Was Nate the one who promised a Switch Pro, WWHD switch port and TPHD? edit Yeah, I looked it up. This never wrong guy was wrong about the Switch Pro, Wind Waker HD and Twilight Princess HD. |
But you know... People in this thread are defending him and his "track record" and "I am the one who is wrong".
It's such a twisting of logic, it's astounding.
The fact is... Nate has a track record that is not 100% correct, 100% of the time. - Thus all his claims should be taken with some level of trepidation, not blind adherence and support, which is fundamentally stupid.

Y’know, I’ve thought about this leak Nate has done, specifically whether this is a net good or bad for Nintendo. And honestly? Having nothing more than a fallible “OoT Remake and Star Fox are coming very soon” is so much more fun than Nintendo dropping a trailer and release date. There’s still so much mystery as to what these games will be, and it allows the mind to go wild imagining what Nintendo has planned or when they could be revealed/released. Plus, it gives me the opportunity to be like “Oh, here it is! OoT Remake!! *turns off direct so as to not spoil ANYTHING about the game*” (I want a 100% clean palette entering this game). Also: Production numbers haven’t slowed. In fact, systems have been sold out ever since Pokopia dropped. Nintendo is not in dire need of a boost in demand right now. |
Nintendo has a track record of doing remakes going back over a third of a century.
Thus the idea of a remake of some of it's highest profile games is not something that is unexpected... In-fact, Nintendo has already done remakes of those games on the 3DS to great success.
It was always a matter of "when" then remakes were going to happen, not "if"... And that is what speculators like Nate hedge their bets on.

Pemalite is the type of person who has to be correct 100% of the time. |
That is a bullshit statement and an utter lie.
There have been many instances over the decades where I have engaged in this forum, been presented with evidence and admitted to being incorrect.

The logical path in his argument with Curl would have been to rephrase and find common ground by saying something like, “All I’m saying is don’t take leaks/rumors as gospel, even leakers with a good track record can be wrong sometimes.” In which case, Curl would have likely agreed with him. |
Rather... I use the logical path of... Unless there is empirical evidence, all leaks should be disregarded until such a time it can be factually verified.
The amount of people who have fallen for the snake-oil propaganda by console manufacturers over the last 40 years is astounding... And it occurs every single console generation.
Again... Even a broken clock is right twice a day, I don't discount the fact that Nate gets shit correct, that was never the issue or the argument.
The issue and argument was... He actually get shit wrong sometimes... And we are NOT in a position where we can verify his statements or claims as fact as we don't have the evidence for it.

Starfox SNES and N64 were my childhood, so a new entry that's actually good would be a dream come true for me. |
StarFox 64 remake on the 3DS (As well as Ocarina of Time) are currently the definitive versions of those N64 games, so it makes sense to overhaul those games and bring them to a modern audience considering how renowned those games are.
