[QUOTE="deltamirage"]How is shared multiplats with the daddy consoles a plus?PandaBear86

Make a game for PS3/360, and its easy to port it over to NGP. Third party developer will LOVE this feature. Howisn't it a plus? Just because the NGP will share many games with PS3/360 does not mean the game itself will be any worse.

If YOU were a thrid party developer, what would you do, make a game for PS3 + 360 + NGP, or a game just for 3DS? Three platforms are better than one.

the lack of a second trigger, doesnt that make a pretty big difference in the controls in ported games? And if the wii was any indication, ports to the ngp arent guaranteed to be as good as the original, even if the ngp is "more powerful". Plus, in a store where the ngp library has to compete with the consoles, how many people except those who have lots of cash to drop or only own an ngp will seriously be like "I'd rather spend money on the portable, lesser version, with no splitscreen multiplayer and a smaller screen that is attached to the controller which will probably have longer load times" when the ps3 section is right next door with the exact same game (which might actually be better in terms of content)?

If the ngp games are to succeed, it will be the ones the consoles dont have. Call of duty, killzone, uncharted... they will sell, but they will be nothing but a lesser port or spinoff version of the big brother. THe games the ngp needs are the ones that you cant get on consoles. Something special for the handheld.

Didnt Capcom convert there Resident Evil 5 and Marvel Vs Capcom 3 Engine over to the 3DS as im sure thats what RE: Revelations is running on.Dont know why people keep making on out that the 3DS is just a piece of crud that can only rungames which where made upon the Gameboy like tetris.

PS: Fried Shrimp wins this whole thread. I will buy one on day 1 of release and go about taking pictures of boobies in 3D and then show them off to the women who allowed me to do so.

noooo! dont get my hopes up that mvc3 will be on the 3DS :O

but then again, i'd rather play on a ps3 controller cause that's my preferred control scheme for fighters (or an arcade stic) and i want same screen multiplayer, but since i dont have access to any of my consoles atm, i really want it :(

actually, i guess its not far of a reach. Street fighter 4 is on the 3DS and it does look great. Plus, its the same style as MVC3

nintendo is a sure thing with the handheld market so more games will go to 3ds, the other thinng is the ngp is getting a big big for being a hand held. and sony needs to do less port games and more new games.

Thing is, it's hard to build a game that can be executed on handhelds and only handhelds. You can't use power as the trump card, so it would almost have to be something based on portability. But here's another strategy: make it tempting to have both versions. Think console-to-portable integration. Plus, some people travel a lot and will have little use for a tethered console, so a portable CoD might be fun, especially if you can link up with people for a match virtually anywhere you go (thanks to combined 3G/WiFi networking).

Both handhelds target different audiences, but I rather choose the NGP over the 3DS.

The 3DS does have some hardcore titles, but most of what I've seen are remakes and ports. I know some of them are new, but Street Fighter 4 for example, is a port.

NGP will have ports as well, but I'm a techie and love to mess around with new technology that hits the market. The 3DS so far has its games, but later down the road, shovelware will be coming out for it and too much of it just ruins the library for me.

The 3DS will definitely sell more, but when it comes to game appeal and tech, NGP has me hooked.

Im getting both, so I dont care really. I think its hard to bet against nintendo when it comes to handhelds.
