In the first online presentation since September 2019, Nintendo has finally given us some updates, and boy do they look juicy. Here are KnowTechie's favorite picks.
The Persona / Shin Megami Tensei cosplay gathering allowed fans of the acclaimed JRPG series to meet up during FanimeCon 2024.
Frame generation technology has arrived on consoles, amplifying frame-rates and potentially transforming experiences.
adds between 8.3-15.3 milliseconds of latency on the game they tested, - no thanks
Impressive results... sadly I don't have a 120hz display. I was thinking this technique could increase fps on any game that supports it regardless of the display.
Now I've extensively tried it I'm not too fussed about 120 fps. Give me a locked 60 and more details and I'm more than happy
The Epic Games Store has yet another free game, and it's a pretty damn good one.
This direct was hardly representative of what is coming for Switch this year. Some of the other confirmes games for 2021 that were not in the direct are...
Monster Hunter Rise
Monster Hunter Stories 2
SMTV
SMT Nocturne
Persona 5 Scramble
Disgaea 6
Ys IX
Rune Factory 5
Title is a bit misleading, as these games a comimg up in the next few months but were not in ghe direct.
"Juicy"? It looks dry like a barren wasteland. Actually a barren wasteland would be more interesting than what's slated for release in the foreseeable future.
Nintendo has become almost as big a failure as M$ when it comes to 1st party releases. Mario Golf and Animal Daycare? "New info on Botw2 in 2021"??? Are you f$#@ing kidding me? Where IS botw2? Where's Bayo3, Metroid prime and a Mario Kart that's NOT just a port? When will we get ANY real 1st party game that's not just a WiiU port? They're probably holding their 1st party stuff back, waiting to release it on the Switch's successor.
Nintendo haven’t milked Mario Golf as with Mario Tennis, but somehow, Mario Golf isn’t big news. Surprised with Splatoon 3. Dream Nintendo Direct spanning the year would be Wave Rave 4, Pilotwings, Blast Corps 2, Stunt Race FX 2, Legend of the Mystical Ninja (2D), an entirely new Ghosts ‘n’ Goblins, Mario Kart 9, Outrun 3, SEGA classic collection finally moving onto Saturn and Dreamcast classics, F-Zero, Baku Baku Animal 2 instead of Tetris and Puyo Puyo. Seems lightgun games have died a slow death over the years. 1080 Snowboarding 3, Snowboard Kidz 3.
As a owner of all 3 consoles, I am not that hyped. While I will have some fun with Mario Golf with my son, most games I see on switch recently are ports or remasters. I would rather see full remakes in some cases.
I mean, the big exclusives new games in 2020 were Animal Crossing New Horizons, and Hades. Wasn't super impressed with Zelda warriors and Paper Mario Origami king.
Now in 2021 only Mario Golf in the horizon. I mean right now where it's at I think the lack of 3rd party support for Big Titles begin to show...
Can't help but to feel their big games announced like Bayonetta 3, Metroid 4 and Zelda Breath of the Wild 2 will be titles pushed on the release date of the new switch model to release on both and help the sales of the new system.
