At this point (and i love history and ww2) xbox fanboys reminds me of three kind of ww2 veterans

The nazis Who resisted until the Last moment, waiting for the wunderwaffen to do a miracle

The lost japanese soldiers on remote islands thinking they are fighting a war when they lost that war long time ago


The french pro fascist People Who act like they were resistent fighters

The fascination with Graphics amazes me sometimes.

Let's just see what the new Astro bot games look like; I can 100% guarantee it is going to shit all over something like Hellblade in terms of what makes a game fun to play.

We are losing our way and focusing on what I think is the least important part of our hobbie.

I think Nintendo has a good grasp on this balance. Not that their games don't look good, they do, but the focus on game play is always there. Story is important too. Given their success, you'd think more developers would get that many people are looking for fun games - not technical showcases.

People use Nintendo to cargue they are doing the right thing but Nintendo have some avantages other doesnt have, they can ship fucking médiocre ports of old games and well three millions because they have these ips, also they can reusse simple assets and nobody cares, they have charte blanche

Nintendo never advanced past the late 90's , what they're charging for their hardware is criminal & the games that release don't justify the price they sell them for no way the development costs are even close to other AAA games

It's not so much whether they're doing the right thing or not overall. They just don't put out games like Hellblade 2 because they don't focus on graphics over game play. That's a positive thing. For what it's worth, I don't have a Nintendo console because their games don't appeal to me and I think the price for their hardware is too high for what it is. Still, given their success, they are doing something right - I believe it's making fun games that people want to play.

They dont focus on graphics because the know that cant, look at the switch hardware

What does Sony first-party have to do with the topic at hand?

The Switch is the way it is because they don't focus on graphics. That is a decision Nintendo made and it's worked well for them. If you have an issue with Nintendo, that's fine, but it's not hard to see via the sales figures that many people find their games fun and worthwhile to play.

You can thank MS marketing for that.
