More excuses.
So there wasnt a "please develop for us" coming from Nintendo. So what?
Bethesda also bears responsibility for not actively inquiring about the forthcoming console.
It's not like it was a secret. Nintendo invited input. They didn't go out begging for it with flowers and boxes of chocolate.
This is political bravado. And it's stupid.
The fact is, the console is out. Bethesda can make games for it.
There is no cosmic rule that they can't do so just because the launch has past.
It's Bethesda making excuses, while trying to bully Nintendo into giving them a greater presence in the future.
The gaming industry as a whole would be much better off without this crap.
Everyone wants to be the big shot, overstepping their bounds.
Bethesda makes great games sometimes (fallout 3, skyrim). But they are usually pretty. Jacked up with freezes, glitches, cache issues, etc. so it would behoove them to try some humble pie. Not to mention forming a real code cleanup/optimization/quality control team for all of their games moving forward.
the industry is in more trouble than people realize. development costs are still sky high and games have to sell upwards of 5 million copies just to "BREAK EVEN". Nintendo sees that and aent going to fall for the trap. Nintendo isnt perfect by a long shot and have work to do with 3rd party developers.... but some of their beliefs and stance on gaming is why they are still around and have all that money in the bank.
with less choices and options they do not need to be creative
gaming would be better if it was not about politics. It needs to be about the games, putting out something that people want.
Now everyone likes to pretend they are art. No they are products! Does not mean those products will not be seen as art, but there is just too much of a focus on making games LOOK good rather than being fun.
amen. EA is the worst at this... they make me sad to be a gamer. saying where the gamers are we will be there also. Crytek had a finished version of Crysis 3 ready for release on Wii U and because of whatever happened between them and Nintendo it was cancelled. there are days im happy to be a nintendo only gamers. this generation like last generation is TOO focused on trying to be photo realstic.... but we are already seeing xb1 and ps4 games struggling to hit 1080p native.... and there were actually people expecting ps4 and xb1 games to support 4k resolution... shake my head.
