I’m not saying it has to be, I’m saying to expect 4k from a Switch is completely unrealistic and devoid of any understanding of the state of 4k today. We’ll always have to make evolutionary steps to get to where we want to go, I’m not harping on that.

Isn’t this basically what Apple does with their iPhone? Except they remove features to add another lens to the camera?

“We’ve added another lens, that means we can remove the USB-C port!”

Just because Bloomberg regurgitates something doesn’t make it a source. I’m pretty sure they cited the same rumor.

I’m not exactly sure how one would just “up-res” the gameplay. You can’t just do that by plugging in a cable. You would need all new GFX chips as Bloomberg stated “OLED display and faster Nvidia Corp.…

The point being though, as you said, that true, reliable 4k gaming is expensive as hell (on a PC. Obviously a new console can manage it fairly well).

Their joystick modules get covered up a bit on some controllers, and the way they connect to the rest of the controller is different.

I mean at that point it’s no longer a Switch, it’s whatever their next gen console is. The GPU in the Switch isn’t even capable of 4k output.

No he’s full of crap, the original sticks (even the internals) were MFG in Japan by Nintendo, I have no doubts they were outsourced later, but we got internals and units from their factories when the Switch was being developed. All analog sticks drift, they have since the N64 and before with joysticks on PC, this is…

Is this a joke? This has to be a joke! Either that or you don’t understand how 4k works today. Any games that would support 4k basically wouldn’t work on any other Switch. It would require 4xs the memory of 1080p, at the least, which is already difficult to optimize for given the Switches specs. Which is what keeps it…

Because that would come with the expectation that as long as you’re doing well, you can sit on top, which would lead to stagnation, by being able to run accept or deny campaigns you ensure you can keep things fresh, maintain proper contracts, and be able to have direct income allotments.

I don’t understand, Sony isn’t actively pushing their game down. If they want marketing, that costs money. They can market the game their selves and put links to the store in places where people will have easy access to them, which you can totally do.

That’s not true, this is a myth or a fantasy made up by 2 bit law firms. If MGM went after actual infringers, the other offenders would at most bring it up and say MGM didn’t challenge the fan project, and MGM would just say it was fair use, and isn’t relevant to the case. No judge would even stutter on that.

Engines are evolutions, not revolutions, regardless of how we go about the actual implementations. This should be what we’re going for here, not the existential crisis. The character values just represent something just as our words do. Whether it’s a number or not, yes you must tell the computer how bright a light…

Well Bethesda uses various branches of the same engine and don’t re-merge it back down to their other stuff. So if I’ve got a bunch of titles in the works using the same base engine that I’ve stacked a bunch of other crap on top of for the features of that game, I’m fixing the same engine bugs for each title only each…

Well Japan back then had a habit of getting lots of contractors for assets too. They aren’t really into the whole hiring and firing people. Usually if you get hired at a company in Japan it’s nearly impossible to get fired. So if you need temporary work you contract it out. So it may be that as well, the contractor…

They probably didn’t think they were “stealing them” or that it was okay to use them in the project, there is a language barrier that exists here as well.

Or you know, you just go out and take a picture of a wall or something. I don’t know about a sampling texture cds maybe it was for that person’s stuff, but generally you want to make changes to samples or take small parts of it or make brushes, not just straight up use someone else’s work as a layer.

While it doesn’t excuse it, it does explain it. Generally through normal development and interactions we all get out of that ego centrism and learn check ourselves and consider the opinions of those around us. I think we’ve all been in a situation in our pre-adult/early adulthood where we’ve been super defensive and…

I agree, that’s some really nebulous sociopathic (or at least extremely ego centrist) stuff to say right there. It’s something I would expect to hear from a not fully developed teenager/tween. I mean, were you a good person when you didn’t immediately turn around and check all YOUR stuff first, before you riled up…

Whatever you say Nvidia:

This is one of those shallow “All games should be free and fun!” takes isn’t it? It takes money and people to make games. People have to live off this stuff. There aren’t many folks driving around in Lambos in the game’s industry. Even if we look at 5 indie developers in a team, for each of them to even get close to…
