This is why Nintendo does not release their consoles with hardware as

Powerful as ps5 and Xbox.

Microsoft and Sony lose $100 on every console sold. But they make that lose up in software sales through out duration of the consoles life span.

Nintendo is a company always in the black. They launch inferior hardware knowing it doesn't matter on paper when they calculate quarterly earnings.

It's a business. I can't fault Nintendo but at the same time I'd love to see a Nintendo console that was actually kore powerful than Sony or MS box and get past all the cartoons looking games/graphics.

But when something works you don't try and fix it

It's pretty saf when the legend of Zelda trailer from spaxeworld in 2000 looks better than the games they are launching today and Nintendo lied and said that was running on the hardware of GameCube.

Nintendo game plan is good for business bad for gamers unless you just enjoy what they are doing.

Because nintendo's only revenue stream is games and their consoles. In some weird scenario the Playstation or Xbox go belly-up they've still got other products to sell to still keep the business running

Also, that Zelda trailer WAS running on the Gamecube. It was able to handle it because it was just a CGI trailer.

BTW, the Dev kits for the Switch-2 are in the wild and there's talks thats its as powerful as the PS4 but with the same handheld capabilities of the Switch so it has the potential to be a beast of a console.

Yes it was cgi but they mislead gamers at that time and said it was real time.

I was super excited for that and then they dropped the cell shaded bomb with wind waker. There was a lot of pizzed off Zelda fans let me tell you.

oh yeah, I remember, thats why the game after Wind Waker was the dark and edgy Twilight Princess with a color scheme muddled in greys and browns
