FFXIV FOR THE NINTENDO SWITCH

[Kaurie]

Kirby's been fairly active for a Nintendo IP. I think they released a 3DS Kirby game earlier this year. Whatever that Wii U one was too. To be honest, if those titles in general aren't reason enough for you to get a Nintendo system, then it's just not for you. It's wrong to think that a company is out to market to you specifically. They don't know you, so they don't care about what you specifically like or dislike.

It'd be like me saying that Battlefield 1 needs to do a better job at appealing to me, because it just doesn't look like a game I would care about. The devs, producers, and community that does want it could not give less of a damn about my opinion on that matter lol. They'll do their thing without me..

I feel that it would be more like promoting PS4/Xbox One as having great libraries, if all they put out were decade+ old series that have done well (i.e. Call of Duty, Battlefield, Final Fantasy) and offered 0 new and interesting IP's.

I have no issue with Nintendo having Mario/Zelda/Donkey Kong etc., but it's been forever since I've seen them put out a quality game that wasn't one of their tried and tested. It's in large part due to their lacking 3rd party support.

Do they? The amount of support Sony gave its handheld venture is pretty damn lackluster by comparison to the 3DS. If anything, Nintendo has the better quality control for most of their big IPs. You can't really say the same on MS and Sony. Most big hit titles on those consoles aren't even really exclusive. There's a reason why those consoles are aiming to be a budget PC now.

Indeed, Nintendo has definitely a stronghold on the portable market. That said, I personally had a 3DS and a Vita. Both consoles were hugely disappointing, and both consoels gave me a few games that I loved. Vita notably had Persona 4, and 3DS had Tales of the Abyss and Pokémon. In both cases (outside of Pokémon) they're just ports from old playstation consoles.

I purchased a number of other games for both systems and they were all pretty boring. I wasted an unfortunate amount of money on both of them. I guess, luckily?, I wasted less money on them than I did on the Nintendo Wii.
