A few yrs ago, people would have begged Bioshock and Borderlands to get a port to Wii U. Now they come to Switch and it is brushed aside.
1) bravely default ii was already announced
It kinda is. You mentioned it being a good year for RPGs. Decent for sure, but only 3 stand out titles leaves some to be desired imo. Especially when if there's even 1 of the 3 you don't like then there's a mere 2 games to be excited for.
Probably me being overly hopeful, but I could see late July being the port month.
The 3DS was turning itself around in 2012 after a disastrous 2011. And the Wii U wasn't out until the end of the year, and didn't start selling poorly until 2013. They were not in panic mode during 2012, yet they found ways to fill-up Directs nearly every other month.
Yeah, maybe a few things got cut and this was originally a general direct. This covid-19 thing sucks, but that's the way of the world right now.
I mean come on now, a few years makes a big difference. Bioshock itself is 13 years old and the collection is 4 years old, and been on sale for different things tons of times. It's easy to see why it's a different reception now.
Yeah when I said august I had pikmin or 3dw in mind.
Oohh. My bad. I thought they restarted after every direct.
Old games. If the new recent Borderlands would release on Switch that would be an entirely different story.
I'm still getting that Burnout Paradise Remastered. Also despite having Borderlands Remastered on Steam, an actual portable Borderlands would be great.
No, but considering the wide accessibility of emulation and cheap collections/remasters there's a good chance you have access to a huge amount of new games. Hell, if you're subscribed to NSO you have access to 60+ NES and SNES Classics. That's a start.
It would also be a game or that everyone has already played or is not interested in.
They're not limited to a title per month.
The thought has crossed my mind but I do not think so at the moment
The writing wasn't "on the wall" for the Wii U at all during 2020. That's absolute fucking hindsight.
you don't need to get every game ever to have a backlog. Far from it
It's always been a loud minority of people here who have no rational thought. The majority of us weren't expecting BOTW2 to show up, but expecting a Wii U port is not unreasonable.
yup, there are a shocking amount of people who only play a select couple first party titles and whine when those aren't announced
Starting to think Western 3rd Parties have been right about Nintendo's demographics primarily being interested in Ninty games, and those games taking shine away from their releases at times. It's obviously the case with hardcore Nintendo fans at the very least.
You need to play every nes, snes, n64, gamecube, wii, wii u, gb, gbc, gba, ds, 3ds and switch game ever. That's just for nintendo.
The bigger the install base, the more people already palyed those games, the more people are left disappointed. Simple math.
