Dark Souls Creator Planning to Launch "Several New Projects"

@kazeswen: Firstly, to bring up some latter points, before I get to the hybrid console stuff:

"I said why would anyone get a NX if they know its got a shorter life span than other consoles, you say it doesn't matter cause NX2 will have the same life span as PS5. What the hell the does the NX2 have anything to do with the NX?"

This is a good point. It's subjective, and I can't give you the reason for every single person. My argument is: first, release a cheaper console, that's around $250 or significantly less, that way it's more of an impulse buy, and have a steady stream of 1st and 3rd party games released that year. Don't let the system have a slow start like the Wii U did, and don't dare price it above $300. And I just want to mention the topic of 'gimmicks' I do agree it will have one, but nothing expensive like the GamePad, just something simple, like dual splittable controllers, and I don't think the gimmick will be the core reason for its sales; I think strong software lineup, strong marketing and the Nintendo OS ecosystem prospect that combines portable and console will be key to its sales this time.

"I don't know where you get that PS3 was a mistake, it was the single biggest success of Sony's entire electronic entertainment division"

Oh boy, another one of your classic tangents. We're not even discussing Blu-Ray - I agree the PS3 was a Trojan horse that helped Blu-Ray win the format war. It doesn't change the fact it was still stupid expensive to manufacture and lost Sony billions. The PS3 eventually became a great system, it never reached PS2's sales success, though. But there's a laundry list of where Sony went wrong with it early on, and the fact you aren't aware of it and act like I'm the first one to tell you says a lot about your naivete to the industry. Let's not forget how you also said "Nintendo forgot that the N64 was the most powerful system in that generation and was one of the best gens for Nintendo, because of that.", so you clearly aren't that versed in the industry.

"you speak of precedence, yet you keep insisting that Nintendo does exactly the same thing as they did with the Wii U. I quote you "make a cheap console that's almost as powerful as the competition and sell it for cheaper than the competition" That's EXACTLY what they did with Wii U, they made a cheaper console than the PS4 and XB1 that was almost as powerful but not quite, and they lost the console wars."

Okay, now I don't know whether you're just playing dumb. The Wii U, technically is not 'almost as powerful but not quite' as PS4; it has only twice the available RAM of 360 and a more powerful GPU, but it's CPU is actually slower than the 360's and PS3's, so in reality, it's closer to a PS3/360 and far from the PS4. The Wii U in reality was supposed to be Nintendo's platform for getting 360/PS3 ports on once the Wii sales had stagnated, not primarily to compete with PS4 - we didn't even know officially when PS4 and XBO were launching until after february of 2013, where it was announced they would launch later that year. The problem was, Nintendo waited too long to release the Wii U and in reality, it should have come some time in 2010 at the earliest.

"This poll in the system wars section has people wanting a more powerful and more expensive NX over a cheaper and slower NX"

Lol, a poll from System Wars, a forum run by teenage fanboys and Nintendo haters-alike. Remember I've always made it clear I'm not quoting fanboys, but what people in the industry have speculated; I count trusted people who make YouTube content and Twitter posts in that as well. If I was a naive fanboy, of course I'd say I want the NX to be a 4K console - I'd also want it to do my laundry and cook my dinner, lol. This is why you don't poll random people who have no perspective on how the industry works.

Now, on to the hybrid console stuff:

"I said if Nintendo does a traditional console it will not sell unless its 4K. I said that it'll only sell if its a gimmick non traditional console like a hybrid mobile unit, Learn how to read."

You did say that about a hybrid console, I'm aware of that. You've also buried the idea and now say '4K is your most logical step', several posts later, and I'm going to show you.

First you start with:

"If the NX is a traditional console designed to compete directly with XB1 and PS4, it will need to be light years more advanced like 4K resolution to compete since PS4 and XB1 will already have a huge lead this gen."

This is the basis of the current 4K argument we're having, that you have now accepted won't happen.

Secondly, regarding the hybrid console idea, you said:

"Making it a hybrid handheld won't do them any good for third party support, since it won't be powerful enough to handle any of the multi-plats. And third party devs hate Nintendo's wacky zanny console ideas to begin with."

There was no point to this statement, since I was saying the console would be close to the PS4 and XBO and could handle their 3rd party multi-plats.

Furthermore, the topic of a hybrid console is discussed in the form of a Nintendo OS that lets you play the likes of 3DS games on a TV, you said:

"Also, why on earth would you wanna play 3DS games on your TV in 2D???? That makes no since, why would I wanna play low resolution, poor graphics version of a 3DS game on my TV"

I replied with 'the infrastructure wasn't even in the Wii U to allow them to do that and upscale 3DS games'; basically explaining it's an example of what they should of have done with the Wii U but didn't, and what they will do with the NX - if it is based on the same OS and has portable backwards compatibility.

That's 2 examples of you basically refuting your own hybrid idea. In a debate over what's best for the NX, you contradict your own hybrid console idea, where you initially say "it'll only sell if its a gimmick non traditional console like a hybrid mobile" but then go on to say "Making it a hybrid handheld won't do them any good for third party support" and also lament the idea of playing portable games on a TV.

Let's not forget this classic from you:

"I don't sit in my living room on my 4K tv playing low budget handheld games, when I could be playing 100millon dollar AAA games instead."

So you say a hyrbrid will sell, it just won't get 3rd party support? We are discussing the topic of NX getting 3rd party support, so why would you say it's 'logical' for them to release a system which doesn't get any? And you wouldn't want to play portable games on a TV anyway? Point is, despite you thinking a hybrid console would be the 'most logical' idea for them, you've done everything to completely put it down. You've buried your own hybrid idea.

Now, here's the part which ends this debate once and for all:

In the previous post before last, you said a hybrid idea was "always my most logical step for Nintendo", now in the last post you said "As for the logical step, I still believe that my best logical step is 4K"

....

If you're trying to say 'X is what I think they will do' and 'Y is what I think they should do' then just say so. But at this point you've refuted X (the hybrid idea) and now you've come to realise Y is an impossibility (the 4K idea).

You're flip-flopping all over the place and don't believe in either of your ideas. It's officially over for you.
