Why does Nintendo keep getting away with PS2 graphics?

[Apollo Kid]

I'm saying in 2016 there is no console with shytty graphics. hell handhelds are what PS3 quality now? Graphics have been the least of the problem with this console cycle.

People can't appreciate what they have now. They always want something more shinier. This keeping up with the Jones' in terms of graphics will come back and bite the industry.

Both Handhelds aren't there yet, but the Vita is no doubt closer than the 3DS. I agree 100%, video games of 2016 look absolutely stunning. That's one of my smaller complaints about PS4 Pro and Project Scorpio, it seems Sony and Microsoft just wanna increase their games visuals, why not use that extra power to make the games run better, smarter A.I., make these virtual worlds feel more alive and vibrant?

Uhh that's exactly what stronger hardware does

Games run better, and the worlds more vibrant and alive when the details and art is enhanced thanks to better hardware.

Art direction will always carry a game years after it's release.

Yoshi's Island still looks good 20 years later. Even indie games that try the retro look don't look as good as this.

Games run better, and the worlds more vibrant and alive when the details and art is brought to more clarity and stuff.

Disregard everything I just wrote.

What's the problem? No one is making you buy Nintendo products. If you want to ignore some great games just because they're not in ultra high HD and extra fancy then that's your decision.

Dont like it when people support a backwards company like Nintendo. We wouldn't have nice graphics if Nintendo was the only one making consoles.

Did they release bf1 for the wii? Nope, they don't work with publishers

why not release games on great hardware? whats holding them back? n64 >> all the crap they have now. don't know how they fell off so hard

But they're not the only ones making consoles. You're complaining about nothing. Just don't support the company. It's just that simple.

Another thing about Nintendo is their soundtracks. I've been listening to the Super Mario 3D World soundtrack for a second. Those funk- jazzy buttery beats Been listening to this heavy.

* After the N64

The "Dreamcast" was the most advanced console in its generation.

Fixed it for you

I wonder how many gens until we get a Nintendo game with their CG graphics?

for some reason that reminds me of the captain falcon cartoon I saw



"I will not DIE!, MY DREAM WILL NOT DIE!"

"FALCOOOOOON PAWWWWWNCH!!!!!!!"

*universe gets a massive hole*

Why cant he be that bad ass in Smash bros?

and Animal Crossing/"Dobutsu no Mori" (N64 version is the one I posted, virtually identical to the Gcube version)

Also love how people hype Nintendo for making Mario every year.

If you build the same tree house every year each time you did, it would be slightly better. Don't see what's so magical about tweaking the same games year after year.

I hate that cliche "gameplay over graphics" line. Ive never played a dope looking game that i didnt enjoy.

cuz its true. games like undertale and ff7 (both of these games are ugly as shyt) are games that people keep going back 2. not for graphics but for the story and gameplay.

Those games looked amazing for their time. people like acting as if games always had current gen graphics back then. Zelda OOT, Halo, Mario 64, Sonic 3 etc all had the best gfx at their time of release.

other than NSMB, the marios change it up. Galaxy isn't like Sunshine, Sunshine isn't like 64, Original isn't like 2(USA) or 3, etc.

undertale looks like shyt for a game that came out a year ago i can't say for ff7 cuz i wasn't even born then.
