People don't understand why people are so amazed by how this game looks.
Most Nintendo fans are multi-platform gamers, and have been at least a couple of gens. So they've seen this level of visual fidelity before.
The point is that you have this level of visual fidelity *with* Nintendo's art design and art styles, which ends up making it look notably better than other company's games with similar detailed visuals.
Showing clips from games like TLOU and GoD doesn't make sense because they straight-up looks less visually striking despite having more technical detail.
The individual details of a game aren't the only thing that determines how good a game looks (surprise surprise).

Based on both objective numerical ratings and subjective personal experience, Zelda: Ocarina of Time's Switch 2 remake is the best game ever made. cbr.com/zelda-ocarina-of-tim…
PC players really went from calling themselves the “master race” to trying to brag about playing Nintendo games at 12fps with shader issues
Life comes at you fast 🤣
Ima be honest, I feel like most of the PC gamers on this website are absolute bottom feeder losers who steal games, and the only reason they even have a PC to play is because they bought it with pandemic money lmao

OOT remake is such an incredible tribute to the developers of the original game, as well as an equally amazing accomplishment for the new members of that team. The Zelda team is straight up one of the most significant pieces of art history that any of us will ever witness.

For USA's election day we're asking all developers to provide a political essay and voting disclosure with their pages

In a gaming industry where dev studios are being dissolved and reshuffled according to quarterly shareholder reports, it really is reassuring to see Nintendo devs trying hard to develop new talent instead of cannibalizing it in corporate restructuring

can we stop with the "your days are numbered posts"
it's been like 4 years
For some people, coding was the only valuable skill they had.
If you made your money by selling your ability to write JavaScript, CSS, Python, or whatever else, I understand why you are pissed now.
"Writing code" is worth very little today.
The sad part is that learning to code wasn't easy. It takes years for someone to become a skilled programmer.
Imagine watching all of those years go down the drain.
If you are a programmer (I mean, just someone who knows how to write code in a particular programming language), your days are numbered.
If you still think AI can't do your job, you are just in denial.
But honestly, writing code was never that valuable anyway. If you were a code pusher, you already knew that the best people at your company weren't just writing code.
They came up with new ideas, designed solutions, architected whole systems, knew how to troubleshoot and fix problems, found different ways to build better software, and, in general, spent almost no time writing code.
Not only are those people thriving today, but they're also the ones who will ride the AI wave and learn to bend it to their will.
So don't cling too long to what you lost; embrace what's already here. AI is a tide that lifts all boats, but you have to be open to it.

If someone keeps telling you "you better adapt or else you will get left behind" for 4 year straight, it really comes off more like they're trying to convince themselves rather than trying to warn you.
Especially when the "skill" is just typing a sentence to ask for something.
