[QUOTE="PandaBear86"][QUOTE="Bigboi500"]A lot of those multiplats aren't very good though.

Bigboi500

90% of my playing time over the last 2 years have been multiplats. Dragon Age, Fallout, Street Fighter, Call of Duty, BioShock, and countless others. I think multiplat games are awesome. Just because you can play it on more than one system doesn't mean the game itself is any worse.

So what? A lot of the games you listed aren't very good imo. Certainly not better than most FP Nintendo titles. Guess it all comes down to personal opinion.

You can't compare BioShock with Mario. They are too different to say which one is "better", so I agree its all just personal preference.. And at least multiplat games have loads of variety, while most of Nintendo games are family-oriented. Thats why having multplats on your system is important.

PS3 and 360 miss out on Nintendo games. That makes it about even.

Bigboi500

Errr... not even close man. While it is true that Ninty games are a must try, 4-5 titles don't really compare to the mountain of multis the PS360 share.

A lot of those multiplats aren't very good though.

Funny how a console cannot handle Unreal Engine 3, but an iPhone and NGP can :|

Wii is pathetic. Please release a new system soon, Nintendo.

These are obviously unoptomised graphics, so of course they aren't as good as we might hope. NGP graphics will be insane in 2-3 years time. These screens actually look similar to PS3 and 360 launch game graphics. Call of Duty 2 for 360 and Resistance 1 for PS3 are in the same league as those screenshots.

How is shared multiplats with the daddy consoles a plus?deltamirage
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.

This is almost the same as DS vs PSP isn't it? The big difference being that the 3DS is mostly a more powerful DS, and not all that revolutionary.

Still i think the PSP formula sucked, and it seems they'll make the same mistakes again. (Except for UMD! Glad they are gone!)

Did the original PSP share multiplats with the Xbox 360 and PS3? Did it have full PSN support and decent online? Could it handle Unreal Engine 3?

[QUOTE="PandaBear86"]

Alot of people assume that 3DS will be victorious in the handheld war simply because the DS beat the PSP, meaning they expect the same results with NGP and 3DS. Sounds logical, but I personally dont agree with this idea, because PS2 sales were much higher thanthe GameCube and Xbox last gen, yet that didn't stop the PS3 from having poor sales in comparion to Wii nowadays. You can't assume that NGP will lose just like the PSP did.

So... the REAL reason why NGP will succeed is because its a portable HD console and will share many games with Xbox 360 and PS3. Look how many games are based on Unreal Engine 3, truckloads of them. Any future games made on UE3 will be easy to port over to NGP as well. If I was a developer, I would rather use UE3 to make a game for three systems (PS3 + 360 + NGP), rather than make a brand new engine just for one system (3DS). Sure, I understand that this means NGP will recieve many ports from PS3/360, but its still good because you can choose whether you want to buy a game for PS3 (slightly better graphics + Move support) or NGP (portability, touch screen and touchpad). I am actually excited about playing PS3-like games on a handheld. Imagine if Fallout 4 or Mass Effect 3 was playable on NGP. Talk about awesome :D

Your thoughts?

lol the irony is so amazing in this one.

1) PS3 + 360 sales combined are higher than Wii 2) PS3 sales are strong, it only looks weak in COMPARISON to Wii

[QUOTE="PandaBear86"][QUOTE="CDUB316"]

PSP had better specs than the DS as well...but the DS was far superior in every other aspect including the most major of them all....GAMES

don't expect the NGP to be better than the 3DS just because of specs...last gen should have taught you this

caseypayne69

NGP will have loads of games because it supports Unreal Engine 3 and has dual analogs. Imagine how many games will be made for it, especially multiplats

My iPhone supports unreal engine, why can't 3DS?

The 3DS uses a DMP PICA-200 Graphics unit (it was made back in 2006), and it has 96mb total system RAM, so don't expect it to much more powerful than the Wii or play Unreal Engine games. Meanwhile the iPhone has ARM Cortex-A8 CPU and ARM PowerVR SGX 535 graphics chip, along with 512mb eDRAM. Hope that explains your question. You didn't expect Nintendo to release a handheld with up-to-date graphics, did you? :P

[QUOTE="NintendoNite"][QUOTE="PandaBear86"][QUOTE="ocidax"]

I think, is not a good strategy launch the same game for PS3 and NGP, portable games need to be different to consoles games. Thats why nintendo wins with the DS.

NGP has several differences to PS3. The PS3 does not have a touchscreen or rear-touchpad on the controller.

really? whos going to buy the same version of the same game on a portable console just to play the game with touch features? As for the thread, I think the NGP will fail, just look at it. It makes me sick. I'll be sticking with my psp since NGP cant play UMDs.

Who says we will be buying the same game twice? There are several games that are multiplats between PSP and PS3. I bought a few multiplat games for my PSP instead of my PS3 because I wanted to play it outside of home. I would rarely pay twice for the same game, I would choose either one or the other

[QUOTE="PandaBear86"][QUOTE="OreoMilkshake"]So why would I want to buy a portable HD console when I can buy an HD console and hook it up to my 50 inch HDTV?OreoMilkshake
Must be fun taking that 50 inch HDTV with you during a train ride on the way to work? :|

I drive a car.

It was just an example. I drive a car to work too, but I still want to play portable games outside of home. I still go on train rides, play PSP games at my freinds house, etc.
