TalkBack / RE:Iwata Comments on Nintendo Next Generation
« on: January 13, 2004, 01:10:57 PM »
I beleive this is what Iwata meant when he mentioned that "systems have reached their limits" which was how a member of your forum put it:
"What I'm getting at is, the technology we have now is more than sufficient to make games look like whatever you want them to look like. " I beleive he meant it from a technology standpoint. Just remember this. Why get a new beer unless your not done with the one you have in your hand (ok so that doesnt make any sense right now and im jonesing for a drink but bear with me). Nintendos next hardware will be more powerfull than the gamecube but since we havent tapped into all of Gamecube capabilities, there really isnt that big of a need of an improvement (in graphical power). Lets say were only using 3 4ths of its power. If we havent gotten everything that we could have, what good is bringing out more hardware just for the hell of it. What nintendo wants to do is make sure that ITS ADVANCING ON A GAMEPLAY STANDPOINT as they need to. Not just a graphical one. This is why thers a need for the Mystery Machine. Nintendo's own Miyamoto and Iwata have been saying that they personaly didnt like the fact that in games like Zelda, the game player would go over to a lever and press a button which would make Link perform an action. What they want is for the gameplayer to actually pull down levers or hit swithes themeselves somehow. They which to "enable fun and movement not seen before". Comments like these lead me to beleive that theis new game product will be some sort of sensor (technology that is used in light guns) where the player would point a device and their television or use thier hands to actually have to move and perform actions in the game. On the subject of "Marionette" which Miyamoto said was in development. he mentioned that it was not a new mario game or had nothing to do with Nintendo going online but was actually a marionette game where the game player would use a marionette as a controler instead of the gamepad. With comment like "this will be the year that we put up a serious fight with this new product" it makes me feel that whatever nintendo has up its sleeve, its confident that it WILL work and be entertaining to "anyone who plays it". Whatever it is i will be BIG. Not just another Pokemon mini or Donky Konga. Remember Nintento wants it to become "a third piller to the Gamecube and GBA." And it will be a hint for things to come on the next hardware. IM SORRY IF THIS DIDNT MAKE ALOT OF SENSE OR IF ITS CONFUSING. IM A REPORTER NOT A WRITER (AND IM CANADIAN EH). LOL. Later
