Forums - Gaming - No RDR2 for NX. What does this mean for 3rd party support on NX?

chapset on 18 October 2016

Lol guys have faith the NX ahasn't been release yet why would they announce their game for it, it's going to be a mega ton at the reveal. Rockstar doesn't even have the name or logo of the NX yet, just be patient.



Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

I'm pretty sure they have at this point. They just don't care.



You know it deserves the GOTY.

It could still mean that maybe the NX version will be part of the reveal for shock factor. I doubt it, but it had been done before and it is not impossible.

Not for Nintendo, I truthfully believe that. Actually lets scratch that, Western Library on Nintendo. They should and could try to establish third party in Japan. This is the best thing strategy for them. 

And I strongly disagree, considering a third party franchise (Just Dance) as a whole moved more numbers than Mario Kart on the Wii. The potential for third party games being big on Nintendo's library is there. Excluding them, or even neglecting the western itself, is a big mistake.

I have faith.  The NX will be where you go for Mario, Kirby, Zelda, and all of your family favourites.  Nintendo will make a nice chunk of cash, and should not look at PS4/XB1 with green-eyed envy.

I guess I will have to disagree as well, since I believe nintendo cannot get the cut of the pie that Sony and Microsoft has. I personally believe they have to make their own pie. 

Also you should know there is a huge difference in terms of something like Just Dance, and Red Dead, in terms of consumers.

No read dead probably means no Rockstar games at all.

Most notably it probably means no Grand Theft Auto either.

It means nothing.

World of FF, DQ Builders and KH 2.8 isnt on Xbox One and that doesnt make Xbox One have bad third party support.


Its basically too early to say NX will have Good or bad third party support. You'll find the answer when the system actually comes out and has at least 2-3 years of its life go by.

So you are comparing Red Dead Redeption 2 a higly anticipated game that will be one of the best selling games this gen with spin offs like Builders, WoFF and KH2.8?

okay...

I seriously don't get the "18+ game not on Nintendo" stuff. Nintendo have a really good marketing niche: family friendly. If you're buying a console for your kid, you'll go for Nintendo.

I saw some parents in the game shop the other day, with a kid (12-13 yo) trying to find a PS4 game to buy for him. There was NOTHING appropriate for him. They were bugging the poor shop staff about "are there parental options to turn this 18 game into something suitable for a 12 yo?". Obviously the answer was no, but the guy in the shop did his best to mumble something about checking the settings options.

In reality: if you want games like RDR you'll have already bought a PS4 or XB1. You aren't in the market for a Nintendo system. Nintendo probably don't event want RDR on their system, as it invalidates their main selling point.

You might as well argue that horror movies are popular, so Disney should release some horror movies :)

Except Disney does release horror movies, but through Buena Vista.

Nintendo may not create M17 games, but that has nothing to do with 3rd party content that could be placed on Nintendo's consoles. We're many generations passed the Mortal Kombat clear blood changes in NES.

The issue is more related to 3rd parties not publishing on Nintendo than anything else.
