What is something (feature, modes, settings...) you would like to see become a standard in video games?

Jump

  • Gyroscope controls. Especially for first-person shooters and other first-person games. I used to be a diehard mouse and keyboard player when it came to FPSes until I played Quake 1 on the Switch with gyro controls turned on. Now I'm trying to find ways to be able to play every FPS in my collection on a TV with gyro aim because it just feels so much better.

    • Nintendo Switch Successor Rumored To Have Been Shown To Press/Devs At Gamescom

  • I believe by dual screen + console + flop they meant the dual screen setup the Wii U had.

    • What are some game genres / styles you like that aren't being made anymore, or are being mde but not very often?

    Jump

  • RPGs in the style of the Ultima games, specifically ones that use a keyword-based conversion system. Aside from the Ultima series itself, the only other examples I know of that use a system like this are Cythera - a 1990s Macintosh shareware game that was very similar to Ultima 6 and 7 - and The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind.

  • This is what they mean by all the "real American" rhetoric. It's a rhetorical shortcut to ignore the increasing popularity of economic and social policies they don't like and declare the ones they do like are the only ones that count.

  • Sounds like Threads has lost the thread...

    I'll see myself out.

    • Developers and Analysts Sound Off: Does the Next-Gen Nintendo Switch Need to Happen in 2024?

  • Nintendo has never been very successful going after the high-end market.

    This is 100% correct and worth emphasizing, since I think a lot of people don't understand Nintendo's history with this.

    They tried to aim for a more premium console with the N64 and the Gamecube, and the result was Sony ate their lunch. Then they came out with the Wii -- widely derided for being underpowered and gimmicky -- and it was a hugely popular financial success. Nintendo knows by now what works for them and what doesn't.

    • Have You Ever Considered a Dumbphone or Do You Currently Use One?

    Jump

  • I used a dumbphone up until 2017. I actually still have it, it's just not hooked up to service anymore. I can still turn it on and play Galaga or Final Fantasy I and II though!

    • Songs you later found out were covers.
