Nintendo Switch 2 Will Be A "Conservative Hardware Evolution"; To Feature Full Backward Compatibility, 1080p Screen

Jump

  • That is great to known, I never had a Wii Mini and lot of the information on the web regarding this seem to be outdated or wrong. Last information I had was that backwards compatibility is completely missing with the mini. Thank you for clarification

  • Yes and no. The latest released Wii (the Wii mini) lost GameCube compatibility due to hardware changes.

  • Well, and the Gameboy is not the ancestor to the SNES so backwards compatibility is out of the window completely. Yes, I know that the Super Gameboy is only a unfitting contender, that's why I said "kind of" in my post.

  • And the GameCube compatibility of the Wii was just original GameCube hardware inside of the Wii doing all the work. Same with PS2 hardware inside the PS3.

    Having dedicated hardware inside for compatibility is not uncommon

  • It "kind of" was with the Super Gameboy allowing for Gameboy games to run on the SNES. Buy yeah, more like a sideways compatibility

  • I really like Fallout 3 but the ton of invisible walls and the shitty metro tunnels turn it into a game I often hate to play.

  • Yes, but often those countries come with their own huge bag of problems.

    But sure those are possible heavens for the software, if problems like payment to sanctioned countries can be solved. Bitcoin and other crypto comes there in mind, but the EU, for example, wants to closely monitor crypto currency so that has to be accounted for.

    All not that easy and it can get highly criminal very fast.

    • Original Fallout lead Tim Cain loves the new show, but remains baffled by how 'destructive' fans can act toward 'people who are trying to create things'

    Jump

  • It is from the show but it was part of every single trailer, not much to spoil in that regard.

  • It is not the same engine but a ever evolved one. Saying that it is the same engine would be like saying that UE5 is the same engine as UE1

    • Gameplay mechanics were also a lot better with more replayability.

    Jump

  • Comparing modern game with games from the olden days is a little bit like comparing a savery steam pump with a modern internal combustion engine. Sure the general principles are identical but the complexity of the system is a manifold of the other.

    I really love retro games, i have very fond memories of the C64 and SNES, but i am not a fan of the glorification of those games. Only a small part of the old games are still fun today and lots of them have bugs. Secret of Mana on the SNES for example has a fun bug where leveling all weapons and spells to max can create a overflow error in the final fight of the game, which removes the mana hero completely from the game, rendering the last fight impossible because only the mana hero can damage the mana dragon significantly.

    • Which video games have been trapped on a hardware platform (console/handheld/headset/etc.) that you wish would be ported well?

    Jump

  • Xenoblade Chronicles X

    I own it on the WiiU and yes I can use an emulator but a proper port which better integrates the content from the second screen into a one screen interface would be great.

  • Casino in the void always had the vibe of a TOS script transplanted into TNG, the few episodes that I watched from TOS all had the same campiness and stage acting. I think that's what makes it so terrible, it stands out like a sore thumb.

  • First seasons often get a bonus for me when judging a show, it all has to find together and that often needs some time. That's why I gave Discovery three seasons to win me over, I really tried to like it.

  • It is the opinion. And to be honest I was really tired and it first started as a more topic related text and then evolved into this due to my sleep drunkenness. Strange how it sometimes goes. But I am sorry for the off topic posting.

    Jump

  • I don't have anything really against the topics in lots of modern Star Trek, and I like a lot of it. Lower Decks is great, I loved Prodigy and what I have seen of Strange new worlds was quite good too. Even some parts of Picard Season 1 and 2 was good (and it got so much better in S3).

    What I can't watch though is Discovery, this show is just, in my opinion, so bad written on so many levels. A waste of time and money in my eyes. I tried the first three seasons and stopped. I am happy for everyone who likes it, it is just not a show for me and that is fine.

    But all of the new shows are so much worse than the old shows (TNG and newer, I am too young for TOS/TAS), by miles. Maybe it is nostalgia (I started watching TNG as a teenager) but I don't think so. Sure it has it's own cringe at times but for me the quality of the writing and storytelling is on a completely other level.
