A few Nintendo classics are available with Nintendo Switch Online, but this lineup -- and the strategy underlying it -- can be greatly improved.
The Epic Games Store has a GOTY Edition, AAA title they want you to add to your library.
This is a great looking list.
Summer Game Fest is happy to reveal the first 55 partners set to participate in SGF activities this June.
After its latest games didn't meet sales targets, Square Enix is going multiplatform but the company's track record isn't convincing.
Square Enix been multiplatform for decades, a few exclusively-deals doesn't make them any less multiplatform.
SE needs to go all in optimization. Broken PC ports won't help its case, especially with big releases like mainline Final Fantasy
It's actually simple. What doesn't inspire confidence is Square allocating their budgets on the wrong projects such as Forspoken, Avengers, Babylons Fall and Foamstars.
Square has always been multiplatform since PS3/360 days which 80 % of their games are. People kick up a fuss over PS exclusivity but not Nintendo which has more exclusive projects console exclusive from Square.
FF16 has done ok but not enough to fix the blunders that the past mistakes Square has made with some of their projects. FF7 Rebirth is unclear we'll see a PC release for sure so it's hard to say so far not as good as they would of liked.
Then again unrealistic expectations. If it weren't for Sony these games would at least had another 2 years development time. So some people need to be realistic in that regard.
Square Enix just really need to revise its expectations. Maybe consider a change in strategy on dev end as well. Multiplat will help for sure but only good games that are marketed well will sell
Remember that one time when Nintendo announced that they had shifted the bulk of their development resources over to the Switch... When the Wii U was still en vogue?
Four years later, all that hard work is finally paying off. Witness the ample amount of bare-bones remasters and re-releases. Including the "classic" 6 year old port of Super Mario Bros U - which is retailing for the same price as a AAA game.
Just make Virtual Console a thing on Switch already
I’m tired of Nintendo pricing their released games at full price, especially in the face of other rereleased games that get built from the ground up yet are still budget priced.
It is unfortunate that Nintendo puts more effort into stopping ROM sites rather than making their products more available.
There will be no Virtual Console while Classic Minis are in production. From a marketing point of view, it would be a dumb move to offer the games on Switch while the Minis are selling so well.
I'm just hoping that they get past the N64 mini and start putting games up for Switch, but who can tell but Nintendo?
