From the Source: Nintendo Games & Contests + Dragon Quest XI for NX + Review action

Here are updates from Nintendo... but since multiple things have been repeats... (which include a lot of games) we haven't really posted the highlights because we'd rather move forward (unless new updates come about with an existing game). This had to be brought up... because Nintendo canNOT play around with developers and offerings. There cannot be a repeat on the Nintendo NX... (just... No), can't happen, I really really hope they've learned and are actually listening.

There are talks about some Nintendo games becoming an annual thing. You know how bad that sounds... to me? I think of a loss of quality to get things out to meet a year release date the way EA does with sports games (granted updated rosters)... and the way they tried to release shooters that way until it the quality came crashing down.

I'm glad various teams work on individual Call of Duty games, but it would be great to see what they could do together to deliver. They have their business model for annual releases between COD adventures, but I could just imagine if... that were simply one focus making the most technically advanced COD game to date. It would take the right structure so that there just aren't a bunch of people getting in the way of each other... but it could work.

Anyway... an annual release is a scapegoat to get out of creating new IPs in some cases, and there are enjoy companies doing it. I don't want to see this from Nintendo, but lets see what the NX will bring.


Speaking of the NX... Tyler R. hit us up around the beginning of this month about the Dragon Quest XI: In Search of the Departed Time game... coming to the Nintendo NX, 3DS, and PS4. It excited him... in regards to the NX because the PS4 version will be using the Unreal 4 Engine, so he can't help but wonder what that means for the NX (along with the 3DS version featuring full 3D on the top screen).

What does it mean for the Nintendo NX? It could actually mean various things, because a game can be made to fit a platform if the developer chooses, even making a 2D version... of a 3D game.
