But he's still firm that physical games aren't going away.
Music to our ears.
“There is a lot of talk about A.I., for example. When that happens, everyone starts to go in the same direction, but that is where Nintendo would rather go in a different direction."
Good on Nintendo for not chasing the next big thing.
Always? I feel the last time off the top of my head that they were innovative was the 3DS/Wii era. They are very successful at what they do but I wouldn't say they are as innovative as they used to be.
Your opinion is correct. There's no denying Nintendo's influence on the handheld market that's paved the way for the ROG, Steam Deck, MSI Claw etc but apart from the dock to get a small jump in power, it wasn't really revolutionary, even back when it launched. It was a more refined concept of the Wii U which again wasn't new or groundbreaking back then either.
LOL simply because they don't want to invest in it and stick to their outdated approach. See the next pokemon game on Switch 2 will look like something that should come out during the PS3 gen
So a custom art style vs GTA trilogy style mistakes through their games
I'll take the art style thanks
“I would like to say that there’s a lot of space for very high quality games," says Yves Guillemot.
" very high quality "
That's only true for one of the two though, and we all know which one that'll be.
I promise, only one of them will.
And it's the one that is the better franchise and respects the historical context of the region.
Dude’s getting the sweat because star wars outlaws underperformed, and that’s with far smaller controversy compared to AC shadows.
Well of course, but AC: Shadows will be on more platforms so I would expect it to sell more than Ghost.
Ubisoft announced on recent earnings calls that it has already recouped the cost of Activision/Blizzard streaming rights - which were only between €50M and €100M.
Good. Fight the good fight!
Keep up the physical copies I’ll keep buying PS and Nintendo consoles.
One high end console has always been a benefit. The other is no longer a necessity.
Only competition there ever was, was when one launched a year to a year and a half early. Based on this generation, the other would have to launch 2 to 4 years early just to compete. Because buying a huge part of the industry, having a multiple game sleep mode, cheaper in price, smaller form factor, supposedly having better BC and a day one subscription service, has still resulted in another huge ass kicking.
Yay for physical Take Two.
I wouldn't really call it competing when a company is dead last in sales when compared to the rival company. I will always stick around for physical copies of games. Moment games go all digital is the day I bring the SNES and Genesis out of hibernation and just stick to retro.
The voice of resounding sanity.
