@maximo: Yup, unbeatable, just like Windows 8, Windows phone, the Zune!! Everyone's rocking that Zune. Face it, they can screw up, just like everyone else.
Because, obviously, Ori and the Blind Forest needs all that power. Could never run on that "half assed" PS pro. That idiot will say whatever he's told (payed) to say. Still looking forward to the Scorpio, but this nonsense is ridiculous.
@akassassin11: it's a weird game. I haven't finished it, so I can't speak of the entire game, but I'm enjoying the world and the camaraderie with the team. I also understand some people just don't like it. It's very different from other final fantasy games I've played. The combat isn't turn based, which seems weird for a FF game. The summons are mostly gone. On paper, I didn't think I'd like it. I didn't plan on getting it at all, but I got a great deal during the holiday sales. It's tough to explain because I'm still surprised I'm playing, especially considering how many other games I have backlogged. Best thing I can say is borrow or rent it. Play a couple hours and you should know enough. If it hasn't grabbed you a little bit by then, I doubt it ever will.
@ArabrockermanX: I mostly agree. That's one of the reasons third party developers have been hesitant to work with Nintendo for the last few systems. Nintendo does have some games for launch, but they're more to show off the capabilities of the system (nothing really competitive). Everyone is still going to get Zelda. Let's just imagine some alternate universe where RDR2 launched on the Switch. A game of that profile would probably get special treatment. I'd guess they'd just push Zelda back to a later date. Yeah I think they specifically toil over certain huge releases. It's nothing new, just not everyone does it. Some movies release when they're finished, others are saved for a specific time of year or holiday, to maximize profits.
@EricDWright: So, screw the hundreds of other super talented, hard working artists and programmers because you don't like some silly little girl. Does that about sum it up? If someone was a jerk and said dumb things at a company your parent's work for, would you boycott that company or wish for its demise? Pretty weak, one sided argument dude. She's not a murderer or criminal, just an ignorant girl, big deal, the game is great.
@bat725: And best of all, it's really fun. It seems like a lot of people on this page think the opposite, but I'm having a blast. I stayed up waaaay late last night going through the festival. It's beautifully designed.
@wookietim: That's a good theory. I also personally agree with your first point, but from Nintendo's point of view, Mario and Zelda partially define the brand. It's important for them to attach that game with the sale of each system. They've been able to get away with these console tactics because their potable systems have kept them quite profitable. I'm really curious to see where the switch will be a year after launch. I hope it does well, but my gut says otherwise.
You wrote the last line wrong. It's not the second best selling game of 2016. It was the 10th. It was 2nd in December. Did you read your own sites article? The hyperlink will take you there.
