so true

Hurr durr herp derp

>>718716068 (OP)
shouldve used BoTW instead which is a 3 generation game.

Is the switch 2 worth it? I've been thinking about getting one. Not really a fan of the newer zeldas, though.

>>718716068 (OP)
LttP was fantastic and OoT was dogshit for N64babies and it also looked terrible compared to PC and PS1 games, so that's not really a point in your favor.

yeah I'm gonna say gen alpha won

>>718716068 (OP)
while i agree with the sentiment I don't think this image is an accurate example of it.

>>718716068 (OP)
Now add an image of BOTW on WiiU.

Nintendo has fallen...

Worth what? $500? No. Worth your time? There is only bananza and mario kart.

This. OoT was popular because apparently shitton of people had no access to PCs so when their mommy and daddy bought an N64 that was literally their first encounter with "modern" video games. Definitely the most overrated game in existence.

At the end of the day what can you really expect from a company that has been riding on the coattails of a simp plumber for 40 years? Don't need innovation when tendoids will happily slop up whatever dogshit falls into the trough.

It's true though. I haven't seen one Xbox SeX, Piss 5, or Shit 2 game that isn't a noticeable jump from the previous hardware. Tech has stagnated.

>>718717570
No I mean really, your post doesn't make sense.

It's like you chopped up 3 unrelated points and superglued them together.

Its fascinating that there are adults who only ever played roblox or fortnite during their childhood years.

N64 looked great for the brief time before 3D accelerators on PC caught on. It was fine at pushing polygons but absolutely crippled at texturing.

What PC was as good as OOT ?
Oh yeah that's right, none

>>718717816
n64 could do perspective-correct texturing, it just had a tiny texture memory
psx could only screen-space texture, but that was mitigated by being able to push more textures and subdividing geometry

It's what happens when you have a generation of retarded parents raising their kids
>No anon I won't buy you a $60 game that is too expensive
>You wanna buy something for $20 for your "free" game? Well alright
>Buys them $20 gift cards on a weekly basis
And they don't stop to think about how this is costing them at least $1000 a year on what is basically a single video game as opposed to actually buying them video games. I think I had 14 N64 games at most and loved the shit out of that system, and that whole library would still be cheaper than a year's worth of Robux.

wait for AI games to come out. it'll be bigger than 3D. you won't even need to play the game.

>>718717816
>N64 looked great for the brief time before 3D accelerators on PC caught on.

So basically for how long, a few months, a year at max? I remember everyone wanting to get 3d accelerators as soon as games started adding support, we were playing Shadows of the Empire on a P133 machine in 1997 which was THE killer app for the N64 at the time (nobody I know gave a shit about Mario, out of the maybe 2 guys I knew to have a N64, they played Goldeneye and Wave Racer).

ok so to break it down, you're saying people who like OOT only like it because they didn't experience PC games, which you consider to be better. We'll just ignore the finance and kid comments because that's just juvenile in itself and irrelevant.

But there wasn't any game like OOT on the PC at the time to compare it to. I mean yeah the PC did have some stellar games, no denying that, but what game would you consider to be the "OOT killer", similar enough to be compared to it, but the better game To my knowledge there wasn't one at the time.

>>718718372
It's a guy roleplaying. At the time PC games weren't that advanced and DOOM clones were still the peak of PC gaming. I remember getting the PC version of the game of life through a cereal box, and that looked pretty advanced.

Ocarina of Time is the greatest game of all time and I think it's just insulting to make a comparison to it and Tiktok which isn't even Zelda to begin with

Using TOTK is a retarded example when Mario Kart World doesn't look much better than 8 (sometimes worse)

>>718716692
>PSX looked like shit compared to N64
Nah. PS1 textures are crisp and stylish. N64 looks like diarrhea mud.

>>718718726
>I remember getting the PC version of the game of life through a cereal box
Eugh, this looks terrible. I'd have cried if I had asked my parents for Zelda or Mario and got that shit instead.

Eric’s here! Come on, quick! Eric’s posting!

>>718718763
BotW and TotK are the only real 3D Zelda games. OoT and its clones are not Zelda games. You growing up with OoT does not make it a Zelda game. You being a retard who thinks the Zelda "formula" is solely dependent on themed dungeons where you get an item in them to beat that dungeon's puzzles and boss does not make it a real Zelda game.

>>718719057
Now show that in full screen and in motion, all jaggy and warping.

>>718719279

>>718719074
I found it fun, but only passively like any PC game at the time. Edutainment games like Clufinders and SIM games like Rollercoaster Tycoon were unironically the best the PC had to offer. That guy has to be a zoomer or a poorfag who was too poor to afford a console lmao. Everyone who had a console had a fucking PC.

>>718716068 (OP)
unfair and retarded comparisson. OP is a faggot as usual

>>718719279
Still looks good to me.

>>718719608
>Everyone who had a console had a fucking PC.
Doubt it, a PC cost several times more. The 3D card alone cost as much as a console, then add all the other parts. And remember that we're talking about *children* who would have to convince their parents to spend well over a grand on a computer (which many still saw as a mere toy) instead of just $200 on a console.

>>718719057
What games are these?

>>718716692
No they didn't. Mario 64 set unrealistic expectations for what the rest of the games are like. Graphics on 64 were shit.

>>718716068 (OP)
2x the pixels vs 2x the pixels
I fail to see the problem here

No shit retard. Diminishing returns, the more realistic it gets the less it can be improved.

Still your image is exaggerated because the switch 2 games are generally running at 4x the resoluton (or 2x res 2x framerate) which is still a big improvement on a big TV screen.

>>718721043
Let me test my Google-fu:
1 > Oddworld // Fear Effect // Tenchu // Koudelka // Hellnight
2 > Alundra // Vagrant Story // Echo Night 2 // Metal Gear Solid // Galerians
3 > Shadow Tower // Silent Hill // Blood Omen // Parasite Eve // Shadow Man
4 > Dino Crisis // Nightmare Creatures 2 // Heart of Darkness // Castlevania SOTN // Enigma
5 > Tomb Raider Chronicles // Vampire Hunter D // In Cold Blood // Brightis // Alone in the Dark: The New Nightmare

>>718720832
A PC was essential. What? Were you still typing on a typewriter? In the fucking 90s? Lmao, no. If you didn't have a PC you were seen a poorfag and would not have luxuries like a console because you couldn't afford the bare minimum.

Your retarded handheld can't even play games designed for it well.
>b-but it sells!
Because you and your ilk are consummate shit-eaters. We'll be having this same conversation in another 6 years when you buy the next Nintendo console that costs another hundred dollars more and is even shittier compared to everything else.

the switch 2 version looks better than the switch version

ocarina of time looks WORSE than a link to the past

>>718723226
Zoomers could have these kinds of quality leaps too if they actually held companies responsible. Corporations back in the day didn't bust their ass for fun, they did it because they had to.

???
PS4 was about 8x stronger than Wii U
Switch was 4x weaker than PS4, massively weaker than PS5
Switch 2 is 3x weaker than PS5, but also features DLSS so if the developer actually bothers to use that (many aren't) it can be even closer.

>>718719057
>PS1 textures are crisp
Which is exactly why it was shit.
Nothing was left to the imagination.
A primitive rendition is imposed that accentuates the low polycount of the models. By accident or genius nintendo used blurs on top of blurs.

I wonder who made this thread...

>>718723748
This. Modern consoles wouldn't be selling out day one like they do now because of the new toy syndrome, they would be doing it for the new games. I'm still baffled at how much the sold PS5 when it's just a repackaged PS4.

>>718722828
Thanks anon.

>>718716068 (OP)
Why does the Switch 2 version have worse lighting?

>>718722903
My view may be a little biased because I'm a thirdie with technologically ignorant parents. I begged them for a computer since I was real little, but only got one after finishing high school.

>>718716841
Mario and zelda are not even that bad when compared to pokemon.

You could've also posted GTAV or Skyrim. But those are multiplatform and thus wouldn't fit your agenda.

LttP was better looking than OoT. You complain about how modern games look worse but endlessly suck off these muddy, blocky early 3d games

>>718716267
It has two games, one of which is an OK kiddy monkey game and the other is a worse MK8. I’d wait. No console is worth it at launch.

>>718726248
I always figured the best case scenario for buying a switch 2 is if you only really game on a switch 1 and you were desperate enough to play shit like Hogwarts and other third party games on the fucking thing. Go ahead and make your life less painful and just get a switch 2 at that point, not like the price will ever go down kek.
