@andyvecc011: And PC will probably have 8k monitors trickling in by holiday 2017 when Scorpio is released. 4K was never really anything more than a stop-gap to 8K. Sharp, NHK, Samsung, and LG have already had 8K HDTV prototypes for years. Now with AMD's Vega GPU line rolling out next year, along with Nvidia's Volta, PCs will actually have the power to render games smoothly at that resolution with the 500+ GBs bandwidth we'll be seeing in the new graphic architectures.
Come on people, being angry with Nintendo for botching a product launch is like being angry at a dog for licking his own balls - it's just their nature.
They need to expedite the PC port for this game. It'll come eventually, as every other FF title has made its way to PC, but I'd like to play this soon and don't really want to buy a console in order to play one game.
I'm hoping their price strategy is "free for current Wii U owners", because I really need to save money for AMD's Vega 20 GPU when it gets released next year.
@rodrigue: It would be nice if the docking station had a second GPU, but Nintendo may forego that to keep costs down so it's more palpable to consumers. Rumors are swirling that it's a semi-custom "Parker" chip, or the Tegra X2 if they keep the existing naming convention going. A single Tegra X2 wouldn't have any issues outputting 1080p resolution at 60fps if it receives the wattage boost (and possibly enhanced cooling system) from the docking station. Although it would be pretty cool to have another Tegra X2 in the docking station for the first SoC SLI application.
I'm hoping MS will put some effort into bringing the 360 backwards compatible library to its Play Anywhere service. Scorpio will be a nice addition to the living room, bit it would be awesome to play a few older 360 games on the go with a Surface 3 or Surface 4.
The Wii U is the last Nintendo product I'll ever own. After the awful marketing campaign, lack of 3rd party development, 1st party title droughts, and terrible online gaming features, I've really lost all faith in Nintendo's ability to deliver viable hardware system. For the sake of all the fans who love the Nintendo IPs, I sincerely hope the Switch is a failure and thereby causes Nintendo to dedicate their money, time, and attention to the one thing they're good at - software development.
