Which made no sense as the guy was talking about the lack of a feature that has nothing to do with the power of the console.

He was talking about a "downgraded port", in which means he didn't specify on his first post, the one I quoted.

Downgraded means to reduce to a lower grade, which it is technically, due to the lack of hardware power compared to PS4/XBO/PC, which was the versions he meant as reference on his post, because it isn't compared to the last gen consoles (PS3/360).
It lacks the same mode the other lesser versions from last gen consoles also won't have, and doesn't run on the same engine the PS4/XBO/PC does.

It is a downgraded product due to lack of hardware, indeed, and if he wants it to be in line with the superior versions, he would need Nintendo to make stronger hardware compatible with those.

No, the reason this guy was complaining was not caused due to a lack of hardware, you are being stubborn.

Always comes down to business.

Does Switch misses a mode against PS3/X360 versions or only against PC/PS4/X1?

Dudes.

Yeah, dudes. Seriously.

The later.

So old gen 10y old HW with missing features outsell the new HW with the same missing features and the fault is on the missing features? Some users really excuse Nintendo for all.

Will someone please tell Otter it is about power and not business decisions. Please. Hopefully dude sees this topic. But knowing him, he will miss it.

If possible I think EA should consider porting A Way Out on Switch, it's supposed to be a co-op only game so it would fit the Switch's portability and pair of controllers

That's still not what I was going on about, though, as I never touched sales as being the subject.
The guy complained about downgraded ports on a system that's weaker than the other we wanted the game to be on par with, then Nintendo should have hardware compatible to those to allow for it, that's all it was about.

But you know that port complaining is the reason the guy will use to justify poor sales.

I've been dying--DYING for competent versions of games like wrestling that I can take with me to work. That's all I want. A return to the PSP days. If they make it, I'll buy it.

You hear me, EA? I'LL BUY IT!!

Wrestling games are made by 2k games though aren't they? I don't think EA have anything to do with that. It's Take 2 interactive which are the crowd behind GTA,.... so yeah... very unlikely to head to the Switch methinks.

I could be completely wrong on that btw now, I'm just thinking that the games are called WWE 2k16 and such, could be just wrongmania

I know. Just want a return to the PSP days where every genre was represented in portable form. Can't remember the last time we had sports. My most wanted is WWE--not made by EA but I still miss having it on the go.

The system just came out, give it some time. It wasnt like they were pumping out games on 3ds day one. Patience. Even then i wouldnt expect stuff like Persona 5

I agree to the wait and see attitude, although I don't expect much from EA. But as I'm not interested in the EA portfolio in the first place, it is of not much relevance.

Persona 5 is exactly the game that would match the Switch. It is not too difficult for Switch (it runs on PS3), japanese RPG is a genre which should go well with the Nintendo crowd and Atlus has a good reputation. Nevertheless I don't expect Persona. But that is a game which would work pretty well.

I think you'll get games LIKE Persona. But the Persona series itself seems tied to Sony, except for the spinoffs
