@@user-oj7co5wm8g Pretty sure he made that up. There are a lot of physical game stores (mostly in E-marts and big grocery markets), and they have dedicated playstation and Nintendo stores there. And yea, I've never seen anyone cloud game there, ever.
I think weve come to the point where tech have catched up to produce cheap fast ssd's and the hardware helping to make them more faster. im sure physical cartridges will still be on switch 2
NTM the new SD Express standard will facilitate maintaining a combination of speed and portability with digital copies. It's the big reason I haven't yet gotten myself a Steam Deck.
It's not that easy. An NVME speed is roughly 5-11GB/s An SD Card *max* is 300 MB/s SATA 3 is about 500GB/s SD Express(unreleased and in progress) will be only 2GB/s. Because modern New games require NVMe speeds *any* cart will not be fast enough. Or too expensive. If there are carts they'll be transferring files to storage for bigger games and running little nothing off the cart directly. Depends on the game. Smaller indie games and older games won't matter. New AAA stuff will. For example: Alan Wake 2 - It really needs and NVMe SSD. SATA isn't fast enough for how it switches scenes and all that
While I already expected Stellar Blade in 2024, I’m glad it’s official now. I don’t think 2024 will be as stacked with releases as 2023, but between Stellar Blade, FF7 Rebirth, Like a Dragon, Rise of The Ronin, Black Myth Wukong and The Thousand Year Door remake, 2024 is looking like a real good year for gaming and there’s still more to look forward to
Senua’s Saga Hellblade 2, Tekken 8, Little Nightmare 3, Princess Peach: Showtime, Rise of Ronin, Shadow of the Erd Tree Elden Ring DLC, Dragons Dogma 2, Shantae: Advanced, Alone In The Dark, DBZ Sparking Zero and potentially Silent Hill 2 Remake. On top of what you mentioned, in terms of AAA games and overall excitement for the mentioned games, 2024 is still shaping up to still be pretty big when you consider the mix of both high budget and indie titles.
Sony & Microsoft will probably have a showcase to show more games coming later + Nintendo with the switch 2 potentially could have a lot of surprises there.
Only Nintendo believes that. Unless they want to make the same mistake twice they they better face the market reality or literally pay 💰 for the consequences
My younger brother and I wanted better internet connection for our ps4 years ago. My dad went out of town for work for about 3 days. I drilled a hole through our hardwood floor behind the entertainment stand. Went and bought a 100 foot ethernet cable and wove it in the ceiling of the basement and fed it back to tbe living room where the router is. Works perfectly and my parents never knew even though we didn't hide it
“Sony needs to show us what’s coming out in the second half of this console generation (2024-2028)” *Next segment* “Is Microsoft showing off games too early with a goal to launch blade in 2027”?
Thank you for pointing this out. Gamers are like headless chicken with their narratives. One minute it's show us a road map for games that are years and years away, next minute it's: they are showing us games way too early. This is one of those things you just can't win on
I don't get excited about game reveals in general anymore.....if a game is announced early I'm like "ok cool" and that's it, the gaming industry is so complex now most games take 5 to 7 years to make, some get cancelled and some end up content starved like starfield or a disaster like redfall...and don't get me started on live service games being up a few months then abandoned.....
@@G360LIVE ya and I remember when games would launch whole and if a cheat or glitch is in the game the studio/developer would promote it in a game guide or magazine
So you expect a failure of a system. Like 70% of their system sales are handhelds. They would be stupid to do this especially after the switch proving that's all that matters.
@RunicSigils I do not. I feel that they would still stay with the switch concept which made it so popular but make it more powerful for it is severely underpowered so it can run games better and still be backwards compatible with the switch and then the dock can have more in it that can for example, run games in 4k or run bigger games like GTA or Red Dead 2 that require more processing power. They could also do what Sony and Xbox have been doing this generation and sale just the handheld at a cheaper price or pay a little more and get the upgraded switch and dock. If it works, why change.
How's this for an idea for the next Nintendo Switch console (You have to believe they'll try to keep some of the Switch identity, like they did with the Wii > Wii U) It still has a dock, but instead of slotting it in the middle, it "clicks" into place on the front, kind of like a phone charging dock, with the screen visible from the front. They'd then utilise an always-on-display to display graphics on the switch screen when docked, and when played with a controller when docked, games could utilise that screen for their own logos/graphics.
@@Adamtendo_player_1 considering the Switch's huge success, its successor will probably continue with the same branding, kind of what happened with the NES→Super NES, Game Boy→Game Boy Color→Game Boy Advance, Nintendo DS→3DS, Wii→WiiU. I know that out of all those consoles the WiiU was a failure, but its failure was due to a lot of factors
AI will never replace humans it makes too many mistakes. They said automatic elevators with no driver would replace humans and we still have technicians for that. In shops they have automatic payment tills and they still need staff to supervise them. AI if it gets relied upon will be highly dangerous as it can make huge mistakes.
I honestly think it's more dumb than dangerous. A lot of people keep thinking it's sentient and smart enough to be able to do things on its own. It's not anywhere near terminator levels and should always be thought of as a tool. That's what these idiot companies don't realize. Same with people using ai without thought.
I've numerous consoles around my house. Some I've hooked up wirelessly because of the difficulty relatively to location. With optical fiber - either type of connection, I don't notice a difference these days.
I definitely think games should be announced within the year that they expect it to be released. Any earlier and they can run the risk of funds drying up and fans being disappointed. (ie: kotr)
I could only see the dock having a gamecart slot for using Switch game carts if the next gen switch has a new format/cartridge, I've been seeing speculation of a new format that SD cards might be using will have a zinc heatsink to keep the memory cards cooler.
Once again the best way to start the day and end the work week….Spawn Wave gaming news…this weekend enjoying my new Series X…soloing Redfall and bending some corners in Forza Horizon 5!!
In film and TV, it's normal to announce a project long before it actually enters production. They just don't usually make an expensive trailer before any real work's been done.
I'd prefer to have my systems connected to an ethernet cable, but it's not convenient because of where the router is compared to my PC and game systems. For me, a wireless connection makes more sense, and it's more convenient.
Funny you discussed wired/wireless consoles here, as I'm watching this and putting up a small network wall rack in my home office/game room. I've always had my consoles and computers wireless, but now will have everything plugged into a switch. I'm in an apartment, so can't go making cable runs, so everything else will feed off a single Unifi AP.
Wow, planar magnetic headphones branded as a Playstation accessory. That might be worth a look, although I'd be interested in knowing the size of the plane, whether the magnets are single- or dual-sided, and what the impedance and power requirements look like.
I was completely not interested in another set of headphones, until i paid attention and read they are gonna have plants magnetic drives. Out of curiosity alone I’m definitely getting those.
I think 18 months is the sweet spot for announcing a game ahead of release. Do it too soon and (even if it releases) hype tends to die out before the game releases unless you're constantly providing substantial updates on the game.
I don't get why they never did port it to Switch games on it sell like crazy and it would have been the only way to play it portably before the steam deck came out
My consoles are using a wired connection. Powerline adapters make wired connections easy without needing to run Ethernet cords across your home and aren't too expensive. The adapters use the electric wires in your home to transfer Ethernet.
I have learned not to get hyped by a game until it is in my hands, because even when the game is announced a few months before release, it can still be canceled. Even when it gets announced a few months before release it can seriously disappoint upon arrival. I rather get hyped over the good games that are already out, than the over the ones still to come.
I'm also wondering if Nintendo released out the information about the Dock vs Handheld for Switch 2 to gauge public opinion would be. If they see it as positive, it might go through, if they see it as mostly negative, there's too much risk, thus they can back off safely and claim what you said that it's a rumour now due to a planned element at one point that was scrapped. However they would be smart to keep tabs on social media responses to see what their audience and fans are more likely to accept as a means to move forward.
@@NuiYabuko Why would you assume that? That's a relatively smart tactic in an age where it's harder to gauge audience approval, and find the right people to use as test groups. This would guarantee you get the core group of gamers who pay attention to these details. The people who spend the most on their games and are more dedicated towards a system. It gauges potential public opinion with larger numbers of the population than most test groups, by leaps and bounds. Nevermind would be insanely cheap. Are you an industry insider and simply know, or are you just tossing out guesses and assumptions because that's not something you see as being remotely plausible?
Making cartridges only work in docked mode does sound silly, but what if they went back to a disk based system, where you could download your games from the disk onto the device to play in handheld mode. Then they could sell a standalone handheld version without the dock, and you could buy the dock separately, like the new ps5 slim.
Maybe a slider to decrease grinding? I liked how in bloodborne you could invite another player in to help, not having voice chat made it hard to convey which button was sprint. Now all ps5 controllers have microphones, voice chat should be an option in more games even if it is age restricted.
On the one hand I really like how Nintendo mostly announces and releases their games within a few months. But then again, if these companies are open and public about what's going on I really don't mind early announcements. They should just be clear when to expect it at the earliest and openly communicate when a project gets cancelled. Gaming is really weird in that regard. Most other forms of media tend to just announce their projects years ahead of time and are fairly open with the process.
There's nothing weird about it, just look at how people react to official releases of concept art, they treat them like something was taken away from them. A game might start as a turn based RPG, then end up being an action adventure - and now you're dealing with all those gamers, who feel "betrayed". Why go through all that hassle? Plenty of devs share how the dev process works, do people listen? No, of course not.
@@NuiYabuko I would argue that a big part of this is the current culture of secrecy. People would react differently and be more knowledgeable if telling them about the process was standard practice and not rare exceptions.
Well, wireless internet has been great for quite some years now to the point where hardwire isn't needed. Hardwire is only needed if play fps shooters competitively, and even then, Wireless is still good enough. Hardwire just gets u that extra edge.
This, I agree. In my house, it's all wireless (I do have a Wi-Fi network extender though so I don't know if this counts), but I have very good speeds with my only issues being an occasional internet tripping or a ghost in the system. Wired connections aren't always needed, wireless is more convenient in its own ways, and that's good.
People consider wired a hassle but its really not. Go buy a 50ft cable and just plug in 2 sides, done. Run the cable along the outter perimeter to conceal it. The stability and reliability are definitely worth it. Especially if you consider yourself a "competitive" gamer
For me ethernet is the default. Even when I was gaming on a laptop, I would only use wifi if the ethernet was connected to my console at that moment. Not primary, but wifi is always convenient to have.
I remember people putting a toothpick in the 3DS joystick to make it stuck into place to have your character in pokemon move continuosly, to hatch eggs, so the AI doing stuff for you isn't a crazy idea, I mean, people already kinda does it
Man Sakurai cannot say a word without people losing their minds, that quote reads more like "I haven't quit the industry" and not "I'm working on a game right now"
8:40. Just how bad is the net in the states? As far as I'm aware data caps on home internet don't exist in the UK. Caps on data with phones but that's different. The speed is pretty good too and it's always on... Is America still like the early days of internet or something?
I want a trophy or achievement system on Switch like Microsoft and Sony has. Would give me reason to play older games again. I am sure Red Dead Redemption sold well and surprised Rockstar and since Switch got Red Dead original version and ran it fine the Xbox 360/ PS3 version GTA 5 would run as well so why not make more money off the game many people would love having it portable on their Switch.
I don’t care about GTA beyond the PS2 games and many Nintendo fans aren’t crying about GTA 6 not being on Switch 2 as Nintendo doesn’t need GTA, never has. But i agree with everything else you said about GTA V running well on Switch.
For the next Nintendo console, I wouldn't mind if Nintendo flagship smash with say a Melee-Deluxe Online. There would definitely be enough resources to bring Melee to the modern era with some additional features, characters etc, That might give Sakurai enough time to figure out what he may want to do with a potential new Smash entry, if at all.
I used to have my pc and console connected wirelessly but I felt like the connection wasn't super consistent. All my stuff is on wired connections now and it's just one less thing to worry about
Nintendo isn't the only company to announce a game too early. Ubisoft with G&E 2, Bethesda with ES6, CD Project Red with Cyberpunk and if course Valve with HL3
major game publishers should wait until a year to a year and half to announce new major titles,; they shouln't release a teaser for some new "triple A" game two to four years early as it sets excessively high expectations from gamers/consumers and encourages developers to have mega stressful "crunch" during development.
Happy New Year everyone! Also I'm a wireless guy here. I'm a heathen I know... But I've never had any problems gaming wirelessly and I don't plan on using Remote Play. Never cheap out on your router and you should be fine. Remember that almost all devices on your house connect to the internet these days.
@@CarbonMalite I dragged out my playthrough as long as possible, maxing out everything (besides character levels), got everyone to at least level 120+, got the best weapons & abilities for everyone, and still only took about 35 hours. It was fun, but I couldn't find any reason to go back & play it again.
SO3 is good, but there was another game that came before it that is in far more need of being remade - that being Star Ocean Blue Sphere. It was a direct sequel to SO2, but only saw Japanese releases on GBC and cell phones. We never got any version of the game outside Japan.
There’s no upside to early game announcements. I personally cannot maintain excitement from launch to release if that period stretches longer than a year or so.
I guess they make an early announcement as a way to test the idea; if there is not much initial traction, and the game gets into a troubled development, then it is easier to cancel it.
Sony ending their Japan studio really shows how big a mistake that was right now.

Indeed cloud gaming & many other things work better in Japan because their culture cares for one another unlike here in the west companies etc want ppl sperated over profits.
One day I would love to visit Japan & experience life over there.
@@user-oj7co5wm8g Pretty sure he made that up. There are a lot of physical game stores (mostly in E-marts and big grocery markets), and they have dedicated playstation and Nintendo stores there. And yea, I've never seen anyone cloud game there, ever.
I think weve come to the point where tech have catched up to produce cheap fast ssd's and the hardware helping to make them more faster. im sure physical cartridges will still be on switch 2
NTM the new SD Express standard will facilitate maintaining a combination of speed and portability with digital copies. It's the big reason I haven't yet gotten myself a Steam Deck.
It's not that easy.
An NVME speed is roughly 5-11GB/s
An SD Card *max* is 300 MB/s
SATA 3 is about 500GB/s
SD Express(unreleased and in progress) will be only 2GB/s.
Because modern New games require NVMe speeds *any* cart will not be fast enough. Or too expensive.
If there are carts they'll be transferring files to storage for bigger games and running little nothing off the cart directly.
Depends on the game. Smaller indie games and older games won't matter.
New AAA stuff will. For example: Alan Wake 2 - It really needs and NVMe SSD. SATA isn't fast enough for how it switches scenes and all that
While I already expected Stellar Blade in 2024, I’m glad it’s official now. I don’t think 2024 will be as stacked with releases as 2023, but between Stellar Blade, FF7 Rebirth, Like a Dragon, Rise of The Ronin, Black Myth Wukong and The Thousand Year Door remake, 2024 is looking like a real good year for gaming and there’s still more to look forward to
Senua’s Saga Hellblade 2, Tekken 8, Little Nightmare 3, Princess Peach: Showtime, Rise of Ronin, Shadow of the Erd Tree Elden Ring DLC, Dragons Dogma 2, Shantae: Advanced, Alone In The Dark, DBZ Sparking Zero and potentially Silent Hill 2 Remake.
On top of what you mentioned, in terms of AAA games and overall excitement for the mentioned games, 2024 is still shaping up to still be pretty big when you consider the mix of both high budget and indie titles.
Sony & Microsoft will probably have a showcase to show more games coming later + Nintendo with the switch 2 potentially could have a lot of surprises there.
Stacked lol
MS also having Avowed, Ara history Untold, Tower Borne, and possibly South of Midnight and Clockwork Revolution.
@@cbgg1585Eh will skip them all, wait for a sale, but will Immediately buy Dragon's Dogma 2 on launch.
That switch rumor is bs
Most are
I have high hopes for Stellar Blade. One of my most anticipated games of the new year.
Same.
Me too
Y'all just thirsty weebs
True definitely has potential I think that phantom blade 0 and Pragmata are the only games I care for on PS5.
Zzzzz
Nintendo says the current Switch still has some life left in it so it might be a while
All consoles had life left in them after the release of a new console
Only Nintendo believes that. Unless they want to make the same mistake twice they they better face the market reality or literally pay 💰 for the consequences
I’ve always said the current switch still has life left in it.
I dislike early game announcements, but I dislike Switch 2 rumors/news even more.
My younger brother and I wanted better internet connection for our ps4 years ago. My dad went out of town for work for about 3 days. I drilled a hole through our hardwood floor behind the entertainment stand. Went and bought a 100 foot ethernet cable and wove it in the ceiling of the basement and fed it back to tbe living room where the router is. Works perfectly and my parents never knew even though we didn't hide it
Happy holidays and a happy new year!
happy belated birthday Spawn Wave have a great new years brodie!
“Sony needs to show us what’s coming out in the second half of this console generation (2024-2028)”
*Next segment*
“Is Microsoft showing off games too early with a goal to launch blade in 2027”?
Thank you for pointing this out. Gamers are like headless chicken with their narratives. One minute it's show us a road map for games that are years and years away, next minute it's: they are showing us games way too early.
This is one of those things you just can't win on
I love "till the end of time" and would love to see an upgrade to that game.
Yes! Finally some news on Stellar Blade!
I hope Kirby Air Ride 2 is cooking in Sakurai's pot rn
I don't get excited about game reveals in general anymore.....if a game is announced early I'm like "ok cool" and that's it, the gaming industry is so complex now most games take 5 to 7 years to make, some get cancelled and some end up content starved like starfield or a disaster like redfall...and don't get me started on live service games being up a few months then abandoned.....
And when a game does launch, it's best not to buy it right away, since the patches and fixes are coming out within the next 6-12 months.
@@G360LIVE ya and I remember when games would launch whole and if a cheat or glitch is in the game the studio/developer would promote it in a game guide or magazine
I can see the successor for the switch being a more powerful switch and the dock can beef it up even more for games that can be played but dock only.
So you expect a failure of a system.
Like 70% of their system sales are handhelds. They would be stupid to do this especially after the switch proving that's all that matters.
@RunicSigils I do not. I feel that they would still stay with the switch concept which made it so popular but make it more powerful for it is severely underpowered so it can run games better and still be backwards compatible with the switch and then the dock can have more in it that can for example, run games in 4k or run bigger games like GTA or Red Dead 2 that require more processing power. They could also do what Sony and Xbox have been doing this generation and sale just the handheld at a cheaper price or pay a little more and get the upgraded switch and dock. If it works, why change.
Remember kids, a lackluster first party release year for PlayStation is still better than an entire console generation of releases for Xbox
Who cares, and this is coming from a 15 year old.
How's this for an idea for the next Nintendo Switch console (You have to believe they'll try to keep some of the Switch identity, like they did with the Wii > Wii U)
It still has a dock, but instead of slotting it in the middle, it "clicks" into place on the front, kind of like a phone charging dock, with the screen visible from the front. They'd then utilise an always-on-display to display graphics on the switch screen when docked, and when played with a controller when docked, games could utilise that screen for their own logos/graphics.
So basically a vmu, pocketstation or xbox smartglass.
Nintendo has to keep the Switch identity with the Switch successor as it was a game changer with its hybrid design.
Sounds like a gimmick.
@@user-qy2wf2lt6v That’s because it is one.
@@Adamtendo_player_1 considering the Switch's huge success, its successor will probably continue with the same branding, kind of what happened with the NES→Super NES, Game Boy→Game Boy Color→Game Boy Advance, Nintendo DS→3DS, Wii→WiiU. I know that out of all those consoles the WiiU was a failure, but its failure was due to a lot of factors
Am I the only one surprised Advance Wars reboot camp is still full price and has never been on sale?
AI will never replace humans it makes too many mistakes. They said automatic elevators with no driver would replace humans and we still have technicians for that. In shops they have automatic payment tills and they still need staff to supervise them. AI if it gets relied upon will be highly dangerous as it can make huge mistakes.
I honestly think it's more dumb than dangerous. A lot of people keep thinking it's sentient and smart enough to be able to do things on its own. It's not anywhere near terminator levels and should always be thought of as a tool. That's what these idiot companies don't realize. Same with people using ai without thought.
@@oldenoughtowatchallyoutube6761Thinknof all the vudeis with Tesla drivers sleeping...
At least they're being upfront about Blade's release window, unlike with certain other games
I've numerous consoles around my house. Some I've hooked up wirelessly because of the difficulty relatively to location. With optical fiber - either type of connection, I don't notice a difference these days.
If the cartridge slot in only on the dock, there should have a way to locally dump our own games to the internal storage.
I definitely think games should be announced within the year that they expect it to be released. Any earlier and they can run the risk of funds drying up and fans being disappointed. (ie: kotr)
I could only see the dock having a gamecart slot for using Switch game carts if the next gen switch has a new format/cartridge, I've been seeing speculation of a new format that SD cards might be using will have a zinc heatsink to keep the memory cards cooler.
I cannot wait to play Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, Rise Of The Ronin, and Stellar Blade! The latter two look enticing, hopefully they will be great!
All day one for me
Once again the best way to start the day and end the work week….Spawn Wave gaming news…this weekend enjoying my new Series X…soloing Redfall and bending some corners in Forza Horizon 5!!
In film and TV, it's normal to announce a project long before it actually enters production. They just don't usually make an expensive trailer before any real work's been done.
“Welcome back to newswave” …thanks… I think it’s been years since I’ve listened to one of these :- )
Gross 🤢 a digital only switch with a docked cartridge would be dumb.
Minish Cap is my favourite Zelda!!
I'm still mad that Scalebound got canceled after being announced. I was so excited to play that game. 😢
Blame the developer for redirecting MS Scalebound funds for a non-related-MS project
I'd prefer to have my systems connected to an ethernet cable, but it's not convenient because of where the router is compared to my PC and game systems. For me, a wireless connection makes more sense, and it's more convenient.
Funny you discussed wired/wireless consoles here, as I'm watching this and putting up a small network wall rack in my home office/game room. I've always had my consoles and computers wireless, but now will have everything plugged into a switch. I'm in an apartment, so can't go making cable runs, so everything else will feed off a single Unifi AP.
Wow, planar magnetic headphones branded as a Playstation accessory. That might be worth a look, although I'd be interested in knowing the size of the plane, whether the magnets are single- or dual-sided, and what the impedance and power requirements look like.
I was completely not interested in another set of headphones, until i paid attention and read they are gonna have plants magnetic drives. Out of curiosity alone I’m definitely getting those.
Ngl I'd buy a star Ocean 3 remake immediately. 2R is a fantastic game.
John -This boss is too hard - can you beat this boss for me AI?
AI - Sure John, that will be $5 thanks.
I can imagine Nintendo going fully cloud streaming only one day in order to make piracy impossible
I would love to see a brand new Star Ocean that goes back to the roots with that 2.5D style like Star Ocean 2nd Story.
Have all of my stuff now wireless, since finally having equipment capable of WiFi 6. Just as fast now as when I used wired connections.
i have two 50m ethernet cables running up the entire of the house lol. had a LAN in the 90s and never looked back
Switch 2 will be announce next month January, will be reveal in March & will be release in September 2024 ❤
Wrong wrong and wrong that’s not going to happen. Nintendo won’t piss off new switch owners that got the switch this holiday season.
I think 18 months is the sweet spot for announcing a game ahead of release. Do it too soon and (even if it releases) hype tends to die out before the game releases unless you're constantly providing substantial updates on the game.
Cyberpunk, Tears of the Kingdom and Starfield prove that statement wrong.
I don't get why they never did port it to Switch games on it sell like crazy and it would have been the only way to play it portably before the steam deck came out
My consoles are using a wired connection. Powerline adapters make wired connections easy without needing to run Ethernet cords across your home and aren't too expensive. The adapters use the electric wires in your home to transfer Ethernet.
With devices like the ASUS rog ally, the "switch 2" is D.O.A. it'll be another wiiu situation for sure. Most of us have moved on luckily.
LOL lay off the drugs kid
Companies have been announcing games too early. Its better IMO if they encourage rumors and announce officially later.
I have learned not to get hyped by a game until it is in my hands, because even when the game is announced a few months before release, it can still be canceled. Even when it gets announced a few months before release it can seriously disappoint upon arrival. I rather get hyped over the good games that are already out, than the over the ones still to come.
My pc is currently wireless, with plans to run wired; and consoles are not connected to the internet.
Spawnwave Video Title Bingo:
1. Switch
2. Strange
3. Rumour
4. Interesting
5. Explodes
6. Pro
Not gonna lie, the 'AI resource autogrind' part (except for leveling) sounds quite nice for some more tedious games.
I'm also wondering if Nintendo released out the information about the Dock vs Handheld for Switch 2 to gauge public opinion would be. If they see it as positive, it might go through, if they see it as mostly negative, there's too much risk, thus they can back off safely and claim what you said that it's a rumour now due to a planned element at one point that was scrapped.
However they would be smart to keep tabs on social media responses to see what their audience and fans are more likely to accept as a means to move forward.
That's not how any of that works.
@@NuiYabuko Why would you assume that? That's a relatively smart tactic in an age where it's harder to gauge audience approval, and find the right people to use as test groups. This would guarantee you get the core group of gamers who pay attention to these details. The people who spend the most on their games and are more dedicated towards a system.
It gauges potential public opinion with larger numbers of the population than most test groups, by leaps and bounds. Nevermind would be insanely cheap.
Are you an industry insider and simply know, or are you just tossing out guesses and assumptions because that's not something you see as being remotely plausible?
Making cartridges only work in docked mode does sound silly, but what if they went back to a disk based system, where you could download your games from the disk onto the device to play in handheld mode. Then they could sell a standalone handheld version without the dock, and you could buy the dock separately, like the new ps5 slim.
Maybe a slider to decrease grinding? I liked how in bloodborne you could invite another player in to help, not having voice chat made it hard to convey which button was sprint. Now all ps5 controllers have microphones, voice chat should be an option in more games even if it is age restricted.
I can't believe is being 6 years since Metroid Prime 4 was reveal.
On the one hand I really like how Nintendo mostly announces and releases their games within a few months.
But then again, if these companies are open and public about what's going on I really don't mind early announcements. They should just be clear when to expect it at the earliest and openly communicate when a project gets cancelled.
Gaming is really weird in that regard. Most other forms of media tend to just announce their projects years ahead of time and are fairly open with the process.
Being clear with gamers is an impossible task. Cyberpunk proved that gamers will not listen to developers at all no matter what they say.
There's nothing weird about it, just look at how people react to official releases of concept art, they treat them like something was taken away from them. A game might start as a turn based RPG, then end up being an action adventure - and now you're dealing with all those gamers, who feel "betrayed". Why go through all that hassle? Plenty of devs share how the dev process works, do people listen? No, of course not.
@@NuiYabuko I would argue that a big part of this is the current culture of secrecy. People would react differently and be more knowledgeable if telling them about the process was standard practice and not rare exceptions.
Well, wireless internet has been great for quite some years now to the point where hardwire isn't needed. Hardwire is only needed if play fps shooters competitively, and even then, Wireless is still good enough. Hardwire just gets u that extra edge.
This, I agree. In my house, it's all wireless (I do have a Wi-Fi network extender though so I don't know if this counts), but I have very good speeds with my only issues being an occasional internet tripping or a ghost in the system. Wired connections aren't always needed, wireless is more convenient in its own ways, and that's good.
The kotor remake is a much better example of a game being announced to early then cancelled.
People consider wired a hassle but its really not. Go buy a 50ft cable and just plug in 2 sides, done. Run the cable along the outter perimeter to conceal it. The stability and reliability are definitely worth it. Especially if you consider yourself a "competitive" gamer
For me ethernet is the default. Even when I was gaming on a laptop, I would only use wifi if the ethernet was connected to my console at that moment. Not primary, but wifi is always convenient to have.
I remember people putting a toothpick in the 3DS joystick to make it stuck into place to have your character in pokemon move continuosly, to hatch eggs, so the AI doing stuff for you isn't a crazy idea, I mean, people already kinda does it
That future sounds expensive. I doubt there will be a time when we all get free or cheap fast stable Internet.
You should make another "dev kit" video for the Switch 2, just like you did with the current one. I still crack up with that video.
There is a feature on the perfect world game that actually automatically attacks nearby mobs and a pick up coins and loot
Man Sakurai cannot say a word without people losing their minds, that quote reads more like "I haven't quit the industry" and not "I'm working on a game right now"
Stellar Blade will be huge. Hopefully, it's a good game.
It just blows my mind that out of all the remakes & HD-2D games from Square, there's still no Chrono Trigger HD-2D remake.
8:40. Just how bad is the net in the states? As far as I'm aware data caps on home internet don't exist in the UK. Caps on data with phones but that's different. The speed is pretty good too and it's always on... Is America still like the early days of internet or something?
I want a trophy or achievement system on Switch like Microsoft and Sony has. Would give me reason to play older games again. I am sure Red Dead Redemption sold well and surprised Rockstar and since Switch got Red Dead original version and ran it fine the Xbox 360/ PS3 version GTA 5 would run as well so why not make more money off the game many people would love having it portable on their Switch.
I don’t care about GTA beyond the PS2 games and many Nintendo fans aren’t crying about GTA 6 not being on Switch 2 as Nintendo doesn’t need GTA, never has. But i agree with everything else you said about GTA V running well on Switch.
For the next Nintendo console, I wouldn't mind if Nintendo flagship smash with say a Melee-Deluxe Online. There would definitely be enough resources to bring Melee to the modern era with some additional features, characters etc, That might give Sakurai enough time to figure out what he may want to do with a potential new Smash entry, if at all.
What if the dock slot was the way they got around backwards compatibility?
I remember way back only provider in my area was Comcast and it was terrible those were dark days
If Stellar Blade is an online-only Free-to-Play game, any and all hype I had around the game just jumped off a cliff while wearing a cinderblock.
I used to have my pc and console connected wirelessly but I felt like the connection wasn't super consistent. All my stuff is on wired connections now and it's just one less thing to worry about
The Paper Mario 64 decompilation project reached 100% a few months ago as well
Nintendo isn't the only company to announce a game too early. Ubisoft with G&E 2, Bethesda with ES6, CD Project Red with Cyberpunk and if course Valve with HL3
major game publishers should wait until a year to a year and half to announce new major titles,;
they shouln't release a teaser for some new "triple A" game two to four years early as it sets excessively high expectations from gamers/consumers and encourages developers to have mega stressful "crunch" during development.
Happy New Year everyone! Also I'm a wireless guy here. I'm a heathen I know... But I've never had any problems gaming wirelessly and I don't plan on using Remote Play. Never cheap out on your router and you should be fine. Remember that almost all devices on your house connect to the internet these days.
I just finished Star Ocean 2R. Amazing presentation, kind of short with lots of different endings for replayability, pretty fun gameplay loop!
How many hours did you put into Star Ocean?
@@nintendonintendont 20 hours on normal mode, kind of just blazing through the main campaign & not focusing on too much side-content
About 75ish endings to go. 😶
@@matthewferguson6524 But how different are these endings? Just different combinations of characters doesn't really feel worth it.
@@CarbonMalite I dragged out my playthrough as long as possible, maxing out everything (besides character levels), got everyone to at least level 120+, got the best weapons & abilities for everyone, and still only took about 35 hours.
It was fun, but I couldn't find any reason to go back & play it again.
Arkane definitely put that Blade announcement out to start hiring people.
Did you say next generation Nintendo and rumor in the same sentence? Time for RGT to spam RUclips with 30+ plus Switch 2 rumor videos.
Switched up 4k
SO3 is good, but there was another game that came before it that is in far more need of being remade - that being Star Ocean Blue Sphere. It was a direct sequel to SO2, but only saw Japanese releases on GBC and cell phones. We never got any version of the game outside Japan.
There’s no upside to early game announcements. I personally cannot maintain excitement from launch to release if that period stretches longer than a year or so.
I guess they make an early announcement as a way to test the idea; if there is not much initial traction, and the game gets into a troubled development, then it is easier to cancel it.
STILL WAITING FOR ANYTHING FABLE RELATED.
