Some people say it’s impossible but idk that’s the case from an Engineering standpoint.

That’s Sony’s domain. Nintendo is ultimately a trading card company, not a tech shop.

The other platforms are focusing on making video games "real."

Nintendo is focused on making them fun.

I think its a good sales differenitator for them at this point. Especially for parents, who are maybe okay with their kid playing Mario but don't want them feeding realistic looking prosittes to alligators or whatever the fuck goes on in video games these days.

This, from the company that played host to WWF No Mercy and Turok? Sounds pretentious imo

SNES first party is the most overrated thing I can think of in gaming after the ganecube. JRPGs carried that Console imo. LTTP and SMW are meh from an innovation standpoint imo. N64 first party gave us a lot of gems imo. JMO, YMMV.

stuff like Contra or Mega Man X or Castlevania 4 put Nintendo to shame in the 16 but days. On N64 there was no one to rival them except Rare.

The more Normal the console the better it does imo. SNES was Normal. Switch is their most Normal Console in a long time.

They need to continue to diversify - making a Normal Console and porting those games to handheld 7 years later is Lucrative. Im doing my MBA Thesis on this topic.

Switch is the best console, and the only current gen console with an enhanced same room multiplayer experience (ie, 9-player smash bros melee, 4-player Luigi mansion). I'm about to play Mario golf with my wife and kid, which isn't on the other consoles. And all the best games not on Switch are better on PC.

I have ps5, series S and Radeon 6900. Nintendo outsmarted all of them.
