The Outerhaven writes: The Nintendo Switch has had plenty of big hits, but perhaps to help its successor, some of its "lesser hits" could get ported with some "upgrades."

Yea so the fanboys can pay 70 bucks for ports this time around. As if if wasn't bad enough with all the Wii U ports and 3DS ports that have taken up most of Ninty's releases these last few years. We should be pushing for backwards compatibility instead of giving them the idea that they can charge full price AGAIN for games already bought.

The sad realization about Nintendo is they don't care about BC. Look at what've done to pretty much every console. Look at the SNES Mini. Look at Nintendo Switch Online. They do what they want, regardless of what the people have asked.

The hope is the next console supports BC, but let's look at Nintendo's track history. It sucks, it does, but sadly, that' Nintendo.

Wii games were BC with Gamecube games, GBA were BC with GAmeboy games, DS were BC with GBA and 3ds were BC with DS games so yeah those ad a good track record.

The Switch doesn't have BC support with anything. The SNES didn't have BC with the NES. The N64 didn't have BC with the SNES. The Gamecube didn't have BC with the N64.

Tit for a tat.

The likes of Pilotwings, 1080 Snowboarding, Stunt Race FX, F-Zero and Wave Race especially have all been canned by Nintendo. The Switch saw a number of Wii U ports, but not even Splatoon and Mario Maker made the cut, maybe a few others. Seems Nintendo likes to bang the same drum these days.

DefaultComment47d ago

Those games didnt made the cut cause they made theoir respective sequels on the Switch, Mario Maker 2, Splatoon 2 and 3 so why bother porting those when they already had their sequels?

D0nkeyBoi47d ago

No more ports or remakes of recently released stuff. Enough is enough. Just make Switch 2 be backwards compatible with maybe some boosts on older games using the improved iGPU/cpu.

adamwparker47d ago

Ported Switch games? Uuuuh, no. Not subscribing to that nonsense.

Make the device backward compatible!

If the Switch 2 is BC then this is not necessary.
