So... the handheld device, which is also the input peripheral for the stationary console, will be released seperatly beforehand? Hm. Ok.

Who on earth said that the handheld device is the input device for the home console?

Because they are killing the machine that gives them profits and leaving another year the one that it's dead with no library announced.

On top of that, killing the neat speculated concept behind the NX: shared OS and library (majority). Releasing one apart of the other kills any hype.

3DS is more dead. All games this year are compltely external productions and late localizations. So it will probably go away earlier.

And the Uisoft guy even said that NX systems won't share the same library. They just share the same OS. Just think about it: developers have one year more to learn the OS.



 

Isn't Zelda U the only internally developed Wii U game though? So basically 3DS & Wii U are in similar positions as pretty much every game is either outsourced or a localization.

Twilight Princess HD-Tantalus

Star Fox Zero-Platinum

Pokken Tournament-Namco

SMT x Fire Emblem-Atlus

Mario & Sonic Rio Oympics-Sega

Star Fox Zero - co-developed by EAD

Twilight Princess HD - co-developed by EAD

probably Pikmin 4 - developed by EAD

And 4 games developed or co-developed by EAD in one year is more than we had in other years.

Co-developed basically means they are just overseeing development and Pikmin 4 is not confirmed, that's one game they are making themselves

Nope. That would be Supervision. But they are co-developing it, so that means they have there own devs on those games. 





The way it's written makes it seem pretty fake.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

This sounds identical to recent baseless forum speculation, in addition, which means that someone just regurgitated that and this is not true information.

The one thing we can say is that there are multiple form factors, and anyone making up information can ground their "report" in that knowledge, and make up the rest.

The handheld/terminal thing first leaked 2 years ago. But this report is talking about account systems, this is not something a dev would have interest in; it is also a more simplistic report on what we already know is coming, a multi-device account system that includes mobile and PC.

in other words: the report is FAKE.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

Not entirely true. Co-development can range from having a team work on games with another developer, Treasure and G Rev on Ikaruga, to doing all the main design work but having a outsourced developer do the grunt work, like what usually happens with outsourced KH games, to just a important member supervising like the Sonic Rival series where Iizuka just checked in.
