Dammit patcher!Why you needed to jinx the Switch already?!?!?

My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

I don't know, wasn't that obvious? nVidia > AMD. It's really that simple.

Good to know that. Maybe nVidia would be a benefit for Nintendo Who knows...

Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile

So that means it'll be as hard to port to as porting a PS4 game to the Atari 2600.

Well, perhaps he is talking about the effort to make 4k assets for PS4Pro/Scorpio versus 720p assets for Switch, which would be easier/cheaper?

He's right.

EA Developer 1: "Hey, are we making this game for the Switch, too?"
EA Developer 2: "Nah."
EA Developer 1: "Well, that was easy."

Seriously, though, that's pretty hard to give much credence to without details. On the other hand, if even one developer told him that then it's still a positive sign.

12/22/2016- Made a bet with Ganoncrotch that the first 6 months of 2017 will be worse than 2016. A poll will be made to determine the winner. Loser has to take a picture of them imitating their profile picture.
