyward Sword in holiday 2011 (unless it becomes a N6 game)





Pachter was right about Nintendo and thats what pissed me off. They decided to pull the Wii-HD a little too late and they are rushing the next gen years ahead of its time. This could end up blowing up in their faces from consumers and devs alike.
