Forums - Nintendo - Nier Automata On Switch is possible

Rob5VGC on 31 January 2017

Imagine. NieR: Automata Switch version starring 2C (Not a typo).

Anyway, Atari 2600 version would be cool. Make it happen SE.

Square owns the IP so Platinum can't just put it wherever they want. Though given that Square is closer to Nintendo these days than, say, EA or Activision it could pop up: though I suspect it would be a later port and would be announced in a Direct and not on a big stage like E3 or something. 

 

Would be nice though. Then again it comes out in late Feb/March so for all we know it will end up like that desert game the X-Box had...Recoil I tihnk it was called. 

Square is closer to Nintendo these days?

 

How so?

Compared about 20 years ago, they are actually talking. 

 

Beyond that, the 3DS (which people love to ignore) had many successes from Square Enix that worked out surprisignly well with Nintendo themselves helping to promote many of their traditionally Japanese only releases westward: see the Bravely and Dragon Quest titles. S.E was also one of the earliest companies to announce games for the Switch, beating Nintendo on it as I recall. 



The Democratic Nintendo fan....is that a paradox? I'm fond of one of the more conservative companies in the industry, but I vote Liberally and view myself that way 90% of the time?

please!
Id love to play this game. Im a xbox owner, and now im willing to buy a switch more than a ps4, because ps4 is pretty redundant with xbox and seems japanese games that dont come to xbox are now on switch.

How did you come to that conclusion? Outside of a few titles, what other games are coming to Switch from the PS4 (Japanese titles)? Is Persona 5 confirmed for Switch? What about KH?

If you truly cared about Japanese games, then PS4 would have been an obvious choice over everything else. I do agree having both would be redundant if you had to choose one. Comes down to preference at that point. If you have a PC, then you're golden. PC gets a crap ton of games that either console would get over the other.

I'm trying to make sense of this. PS4 has games that you want, but you don't want a PS4 because it's "pretty redundant" so you'd rather wish to get ported Japanese PS4 games on the Switch instead. Is that what you're saying? I don't get the logic.

An xbox owner calling another console redundant is always funny though.

The game already runs at 900p 60 fps on PS4, it doesn't even have FXAA and AF looks like it's Bilinear.
If Xbox One version happens it will be 720p 60 fps.

How would this game even run on the Switch? in 480p maybe? I don't think Square would do that...

Yeah i don't really see the point either, Switch can't run Dragon Quest Heroes PS3 version at good FPS, this game would be unplayable.

 

 

It's weird seeing the same people who argue that Nintendo needs to be different even if the cost is weak hardware begging for multiplatform games that can't run on it because of.... weak hardware.

About as likely as a famicom version it seems. :p

SADLY, I do not even know what genre this is. I hope other Nintendo gamers know what it is.

More games the merrier though!

If you mean Nier Automata it's an action RPG, the combat has been made similar to other PG games like MGSR and Bayo.

Well, I own a ps3 too, it used to be very redundant with PS4. So, i choose Xbox one(FFXV and KH3 would be there too).

But PS3 games are no more. 

And i dont own a gaming PC, i dont like playing on PC.

His statement is the same. You're going to miss on the majority of these types of games.
