![]() ![]() ![]() Reggie talked a big game back in the Wii U era of how that console was great for core gamers who wanted to play COD with great graphics, but no one believed him because the Wii U didn't have the chops to back up that statement. It was the cornerstone of that marketing campaign. ![]() People wouldn't have bought into the Switch being this place for eSports and games for western adult gamers if there wasn't some example of that potential on the table from day one. Nintendo's positioning of the Switch via that marketing wouldn't have meant a thing if it wasn't grounded on top of what is Nintendo's most western focused AAA title in generations (BOTW). ![]() I predict in a years time this exact same sort of news will be met with “why would Blizzard do that?!” rather than “Why won’t Nintendo’ listen?” The hope will be gone by that point that Big N cares, and we will find that developers will want to please us to properly cash in on the Switch. Those western developers won’t/can’t ignore the western audience like Nintendo does, which is why Doom has gyro aiming support right now. Once western gamers realize that complaining on the English internet doesn’t influence Nintendo’s decisions they will instead turn their focus on the western third party developers who make the wrong choice on voice chat on Switch (aka don’t copy Fortnite). They are holding out baseless hope for the actual launch of the service that things will change fundamentally to better fit their needs. Many western gamers are still expecting Nintendo to listen to their feedback/backlash like Microsoft or a US based PlayStation division would do. ![]()
