Not on the superior tracker! Hopefully Mediacreate let us know when it happens in a few weeks.
😂 😂 😂
They'll have a hard time breaking overall sales records without Japan though...
None of those systems sold well in Japan and a couple of those didn't sell particularly well in general
Only because they haven't bothered to bring it over, not because it can't run it
Maybe check the numbers yourself. PSP had a huge install base in Japan, Vita didn't. Better than Xbox in Japan =/= huge, lol.
Switch 2 won't be too far behind next gen, they should be able to continue to give similar support as the current switch
Nah, it should release by 2023 or 2024, going by their past successful systems and, by then, they'll have already settled with the PS5 and XB2. Not to mention, the Switch 2 will be just as behind them as the Switch is behind the PS4/XB1 and the Vita was behind the PS3/360. Things aren't gonna change
the sad thing is this will just continue. by the time switch 2 is out, we're deep into next gen and most big devs have already established their engines and work in a way that'll require more power than switch 2 will have.
And that's also before gen 8.
They could possibly plan more for the switch successor this time because of current switch success, making sure their engines are compatible etc for the future
It's gonna be utter destruction once they've done all three of those going into the holidays
LOL. Yup, also explains why MHW isn't on the Switch despite MT Framework being compatible...
If they can get mhw on switch and choose not to then that makes no sense, mhw would sell far better on switch than Xbox, world wide and esp in japan
Yup - Switch revision, Pokemon and Animal Crossing.
i know the numbers dude, but saying it's the 5th most successful handheld worldwide is completely meaningless when it's behind all the successful ones by sony and nintendo (GB, GBA, DS, 3DS, PSP). there's really no way to spin vita's performance into anything noteworthy. they only thing is it didn't bomb in japan as much as it did elsewhere. sony pulling support after a few years is you need to know.
I get that, but the point is that it's not simply technical reasons and I don't even think that's the main issue. Capcom has always had tepid support and questionable faith in the Switch. Their only non-port is literally just Megaman 11, they've still yet to release a console RE on a Nintendo system past RE4 (despite RE5 and RE6 being able to run just fine on the system), and they didn't even have the confidence to release all the DMC games
So I guess when the PS5 is released nobody will make games for it. Makes no sense limiting yourself to PS5 when the Switch has sold more world wide thus giving your game more potential for outreach.
Which goes back to my original comment, they are ignoring the switch's success, I think they are even giving more support to Xbox where their games would sell less than they would on switch
You're focusing a lot on the fact that it's number 7, but not on the fact that there's a massive gulf between 6 and 7. That's like saying WiiU did fine because third place is not too bad.
i'm sure UE5 will fully support switch 2 and be better optimized for it since it'll be made with nintendo's hardware in mind as well. i just don't expect the same level of foresight from most big japanese and western 3rd parties.
The old lazy dev argument, where have I seen this before.
