A launch trailer for the Nintendo Switch version of Mortal Kombat 1 is no longer available to view on YouTube after fan…
you have to wonder why they even bothered with a switch port
Money
anybody who spends money on this port is a fool
I mean some people would rather play their games on the move than be sat down at a console or pc. Its just the hardware is completely outdated, hell even their flagship games struggle with it a bit like BOTW and TOTK do have some frame dropping problems.
Not even talking about the switch portability but I think there must be people out there who only have a Nintendo switch to play game and if they wanted to play mk (and not buy a PS5/Xbox) then there was only one option left… Sad thing is that they didn’t even release it to the PS4/Xone gens console.
the switch has a huge library of great games, so why would someone buy this dumpster fire instead of something good?
I’m going to be fair, the Switch community will eat up anything you throw at them. And I say that as a Switch owner too.
The Doom 2016 port is not good, it’s to this day the only time a videogame straight up gave me nausea when playing. Guess what? The Switch community loves it passionately. The Switch subreddit will non ironically praise releases that are borderline non-functional.
So this game can look terrible, just the fact that it exists is enough.
I love my switch and most of what I got for it. But I try to get stuff I know will run well, and to this day I still can’t understand people who played Bloodstained switch and consider it “fine”.
Even with all patches, it’s still an unstable mess with terrible input lag, second-long freezes and constant loading that sucks all the fun out of it. I don’t care much about compromises in the graphics area, but that shit is practically unplayable.
When I backed that game, it was supposed to run on Wii U, what a joke. I am still convinced the reason they delayed the switch version one week at launch was just so it would not tarnish their glowing reviews.
There’s games I wouldn’t even consider getting for the Switch. Like MK and Doom. They’re such graphical powerhouses and that’s not what the Switch is for. I play those on my PS5.
To be fair, I mostly use my switch for first party Nintendo games and like another user has said the Switch sometimes struggles even with those (I’m looking at you TotK).
