Forums - Nintendo - Doom and Wolfenstein II The New Colossus coming to Switch

curl-6 on 13 September 2017

Thought this deserved its own thread, as one of the biggest surprises of today's Direct.

So much for Switch not being able to handle AAA PS4/Xbone multiplats

I guess you could say the Switch is... DOOMed

Yeah, that was a big shock.
Bigger than Payday 2 on Switch.

I was expecting Fallout 4 to be the other Bethesda game on the Switch, but hey, this is actually better. Not for me, but I'm sure people will be happier about those. Plus, Fallout 4 is still a mess performance-wise. Better stabilize it everywhere else, then bring it to the Switch that having it broken for months on the Switch.



You know it deserves the GOTY.

I wonder if Starfield will come to Switch if it runs on id tech 6.
If it is real.

Color me surprised! I won't be buying either, as Doom was only OK for me and I'm bearish on Wolfenstein, but great news for Switch-only owners who wanted to try them!

Gonna be getting both of these. Oh and before that guy comes in, Yes we know it will be downgraded in the graphics department, no surprise.

Will they replace dogs with rats in Wolfenstein again? :S

Really surprising, though. Hopefully Doom still runs at 60FPS, no matter how they downgrade the visuals.



My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.

Look. Let's make on thing clear. EVEN IF DOOM IS 720P and 30FPS on the TV(and who knows if it will be 60), there is absolutely no excuse for third parties anymore! Same with Wolfenstein!

Even though I don't like you as a developer, thank you Bethesda for setting the publisher standard. I also love that it's Doom and Wolfenstein, because Fallout 4 despite great sales has practically died in relevance. DOOM and Wolfenstein just get more talk every day.

Biggest news by far. Will be interesting to follow.
