Uncharted 4, Horizon, Gran Tourismo, Everybodies Golf, Gravity Rush 2 the ridiculous situation with Last Guardian... Sony aren´t shy of delays either. And how many times and years did they have shown off their VR device? Get some perspective before spouting hypocritical things.

I never said Sony doesn't have delays. Yes they suffer from them too.

But they have games right now I can enjoy playing while the NX RUMOR APOCALYPSE continues.

All of us have been sentenced to ten more months of NX rumors. I will ease my sentence by enjoying some Sony games.  

With the PS4 revision around the corner it´s a quite silly choice going with the inferior PS4 base model unless money is a big issue. This kind of impatience is mostly known about young children that just can´t wait any longer to play with their kidstoys.

I'm going to warn you right now to back off as you're quickly derailing and devolving the topic. Given your history, it'd be in your best interest not to attempt to attack another user by implying they're a child. 



The only past I´m aware of is that this forum really needs a new moderation team due to inadequate mods, the Sony bias is ridiculous.

- Moderated, Carl



yeah, everybody is talking about the nx, even naysayers, and we don't even know what the thing is.

Sorry you got moderated for the child statement. I get the feeling you don't like kids much. Remember, It's O.K. to have fun.

Money is not an issue with my choice of picking up a standard PS4. Like I said above, games are the issue. And later on if I decide to upgrade to the PS4K a year or so from now, those games in my library will get upgraded too, running on the new hardware.

I have been playing videogames for almost 40 years friend. And one thing I have learned is that day one adopter guinea pigs get burned the most. I will watch the PS4K for a year to see if it is really worth upgrading. And during that time I get to enjoy quality games on a proven and powerful system that has excellent first and third party support. Do you see the wisdom and patience in my decision now?



   

Hey! They got SONY on my amiibo! Wait a minute. Two great gaming tastes that game great together!

This is all unrealistic once more.

You guys think these things are done way quickly. You forget that Nintendo wasnt planning to release a new system this early. This project started early last year when it was first unveiled to ease worries about mobile development. The hardware itself can't have existed as a prototype since late last year when rumors of dev kits first started. They have had 6 months to actually work on NX stuff, wich probably has been migration of Wii U projects. As i tire of saying... only retro and 3D mario team can have anything to show at this point, and i'm sure they don't want to show half assed stuff.

You guys are living the fantasy if you think they have anything ready. This is all beeing rushed and it will be a disaster. Nintendo is not holding anything back. They are desperate.

So what have the EAD teams (besides the LoZ team), and Retro been doing for the past 2 years? Paper Mario? Nope Intelligent Systems is making that.... .Sooo......

Sooo...what? They are working on their new projects. But none of it is anywhere near ready. All teams have released their projects only a year or so ago. Retro and 3D mario team have been working on the tools/engines no doubt. Wich is why their projects will have a 3 year cycle.

Thing aren't ready. Just accept it.

It is also unrealistic to think that Nintendo hadnt started working on NX before they revealed the codename last year.

Back in May 2014, Iwata said they plan to redefine gaming in about 2 years. Based on that it is safe to say they had been planning on releasing on console in 2016 since before May 2014, the launch got pushed back which gives devs certain Nintendo teams up to 3 years to work on these games.

That is an estimate. They would have started a few months earlier. It doesn't change anything major in terms of the timeline. 

Yes, yes... i know exactly what you said on this, what i said on it and who was right in the end. 2016 was never realistic. You just have to be seeing this industry for a while to know that. 

NX is beeing rushed. The idea that Nintendo is holding back is ludicrous. Maybe they thought they could miraculously pull it off, but then they would be as misguided as the fandom.

 

I mean... how many times were Nintendo games delayed on the Wii U. You think they are miraculously going to become efficient? The laughs...

No, not miraculously but if they do in fact go with a fully unified platform that is both a replacement to Wii U & 3DS where all games are released on both form factors than they can significantly reduce droughts.



When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.

They could wait for a bigger and better show like Gamescom to show off software.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
