#69848 Nintendo speaks out saying enjoy the games, don't focus on specs.

Posted by Goose74 on 06 April 2012 - 04:06 AM in Wii U Hardware

Hi there.

Rumors are rumors. Nothing more and nothing less.
Take it as a grain of salt. We will see what´s up Nintendos sleeves this time.

The phrase "gameplay over visuals" should be take carefully. It is right but

1. Good visuals will mostly intensify the gameplay
2. Strong hardware specs always means more chances of getting exclusives or good ports.

So Nintendo have to do everything to compete with both MS and Sony. I don´t think that both will let Nintendo get a second time the same chance like this gen.
This time Nintendo have to focus on competing with both Next-Gen Systems or they will big problems with every following year the Next-Gen is at work.

Sorry but most Studios make it for themselve very easy when it gets to port on a lower Hardware.
Sure you can´t port the Graphics fidelity at all but the core of the Game can be the same. Always there is a problem here and there or "we will only do ports if we can bring the game 100% the the platform" (simple excuse of we have no interest in doing more optimising the code or doing the work)

This time Nintendo´s hardware needs to be future proof to be competitive but they would be fools to release final specs to early so the competitors can jump train or render them bad in forums and in the press.

To the bad press and dubious insiders i just have one thing to say. A friend of mine is in the games business and it is totally normal that pro and con hypes will be ignited through payed posters and insiders in the industry. So next time you read about some dubious insider just start the BS bingo. ;)

Best regards.
