No it will not be current enough to do the exact same games PS4 does at the exact same level of tech, but that is the point, these will not be the exact same versions of those games they will be completely tailored to this play style.
...
Will it have the same Tomb Raider as the other two? No, I hope not, I have a PS4 for that. Most people do, or an Xbox 1. It will have its very own exclusive Tomb Raider that is tailor made for the Nintendo play style.
This is doing a fantastic job of destroying my enthusiasm for the Switch. "Nintendo tailored" third party games are ****. That drove me up the wall with the Wii - give the PS360 owners the REAL game while some the B team pumps out some dumbed down nonsense for the Nintendo audience. If it works like this we'll get some shovelware spin-offs at first and then those wont' sell for obvious reasons and we'll be right back to nothing but first party games.
I'll want to replace the 3DS anyway but then the Switch has to get the sort of third party games that the 3DS gets, if those types of games even get made anymore as they tend to be quirky smaller budget Japanese games. But then the price matters a lot more to me then it does if it actually pulls of the hybrid concept. If it's getting decent third party support on the console front while being a good 3DS successor then the price can be higher. If a PS4 or XB1 purchase is still essentially mandatory to get a proper console experience then it has to be real cheap.
But then a game like Persona V was made for the PS4 and PS3 so why couldn't it show up on the Switch? Or something like Dragon Quest Builders was also on the Vita so why wouldn't it work? The Switch could easily get games like that without it being some Nintendo tailored title. It could be the same title but maybe it doesn't look quite as nice. I would be sold on the Switch if I get most of the same games the other consoles get and maybe they don't look quite as nice but that's acceptable to achieve portability and then I get Nintendo first party games as well.
Probably because you ALREADY OWN a PS4 and you will play those full versions there? Nintendo is an AND console, deal with it that is the reality. Switch is not going to change that. What it is going to change is the output of games, that's it. If ALL you want is the exact same games you can ALREADY get on PS4 then why bother? I mean that makes no sense Ian, it sounds like you just want to own a Nintendo branded Playstation, but you still buy Playstation.
You proved my point Ian, you are the very customer that still buys the Nintendo handheld for the Nintendo games and picks up the Playstation console for the Playstation games, are you really going to sit there and tell me, US, the whole world that you will suddenly sell your Playstation for the Switch? No you are not you are going to own both machines, the Playstation will be your HOME console, the Switch will be your handheld but it doubles as a home console.
I get the impression some people still think that Nintendo is going to get back to SNES levels of dominance, that will never happen, they got that way ILLEGALLY, it would be impossible for them to get back, even if they made a PS4 clone spec wise, or a PS5 clone spec wise. This is the best they can do, if you STILL just want Mario games on a PS4, then get in touch with those Dolphin hackers and contribute to the coding of a PS4 emulator to play Mario games.
Ian you yourself compared this to Wii and then started talking about 3DS, do you own a 3DS or not? Are you not one of the vocal champions of how great it is? It sounds to me like this is exactly what you want but then you say you just want a PS4 that plays Nintendo games. But you already own a PS4. Its still a separate market. Its the AND console but this time it will reach more people because this time it combines the handheld, oh god I give up. forget it.
I don't how this is so hard to grasp. Especially the same people who sit here and say they don't want to buy a PS4 because they aren't into the games but they want the Nintendo to HAVE those games! I mean grr that is damn frustrating.
The ENTIRE issue has always and ONLY been lack of games. NOBODY is going to buy a Machine that just plays the SAME GAMES, they either 1, already can play on their Playstation machine, or 2, aren't interested in the first place! I mean I THOUGHT you all wanted more 3rd party support, I THOUGHT that meant more games that play like Nintendo games and more games from companies that bring the mainstream stuff over but tailor it for the console. I don't mean cut features Ian, I mean like they always do make the game that works on this machine. This machine that will have a Street Fighter when even Xbox can't get that, because of the legal loop hole. Oh but you don't want Street Fighter because you already have it on PS5 you just want it to EXIST on Switch because...!??!?!?
If this was a Home console yes you would want the home console games but Nintendo lost that battle, even the massively successful Wii still didn't get the SAME games it got Wii games. This is going to be that but closer in specs. We don't know how powerful it will be, it might even be like you just said a situation where it gets the PS3 port scaled UP! HELLO are you not see how this is different!? This is GOING to have 3rd party support, this is the HAND HELD levels of support and console levels combined, how is that not resonating?
You touched on it with the combined teams, but you seem to be ignoring that 3rd parties will still bring their games to this thing if it sells and you know what if you just want the EXACT same games that are on the PS4 then buy a fucking PS4 and get this later.
This is NOT Game Cube this is NOT Wii this is a NEW DS that hooks to your TV.
