Multi plat means multi platform. Those games are 3ds exclusive.

I wonder if some of those games remain nintendo exclusive after they start getting made with hd assets that could be brought to other platforms. Having 3ds at such a low res made production cheap and kept a lot of games exclusive id figure

not technically wrong when you can download RAM on the switch

you can even download it on the go, without wi-fi, using any electrical outlet

I think this is inevitable. The lack of gimmick makes it more likely too. It would be kinda dumb business-wise for a third party not to port Switch games to other platforms.

I argued this point with SMD on a few of his videos. Nintendo knew better than to try and re-buy into the current generation by being a latecomer to the hardware fight. Especially when that shrinking market is all but snapped up.

I plan on taking mine to the basketball court, and after some time playing basketball with my friends I will say "basketball friends, let's stop playing real basketball and instead spend time playing local multiplayer video game basketball with simplified controls using my Nintendo Switch."

My basketball friends will then ask if my Nintendo plays Goldeneye, and I will inform them that it does not. I will not be invited to subsequent basketball outings.

Huh, there are rumors that suggest the next Monster Hunter isn't coming to the Switch. Allegedly Sony paid a zillion yen to Capcom for PS4 exclusivity because - unlike in the rest of the world - there hasn't been a killer app for the Japanese market. And Monster Hunter would fit that bill. The rumor also says the contract specifically excludes Nintendo's Switch, so the new Monster Hunter could be ported to the XBone and PC if need be. This fits with interviews about Capcom wanting to capture the western audiences, so they're thinking of adapting the series to our tastes.

If Capcom wants to capture western audiences they should try making good console games or actually finishing Street Fighter V.

I know exactly the difference, but I neglected to add & storage after RAM.

Either way, it's a pathetic amount for even a last gen system.

Nintendo needs to stop insisting on selling consoles at a profit and focus on making a console that is powerful enough to compete and reap the rewards later.
