pokeclaudel said: When Mario Galaxy came out it looked on par with any Xbox or Ps3 game on the market at the time. Even the early tech demo of Zelda looks better then most PS3 title now. I guarantee that by the time PS4 comes out Nintendo games will be looking just as good as early next gen titles. |
Mario Galaxy doesn't even look as good as Kameo (360 launch title). Not even close.
I will say that many of the early 360 games were just hi res ports of PS2/Xbox games (ie: Gun, Tomb Raider Legend, Tony Hawk's American Wasteland, and many more) and did absolutely nothing to showcase the power of the console. The 360 released in 2005 but it took almost a year for the first game to REALLY show what next gen could hold. I hope and suspect that this is the case with the Wii U. It's getting ports of PS3/360 games but it will show us its true power by Christmas 2013. I think Nintendo is taking advantage of being the only console on the market and when the competition makes their move, that's when they'll unleash the big guns.
That's what Sony did with the PS2. When the Gamecube and Xbox released in 2001, the came face to face with Final Fantasy X, Jak and Daxter, Metal Gear Solid 2, Ico, Devil May Cry, and a bevy of instant classics. The competition never stood a chance.
