Good
B-BUT IT WILL LOOK GOOD ON THE NX
It's not about teraflops because it's part portable.
Great so Wii 3 confirmed.
>>341639945
Everybody's doing bullshot nowadays
>>341639796
If its about the content why did the Wii U have such a bad library of games?
>>341639796
he's right
do you think children give a fuck about specs?
ofc not
Considering the Ubisoft comment, this is literally going to be Wii 2.
i really hope nintendo has some genius concept for the nx so i can enjoy xboner and sonygger tears
>>341640156
do you think they gave a fuck about the wiiu?

Man the only thing that Nintendo is going to get with this decision is a GiantFlop
>>341639796

That's true.
But Nintendo doesn't deliver on either.
>>341639796

Because that worked great for the WiiU
>>341640109
They gave up on Wii U pretty early, and moved most everything to NX.
>>341639796
It will be the Wii U all over again, they will fall behind when the Scorpio and Neo get games like GTA VI.

We are not asking for it to compete with the best of them, just asking Nintendo to not once again doing their blue ocean gimmick bullshit and sell us another overpriced outdated console

>>341640432
>YFW we'll have to fall for other memes at some point
>>341639796
Nintendo has basically accepted the fact that their consoles are for children with the shitty specs and accompanying gimmicks.
Why can't /v/?
>>341639945
>its ok when 99.999% of sony previews are bullshots
>its not ok when nintendo does it
kek
at least nintendo still knows how to actually make games
all sony has are souls,
and those have always been a forced meme
the gameplay has always been mediocre
>>341640730
They want the kiddy shit on their consoles badly regardless of what they will tell you
>>341639796
>no developers will want to work with the bad specs
i just hope nintendo doesn't make it so fucking terribly underpowered like the wii u was
>>341640225
Why would that make them sad? As long as the NX is underpowered, it won't be in direct competition with the Xbox or PS4.
If it's successful, 3rd parties will develop games specifically for their hardware.
If it's a flop, it'll be the same as the WiiU. Some good 1st party games from Nintendo, but no third party support means you have to either play random indies or wait multiple months between releases.
Regardless, if the NX can't compete with the PS4 or Xbone (or their half-gen successors), it'll never make sense to own one in exclusion of the other(s) if you're at all interested in modern AAA games.
Hope they know what they're doing.
Ubisoft was right.
>>341640865
>its ok when 99.999% of sony previews are bullshots
who are you quoting?
>>341640865
>its ok when 99.999% of sony previews are bullshots
Since when?
We must be browsing different boards mate.
Unfortunately you need specs to deliver content. Without the specs, multiplats will always be shittiest on Nintendo consoles, and the latest trend is to basically just skip the Nintendo release.
I mean look at the games that normies play, like Battlefield and Call of Duty. Some will have it on Xbox, some will have it on PlayStation. Really depends on what their friends have. But nobody on Earth has it on Wii. Does Wii even get the DLC maps?
I think they should keep Wii U as the console that parents buy for their children and target NX at 20-something Xbox/PlayStation owners. NX needs better specs than Scorpio and Neo and contracts to bring timed exclusivity of big multiplat franchises. All the big first party games like Mario, Zelda, etc. would release on both Wii U and NX so parents continue to buy them for their kids, but the NX version would be vastly superior. Wii U should be Nintendo games on low, NX should be Nintendo+third party games on ultra.
This generation has been shit.

>>341640925
>If it's successful, 3rd parties will develop games specifically for their hardware.
They didn't with Wii. They used the fact it was underpowered to justify not supporting it. The same could happen with NX.
This is all assuming NX a home console. Nintendo has yet confirmed what type of hardware it is.
>nobody developed for the Wii U because it didn't use x86 meme
Alright I need to put this fucking thing to rest.
No game developers program in assembly anymore, so this is fucking irrelevant.
Secondly, the Wii U's CPU is no Cell. It doesn't have shitloads more cores than everything else or anything crazy like that.
The Wii U not being x86 had absolutely no bearing on anything. The PS4 and Xbone being x86 had absolutely no bearing on anything.
The only reason the PS4 and Xbone went with x86 processors is that R&D budgets have been slashed for virtually every CPU architecture that isn't x86 these days. Nintendo was content with a revised improvement of their older CPUs. Sony and Microsoft didn't, hence the difference.
>>341641106
It's quite obviously a bullshot, but the stream had extremely bad bitrate, so it's also not representative. Right now our best guess as to how the game actually looks are the 4K screenshots
>>341639796
>WE CREATE ENTERTAINMENT THAT MAKES PEOPLE ROLL THEIR EYES
fix'd
>>341641267
Except nobody else mentioned x86 architecture anywhere in the thread.
Nintendo keep spouting this shit but then fail to actually release any games.
Well, it makes sense. When one of your competitors has just announced a console with 6 teraflops of power, the only thing you can do is try to undermine the importance of specs.
>>341641224
>They used the fact it was underpowered to justify not supporting it
The thing is, that is and always was bullshit. There is no such thing as not being able to shrink a game down for slower hardware, unless the difference in power is like 50x.
Activision got fucking Modern Warfare 3 running on the Wii. Yes, it didn't look as nice as the other version. But it fucking worked.
>>341640925
That's retarded. They're still in competition with xbone and ps4 even if they're underpowered because most people aren't going to buy more then one gaming console. Idorts are the exception, not the rule. Nintendo used to get decent third party support back in the gamecube era, because they was when they had a console which wasn't completely underpowered compared to the competition, and which didn't rely on a gimmick controller
Part of me hopes that Nintendo is doing everything they can to present their old, tired image right up until the NX is revealed so they can pivot into the modern market without months of artificially fucked sales on the Wiiu, 3DS, and family friendly stuff.
But there's also the horrifying possibility that Nintendo has learned nothing from the WiiU's failure and is ready to double down mid-gem on a quirky, underpowered platform.
At this point, I really hope that it's their handheld as well so at least there's a possibility of developer support.

I thought I was the only one doing this. Still, I know these are all delusions and Nintendo won't change for the better in the near future. They really don't see what they're doing wrong.
>>341641660
No point of pointing out single devs when everyone does it
>>341641524
Like it or not, that's the system Nintendo has perpetuated.
It's a shame because if a Nintendo console could host modern multi-plats, it would have the richest and best exclusive library of any modern system.
Instead, the WiiU is a tax for the privilege for playing Nintendo titles with almost nothing else to offer. Nintendo makes good games, but if you want anything else, you're fucked.
Everybody in these threads only seems concerned with whether the NX is 'underpowered' or not.
I thought you fuckers would have learned from console history that it doesn't matter very much. It's a factor, sure. But it's very far from the most important one. So concern yourselves with something else.
>>341640156
Children care about good graphics, which are generated by specs
>We're making the same mistake as we did with the Wii U.
Are they blind or just out of touch as to why the Wii U failed?
>>341641915
They're concerned with getting a Wii U repeat.
>>341641828
It's the curse of past success. Usually, a company in this position would be lean, hungry, and ready to wow fans.
Instead, we have this weird "it's your problem, not ours that this wasn't a success" vibe which makes it seem like we're in for more of the same. And they have the money to bankroll mistakes for way too long.
Pushing back the release makes me a tiny bit hopeful that it could be an image shift with the NX and they didn't want to do it so early.
>>341641987
>implying wii u was a blue ocean console
>>341641987
Kimishima knew the Wii U was gonna flop because it was "too similar" to the Wii, so I suppose they must have some semblance of why the Wii U flopped
I just really hope this is another case of Reggie being retarded as usual
>>341641595
I really hope they have. Still chasing the wii casual market is going to kill them, since the normies have en masse moved onto phones and tablets and aren't coming back to a console. They need to get the confidence of their core audience back, which another wacky controller won't do
>>341642202
At least they were smart enough to not name the console the Wii NX.
>>341639945
This makes me smile
Sweet, Hopefully 3rd party devs won't mind developing games on a fucking 1980's toaster because Nintendo games have gone to shit.
>>341641915
It doesn't matter sometimes. The 3ds is underpowered but uncontested. 3rd parties develop for the platform and utilize its features because it's the only/best game in town.
That also worked with the Wii.
Underpowered does matter if you're entered a competitive market with pre-existing entities. If you can't do what they do as well as they can, you're going to have issues building a base just by scarcity of titles alone. Nintendo has already shown that it doesn't have the ability to singlehandedly develop enough games to sustain a console generation. If they don't have a mega-hit or if they can't compete with modern specs, it'll be the same all over again.
>>341641896
It doesn't have to be like that though. I mean, GC and N64 would have the best version of third party titles most of the time.
It's like that now, but there's no reason they couldn't make a powerful console again besides their own stubbornness in sticking with a strategy which clearly isn't working
>>341639796
Nintendo is fucking done.
Zelda looks like 2007 shit.

>falling for the "master race" meme
>"b-but it's not a meme I swear! You're just jelly u poorfag"
>>341639796
If the specs of the NX aren't at least on par with Xbone and PS4 they'll get the same amount of third party support as the Wii U and they'll have another underperformer on their hands. Exclusives move consoles, but if you're not getting the multiplats they might as well be competitor exclusives.
>>341642335
Technically, we have no idea what they named it. NX is a placeholder.

>Still chasing the wii casual market is going to kill them, since the normies have en masse moved onto phones and tablets and aren't coming back to a console.
Nintendo abandoned the casuals to focus on core gamers, actually. They dropped the focus on casuals back in 2011.
It's the core gamers that betrayed Nintendo by not buying Wii U. Well, and Nintendo fucked up by not giving core gamers what they wanted. You know that Nintendoland was actually for core gamers right?
When Nintendo designed games for casuals they would purposely not put any of their old IP into it. Nintendoland on the other hand was the complete opposite, it was a pastiche of old Nintendo IP - they very sincerely thought it was a game for their core audience.
It was a game where instead of your mom asking you to play Wii Sports with her, you were supposed to ask mom whether she'd play Nintendoland with you.
>>341642610
Yes, it's frustrating. They really got fucked over mentally by the Wii's huge, apparently unrepeatable, success. Let's hope it doesn't kill them.
>>341642646
Show me on this doll where Nintendo hurt you.
Why don't they even try any more? I don't want to see Mario, Metroid, and Zelda go away. I like my Wii U for the tiny bit of games I play on it, but there's no way NX won't be their last. I just don't think they're gonna go third party like Sega.

>>341643580
Nintendo have been averse to specs since the Gamecube days.
The most famous thing is where Sony and Microsoft gave theoretical peak performance estimates for the PS2 and Xbox of something like 66 million and 150 million polygons respectively, while Nintendo gave a "real-world" performance estimate of 6-12 million polygons for Gamecube.
To graphic whores and spec freaks, Nintendo were giving them fucking palpitations by not playing ball.
>>341639796
The "Sheika Slate" tablet you get in BotW really leads me to believe that is an indication of how the NX is going to end up
Having a tablet in a Zelda game is too on the nose to lead towards some indication
>>341643339
>>They bragged about the new NX being more powerful than current gen Xbone.
nintendo never did this? what the fuck are you talking about?
>>341641987
Nintendo is arguably the most out of touch company in all of economics.
>>341643640
A mistake which, if we go by the Wii U's library, could easily happen.
There's already stuff out there about how the NX will "try to re-capture the Wii audience". It's going to be a disaster. Nintendo genuinely doesn't understand that they need to compete on technology anymore. The Wii was a lightning in a bottle thing that they won't be able to replicate, but they'll still keep chasing that same nonexistent audience of people.

And history has proven you right in the last 6 years how?
I want Nintendo to succeed but they're shooting themselves in the foot.
I bet they don't even use optical media, which is again another suicidal tactic. People want to play their BluRays. Granted, everyone has a BluRay player now probably, but this is analogous to stores now having UPS Access Points/other facilities to draw customers in.
Its about getting people to boot your goddamn machine on, and see what else is new/available to buy.
The store I used to work for became a UPS Access point (for free, there's no monetary benefit from this, its simply being a way for people to drop off and pick up packages) and it literally just gets people in the door. Once you get people in the door, that's the goal. They'll eventually buy something.
So Nintendo, make people boot up your machine. Make them buy something.

Then you also have to buy an amiibo for the protagonist you want to play as and amiibos of the enemies you want to battle. Item amiibos are also very important. You also have to buy a save amiibo (memory card) and player amiibos for each additional player in a multiplayer game.

Regular ass controllers and keyboard/mouse will continue to be the main video game inputs for years to come, just as water seeks its own level.
It always strays from that with motion controls, cameras, touch screens, but always comes back every time for the core video games.
The Wii was a major success, but the more loyal fanbase appreciated games that had minimal use of motion controls, or how the IR sensor basically emulates a mouse cursor. Their casual fanbase has moved to touchscreen games.
They lost them, now their fanbase consists of nostalgiafags (like myself, I have a Wii U) and it's just not enough.

Is there still any way Nintendo won't die next gen? Their celshading is beautiful. It's probably fine if it runs below 30fps all the time, and open world crafting is the future still.

you sound super educated and wise
>>341644527
to be fair the devs fucked it over first by porting a bunch of games that were already several months old and cheap entries in series people didn't care about anymore. Rabbids and Scribblenauts were among the only new entries in the lineup.
Why can't Nintendo just abandon the console market and focus on handhelds?
>>341640156
They care about graphics. It's all they talk about between my kid and his friends
>>341645181
>he thinks that 9.4 GFLOPS rating is for the CPU
way to know your own shitposting material you complete imbecile
it's for the fucking GPU
the actual GFLOPS rating for the Gamecube's CPU is 1.9 GFLOPS
You guys stopped enjoying videogames years ago.
You only enjoy the temporary high you get from falseflagging and shitposting now. Civil discussion on this board is impossible.
>>341645207
>RE4 was a bad port meme
yeah, I guess capcom didn't know how to program for PS2...
>>341645434
Why would you want that? Handhelds are for 12 year olds.
>>341645434
i hope the 30x17 resolution the DS screens have stays for another 10 years
>>341639796
He said the exact same things about the Wii U.
>It's not about the box
Look where that got them.
>>341645480
I know that you mongoloid. My post points out that both cpu AND gpu are better on GameCube.
God damn summer is in full effect.
who needs a teraflop when the entire corporation is a flop
>>341645148
They're either get bought, merge, or go third party.
>>341645502
I actually don't see alot of console war shitposting in this thread, it mostly seems to be people who legitimately want Nintendo to do better
>>341645480
he clearly was not referring to the CPU as GFLOPS
>>341640156
Times changed
>>341640356
By early do you mean before the system was released?
>>341645661
>>341645708
So why did he quote the GFLOPS for the PS2's CPU against the Gamecube's GPU?
>>341645181
>>CPU 485MHz vs. 299MHz
Man look at the picture and tell me if you think that the 04 CPU is faster than the 15 one.

all i want is a console with decent hardware, online and nintendo games. 3rd party sucks anyway and if not then i am going to play them on pc.
>>341645932
They already did one of those, it's called the wiiu
Why does he always talk about content when they have none?
What have they even released this year? Star Fox? lel
Is there anything on the horizon for this year?
>>341645953
But he did >>341645181
>9.4 GFLOPS vs. 6.2 GFLOPS
9.4 GFLOPS is the for the Gamecube's GPU "Flipper"
6.2 GFLOPS is for the PS2's CPU "Emotion Engine"

So what do you gain from this?
>>341646252
I don't know, I've tried to find a GHz-FLOPS online conversion tool but to my surprise I couldn't find any.
>>341646450

If you think about it, everything is technically always dying. A lifespan is finite, and time only passes.

>>341646252
Flops are fairly worthless as a metric anyway because it doesn't take into account important shit like the effect of cache on performance. It's a mostly discredited way to compare processors, although MUCH better than just comparing clock speeds.
>>341646303
Nintendo died the day they entered video games.
>>341646450
I will finally be able to play the 1-2 nintendo games I care about on other consoles.

Why would this make me sad? If it has good 1st party, good weeb games, and no gay ass 4kids tier censorship I'll probably end up buying it.
>>341646450
Satisfaction.
>>341646524
And what's gonna happen after those keks run out?
It's not about teraflops but FLOP is coming one way or another
>>341639796

Now I hope the backlash is so huge that it forces Nintendo to do the opposite with the NX.

Damn, pretty much means they are setting up another failure.
Who really didn't see this coming?
I'm really worried for Nintendo,
I hope they have something in mind
Because if the NX goes bad, it's over for them.
And I don't want it to happen.
>>341646787
Too late. All the testing and component choices made for a new console are made at LEAST 18 months out from release date. Even changing the fucking GPU would force them to redo a giant chunk of shit and talk on another 12 months of work to readjust things.
If Nintendo does not have a powerful machine, they're not getting the automatic 3rd party support they DESPERATELY need.
The Wii U barely broken 12 million. This next machine might fail to break 10.
>>341646904
>they are setting up another failure.
But that was the strategy they followed for the Wii.
Remember the Wii, the most profitable console of all time?
>>341646662

>NX will probably be on the same level as the original PS4 and Xbone
>Sony and Microsoft are already moving to upgraded versions of their consoles
Man, the Wii really fucked up with Nintendo's schedule. They are always one generation behind the competition. No wonder nobody takes them seriously
>>341646996
>If Nintendo does not have a powerful machine, they're not getting the automatic 3rd party support they DESPERATELY need.
Wow yes, all that automatic support the N64 got.
>>341646693
Explain
>>341646450
Fanboys of other consoles and companies are perpetually assblasted because Nintendo has been the face of videogames since the NES.
No videogame mascot is as recognizable or world-renown as Mario.
>>341643625
The magnet controller, just look at that awesome unique design. :^)
>>341646992
as long as nintendo keeps making successful handhelds they have nothing to worry about.
>>341647014
Yeah, and probably their worst by far with gimmicks and terrible software. It seems both their hardware and software are getting worse each passing generation. I doubt casuals will dip again into a gimmick.
>>341647084
>The upgrades are a new generation
I hate this meme
>>341640156
Specs= A console that can actually fucking run 3rd party games.
Nintendo doesn't have that, and they probably still won't so they're going to be digging their own grave this time again.
>>341643169
I think that's just Gamefreak not giving a shit, Kid Icarus had better graphics and less framerate issues, and actually supported 3d.
>>341647221
I once saw an NX mockup that looked like the Sheika Tablet. It was a tablet with a handle on the side. I can't find it anymore.
>>341646996
The scorpio is releasing next year and already the tech is out of date. Consoles are always out of date, from the day they're created.
>>341641915
People want third party games on a Nintendo console. Third Parties want to make games on powerful consoles that don't have forced gimmicks.
Before people start with "b-but they did that with game cube" Nintendo fucked that up by having the games on mini disc instead of DVD format like everyone else.
>>341647195
>face of videogames
That's pretty much Minecraft and Angry Birds, this isn't the late 80s.
Even Nintendo fans recognize that they have been shit, myself included. They just constantly rush out games, make awful hardware, charge out the ass for everything. Overall, a really stagnating and poor company.
Their death is pretty overdue.

the market has spoken, people want low end pc's that are optimized
>>341647292
>Specs= A console that can actually fucking run 3rd party games.
Third parties haven't had any trouble porting current-gen games to 360 and PS3, which are around 50% weaker than Wii U.
>>341647156
Nintendo got way more support with N64 than they even deserved, considering that the documentation was lacking, Nintendo was pain in the ass to get information from and the devkits became available after the retail console itself got to costumers (~a year into PS's lifespan).
>>341647286

You won't know what it means to love a gaming console until you build it yourself. Move to China and get a job at a Sony sweatshop, then come back and talk.
>>341647503
Denial. Denial in this post. Its called ease of porting.
>>341647467
>this extremely profitable thing that has not hurt any major release was the end of nintendo
>>341647467
How much you wanna bet the NX has paid online? Oh right, also Nintendo fans are going to defend it, no doubt. Just like the new Zelda stealing ideas from everything and implementing technology from 2004, its all "new" when Nintendo does it. Nintendo at this point is the Apple of gaming, anyone smart enough would avoid them.
>>341647418
>Nintendo fucked that up by having the games on mini disc instead of DVD
Yes, I'm sure that was absolutely pivotal. You have a goddamn single digit IQ.
I fucking hate all this hype and secrecy. Just fucking reveal what it is and stop trying to appeal to fucking hype timing. It's so cheap
>>341647463
But I've been satisfied with the Wii-U. I don't approve of all of their decisions and policies at the corporate level but I have more games for my Wii-U than for the Xbox One and Ps4.
>>341647547
Quality wise, yes. The gamecube had good third party and good first party, and was all around solid. The Wii was so barren on releases, most of its better games got ported, and most of them played like shit due to waggle.
I had a Wii the entire lifecycle, me and everyone else used it maybe once or twice a year because it had next to fucking nothing.
>>341647704
>How much you wanna bet the NX has paid online?
I wouldn't be surprised, but subscription stuff and even Season Passes are very un-Nintendo.
>>341647463
>They just constantly rush out games
>Zelda has taken over years to come out
>Even Nintendo fans recognize that they have been shit, myself included
>Their death is pretty overdue.
You could at least make your falseflag a lot less obvious
>>341647806
Having more games on a platform that's 2 years older is hardly a good merit to go by, more when most of the software is awful.
>>341647605
>Its called ease of porting.
Right, cause it's easier to port games to the Cell machine with an ancient GPU that doesn't even have a unified shader model (standard since 2006) than to Wii U. Fucking idiot.
>>341647868
>quality
stopped reading there. If we're talking about sales we're talking about sales, which the Wii was tremendously successful in. Don't move the goalposts.

The Wii U is literally only a year older than the Xbone and PS4.
>>341647704
>Fans of something they like defend their problems
What other shocking news do you have for us?
>>341647885
I have a Wii U dude. How am I falseflagging?
Zelda was delayed because of the NX and because, likely, they couldn't cover development costs with the sales projections on the Wii U alone. Everything else has been butchered or rushed. The saving grace of the Wii U, if you can call it that, is the few safe sequels and the few third party titles Nintendo funded.
