Remij

PSX games are perfectly playable as is. People are drama queens There's a reason why when remasters happen people wish things weren't filtered. PS1 chunky graphics

Direct competition... Don't act like you don't know what I'm talking about. If a person sees a $399 Switch, or a $399 Steam Deck.... they have a direct decision to make. That also is another thing... Switch is sold at retail... Steam Deck's aren't currently. They're not competing directly YET... If Valve puts Deck on shelves.. things could ramp up considerably. Valve is currently purposefully limiting their reach... they're admittedly still developing the platform. It's not ready for mass market yet... but if things go right for Valve it could be.. and it's simply i

You were responding directly to me though... and I never said anything like that. What I said was that the Switch 2 simply has to carry on the Switch's library.. and it obviously will. Naturally increasing the specs will influence what games can be ported to the device. Obviously it's not going to be a 3DS level device.. It will be around the Deck IMO. My skepticism comes from with regards to it being any better than that... considering the other obstacles in place. I don't believe Nvidia's Ampere efficiencies will make up the difference AND allow Switch 2 to be more performant at the sam

They don't have to hold up... They are what they were. What an incredible generation

It's the only other system that comes close.. but nah. PS1 even got a lot of the SNES' best games.

Nintendo has competition in that space now. It's up to Valve and other portable PC devices to see how far they're going to push it. You're laughing now, but things can change quickly, as Nintendo already has proven.

Dude, why are you even mentioning this? It has to run games that already run on Switch... that's it... Obviously it's going to be more powerful and thus will be able to run potential ports of more games than it could have before because of that... But nothing says those ports get made... Nothing says Nintendo is pushing for more 3rd party support. All we can safely assume at this point is that Nintendo wants a more powerful Switch to satisfy their own growing demands on hardware.

There's already rapidly growing competition in that space.

Ugh. Jesus fucking christ PS1 shits on PS2. Every day.

Who said anything about them throwing anything away? WTF are you talking about? The Switch 2.... needs to simply continue the Switch lineup... and be powerful enough for their future games. What makes you think Nintendo is designing the Switch 2 so that it gets most multiplat games?? I see them continuing on the same thing they are doing. Their own games first and foremost, less intensive 3rd party ports, and indies.

Steam Deck doesn't need to be a mass market device. Steam Deck just needs to be profitable to sell, and Valve can adapt production around the demands. That's the beauty of the Deck.. in that it completely piggybacks off the PC market. That market is already established and well ingrained. When you support one, you support the other in a way. If Valve could get a decent spec Steam Deck down to $299 in the future... that device could really take off. Valve isn't nearly ready for that to happen yet though. There's still a way to go before their system software, and the hardware

The WiiU utilized a regurgitated broadway architecture that they used before in the Wii and Gamecube..... It's hilarious to me that you think that the original Switch wasn't tailored to Nintendo at all... The original Switch was designed by Nintendo.. When you talk about companies like Nintendo or Sony "tailoring" chipset designs for themselves, it generally means cutting things down to suit their needs. Sony has done some work with AMD to incorporate new technologies into AMDs architecture, which suit Sony and their purposes. There's nothing to suggest that Nintendo will do an

I know that. The API and tools is the most important thing. Nvidia isn't designing a new chip architecture for Nintendo Since when has Nintendo ever not just used the cheapest option that was offered to them?

If they can get away with it then that's great for them. I mean, they're trying to solidify $70 for remakes of old games on their primary platform as well.

You think so huh? I'm not sure about that, at all. If it's using Ampere, then efficiencies aren't going to be much better than RDNA2. That's a fair point, but the Switch is already tailored to Nintendo in all the meaningful ways it can be. Nintendo's customization will come down to removing things to improve battery life

Wont be surprised when it's confirmed world wide.

They will be limited in what they can do, due to power constraints. Nintendo has far more stringent conditions to adhere to when it comes to their device's battery life. That's literally the only thing that has me concerned about the next Switch.. with regards to being much more performant than the Deck.

Happy Birthday PS1

They're doing right by their customers... the game is in flux due to things outside their control.

Oh come on... this has nothing to do with MS...

Spider-Man Remastered is also Sony's fastest selling PC release so far

Aww look @TLHBO Jerky's phone notified him letting him know that it was time to update his butthurt

Indeed! Steam is wasting their time with this when it really needs to implement a notification for when the nearest store has OLED tvs in stock

GMG is such a godly store
