in 2 or 3 years vr will either have died or managed to adapt software that is suited to it. I highly doubt traditional videogames will be the type of software that makes vr ubiquitous and vr made for gaming will likely be eclipsed in a few years by smaller and more versatile vr systems that are made by companies with priorities outside of videogames and marketed to consumers who are not core gamers. nintendo's portable strategy based on rumors has no place for vr now. and if vr really catches on down the line they'll put a mario on it when the business is mature enough like they just did at the iphone 7 conference Real hurthling! fucked around with this message at 03:44 on Sep 23, 2016 |

Nintendo just got done getting burned on putting 3D on a handheld and an expensive screen on a controller. I don't think they'll touch VR or anything that would massively impact the production cost of their console/handheld.

Can you play anything with precision in VR? Like the Sega Activator before it, VR is a fad for false gamers to feel like their games have gotten better without challenging them any further. 'Nuff said.

http://www.theverge.com/2016/7/1/12077502/nintendo-vr-miyamoto-kimishima-comments tl;dr they have doubts about whether VR has legs. They're betting their console business on the NX and long ago bowed out of the spec war, so waiting on VR is probably the right thing to do.

My hands get kinda warm sometimes when I play it for hours, with the 3D all the way up.

The New 3DS is like magic, how does it know where my face is!!! The 3D is nice now that it actually works, though.

Instant Sunrise posted:they got burned by having the best selling console of the current generation. They had to massively drop the price soon after launch because the lovely 3D gimmick was not enticing buyers to pay a premium. The lenticular screen also increased the cost of the BOM and they had to release a cut down edition that was 2D only. It's also likely the cause of all the problems sourcing the LCD screens and therefore console roulette. Whether it's the "generation handheld sales leader" or not is irrelevant; the 3DS is far less successful than the DS was.

Nine ten do's always been about AR. Maybe the NX is just them buying a warehouse full of unopened Google Glass.

The 3DS is a neat handheld with a lot of great games but I almost never use the 3D and I wish the screen resolution was higher. It sure made them a lot of money though. The Wii U is an unsuccessful console from a business point of view but has a lot of great games and I kinda don't care that it didn't make much money because I still got to play Pikmin 3 and Xenoblade CX and Super Mario 3D World and on and on. The Scott Pilgrim effect, if you will. These are my opinions on Nintendo's last mixed-success gen.

Since the Wii U thread seems to be deader than the Wii U, I thought I'd mention here that Nintendo seems to have goofed, and preloaded copies of Paper Mario: Color Splash are playable right now. It'll probably be fixed by the time I download it though so I'm not bothering.

I think Miiverse as we know it may be shutting down soon. Like a few months from now soon. I just have...a feeling you know. Nothing concrete to go on. Start collecting the best moments from the past four years so you can treasure them later just in case.
