When the generation ends nintendo switch We will be left with two things: with the great idea of combining the concepts of desktop and portable in a single machine, and that many of its releases were remastered versions, HD or whatever you want to call them, Wii U failures. Let us remember that the previous creature of The Japanese, launched in November 2012, was a real failure that barely sold 13 million units worldwide.
So it was logical (to a certain extent) that after taking such a huge hit with the Wii U, all the games it developed (and supported) nintendo had a new life in switchand I believe that they have done it with a catalog of names that I am sure you all know and that have been arriving since 2017: Mario Kart 8, Super Mario 3D World, Capptain Toad, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, Pikmin 3 Deluxe, New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe, Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition, Bayonetta 2…the list is endless.
Another one that comes from Wii U to Nintendo Switch
Today’s is another of those games that came to Wii U at the end of 2015, hoping to revive a machine that never connected with users and that, obviously, failed. It was a great game and it will continue to be when it comes to switchbut it is curious that when we are already at the end of the generation, from the offices of nintendo have remembered Xenoblade Chronicleswho has now been called an eloquent Definitive Edition.
This version, like the others that have arrived from the old console, will do so with improved graphics to switch and, as a novelty, what they call extra “narrative elements” have been added compared to the original game. In this way, fans of the saga already have one more excuse to add to convince themselves that they want to enjoy it again a little less than nine years later.
At the moment the trailer that we leave you here above is the only official thing about Xenoblde Chronicles available, since at the moment no approximate release dates have been leaked. The same thing the Japanese want to wait for a Direct to make it official but we would be very surprised if it were not put on sale in the month of December, because it is the 5th birthday in Europe, when it first arrived in 2015.
What will Nintendo do when it has no Wii U games left?
We must give credit to nintendo that, with switchhas managed to make profitable launches that failed with Wii U and that, surely, they broke his accounts then. But given the possibility that in 2025 we will have a new console, the next generation, many wonder what the company will do to maintain an important catalog of its own franchises. Will they have to get to work after almost eight years of accumulated laziness in which they have released, above all, remasters?
The truth is that we will see. nintendo It is one of the companies that never fails but with Switch they have passed the game of the remakes and remasters. And they are already tiring.
