But that screenshot proves that no remake is necessary. Does that not look perfect already? Literally pictures of real people slapped onto 3D models. Photo realism, done. Perfected. No one else, besides the classic Mortal Kombat games, has had the courage to make a game out of straight up photographs of real people. Max Payne had the best graphics. The MOST graphics. THE PHOTO GRAPHICS.
I don’t doubt it… Nintendo is always years behind.
The PS5 came out in 2020 and this Switch2 is probably a year away. So that would make their hardware be roughly 4 years old in terms of power. Plus if this is roughly the size of the current Switch, it won’t be pushing more than HD-resolutions (current Switch is only a 720 display), so getting PS5-level graphics on a 1080 screen these days is not particularly complicated or expensive.
Current switch does 1080 docked already , so while I hope it’ll have at least 4k menus and 4k light games, I’d settled for 1080 again with some sorta more advanced AA for first party games
God of war 2016 PS 4 original setting at 720p on steam deck is about 30 fps. On ROG Ally afew frames less if you run it at 15 watts, at 45 watts Ally can probably do 720p at 50ish fps but less than an hour of battery. Ally is the top of line 2023 AMD tech apu and cost $700. Mobile technology is amazing right now, but it’s just not at a level where it can do 3 years old desktop graphics at a reasonable cost/power consumption.
Nintendo and The Pokémon Company filed a lawsuit against Pocketpair in Japan last year, alleging that Palworld infringes on three patents that are related to monster catching gameplay, including summoning Pals by throwing Pal Spheres, and using Pals as vehicles like gliders.
Indication of how protective vs aggressive Nintendo uses it’s patents.
How similar vs novel do you feel pal world is to Pokemon?
“Typically, when a customer purchases a hacked console or the circumvention services, Defendant preinstalls on the console a portfolio of ready-to-play pirated games, including some of Nintendo’s most popular titles such as its Super Mario, The Legend of Zelda, and Metroid games.”
Yeah, that’ll bring the hammer down every time.
We can argue about the legality and morality of mod chips all day long, but building a business on distributing pirated software (and software that’s still being actively sold, at that) is a legal slam dunk.
Nintendo might have still tried something, even with just the mod chips, just to try and strongarm someone into submission. However, distributing the games just seems incredibly dumb to me, and might be the main reason they were able to get this settlement.
TL;DR future versions of the digital console with come with only 825GB of storage but still cost the same as the current version which has 1TB of storage. AKA shrinkflation.
And a really shitty one, price difference between those two for a manufacturer ordering things in massive quantity is barely anything. Sony saves $5 per console, users lose 20% of their storage.
The ceo is the son of one of the founders of Inuit, the turbotax/quickbooks company. Hes even on sliptgates board.
The owner is pure nepo and will never face any consequence for failure. Its pretty easy to see why they dont care about killing the company and fucking the employees.
It really is. I would go as far as to call it a clickbait article. The title is intriguing but the only addition to the statement is that that the era is over because every game doesn't need to release with something new. And that's essentially the whole article as the rest is just filler.
I am pretty sure the “every game doesn’t need something new” era had already started in the mid-80s. And new mechanics, and new takes on old ones, still happen.
The reason that games are even hosted on “official” servers like these is to ensure the company can take the game down once the devs run out of time o the contract they made for all the IP’s they use in said game. Otherwise its possible AND has been done before to let the players machines spin up a server each match.
That could be one reason, at least in a game such as MultiVersus with different IPs being used.
But they still lock down servers to their own shit when they own it all anyway and it’s because they also sell you crap to have in the game. If you had your own server, you could just give yourself the stuff they sell since all those things are still in the game somewhere and the only barrier between you and the content is their servers checking to see if you paid for them.
