The TechnoBuffalo Show Episode #060 –Games of the Fall, Questions and more!

2015-08-19
and welcome to episode 60 the Technic Buffalo show I'm live your to host ER today Sean ani editor-in-chief of the site i'm joined by executive editor of gaming joey davidson hello how are you welcome back to the show sir ah she's not my guns here you're a rootin tootin cowboy yes yep is that the game you and Connor play no I oddly enough it's not it's just something I'm doing I don't know okay sounds good so as we mentioned last week everyone Todd is on vacation this week it's true technobuffalo employees do occasionally take vacations it's rare yeah you got a big one coming up next month I do I'm going to Disney World man i'm taking my uh my four-year-old you're just excited that your son is finally of an age where you can use him as a cover story for item if you're on yeah thanks thanks Connor for growing up I appreciate it well let's see i spent my part of the last two years I've spent my birthday at disneyland by myself oh I'm just like I don't care yeah I I even uh go and get the button how are you serious yeah that's funny yeah so the cast members have to say happy birthday to me as I walk around well that's nice of them yes it is it's part of their job but so on this week's episode we are going to be discussing the games that we're most looking forward to coming up this fall as we are quickly approaching the fall season and Joe am I'm just gonna let you take off but what are some of the games that you're most anticipating well you know it's it's really weird because I wouldn't necessarily say that these are the games that I'm most anticipating so much as the games that I think we should all kind of be watching out for um this year is kind of a mixed bag like there's some really big heavy hitters here but then at the same time there's some some games that are kind of middling but have the potential to take off and Sean I apologized already because i'm going to do way more than five ok ok I think for me personally the biggest game it's it's split really and maybe some some viewers won't expect the second one but there are two games that I'm looking forward to the most one of them is fallout 4 like that'sthat's my gimme the other one is persona 5 and I'm sure some people watching no persona like persona and a prob excited 42 but I don't think that in most people's minds persona ranks up there with fallout you gotta understand that persona 4 I played it for 120 hours on the PlayStation 2 and then I played it for a hundred more hours on the PS Vita for persona 4 golden I love that game so I'm really excited for persona 5 they haven't given us an exact release date yet but but we do know it's 2015 and atlas has confirmed that several times but fallout 4 I mean would you say it's one of the biggest games of the year sean o easily easily i just even the reaction from the audience at e3 when it was announced well they did it i was i was reading an interview somewhere todd howard is the game director at Bethesda working on fallout he's he's kind of like he was the guy on stage during the presentation that presented Fallout and Bethesda Mike presser and he said that if he had it his way you like they denounced the game eight days before release and I love that idea I love it like it's just like here's game okay it's coming out like that's so amazing could you I mean I feel like everyone who watched that press conference probably would have walked out the door and bought the game the next week if it's a really cyclist at height yeah definitely I mean how many people downloaded fallout shelter there's a story that I just approved from Eric um what is it that since its release in june on iOS and it was just brought over to android last week last week last week fallout shelter has logged fall shelter players have logged over 3,000 hours or three thousand years yeah here's years sorry millennia yeah that's crazy so I mean that's the whole reason I haven't downloaded it it's good but I think well you play simpsons tapped out for a while right uh for about two years yeah yeah i feel like you you probably get into fight it's a different game but it still has that like micromanagement creation type of thing I know that you like that yeah so fallout persona 5 those are two games for 75 is one that I added this morning I just because it dawned on me like holy crap this is really happening this year um metal gear is like two weeks away like I don't know if you guys realized this but we are less than two weeks from metal gear solid 5 the phantom pain another huge game for this year and probably the last of the games for that series I don't know I know it's the last of code gr kojima's as well but I know that Konami said that they're already prepping for the next metal gear so I don't know what it's gonna be it's probably just gonna be a pachinko machine like a full a full dev team to just do a pachinko machine and it's just going to be one cutscene that no one gets to finish because it's too long for the average pachinko play session that's what I think anyway um let's see uh super mario maker is huge i actually have that in my possession now battlefront star wars battlefront is going to be huge Just Cause 3 and then the last one that I have on my list is halo 5 Guardians Sean do any of those stick out to you aside from fallout as being banner titles well I think battlefront I mean just because we're we're in this the middle of this Star Wars frenzy again due to all these movies coming out and also people have been wanting another battlefront for so long yeah i think the i think the biggest problem for halo 5 guardians is it's got to get the stink of the master chief collection off of it I don't think I genuinely genuinely I don't think it will I really don't and I'm time terrified i wrote about this in the screenshot saturday post this past weekend i am genuinely terrified that 343 is going to watch the multiplayer launch for halo 5 Guardians ya know the master chief collection still doesn't work properly like still yeah how long has it been out now I mean we're approaching a year it'll be a year yeah and that's insanity so why should we take any yeah what why should we have any faith that 343 is going to be able to launch halo 5 Guardians in a smooth manner I don't know I genuinely I don't I mean I'm not I'm not convinced that they'll be able to quite frankly but I mean it's kind of sucks I know that the die-hard Halo fans will be lining up to get it and the one thing that I will say about uh Master Chief collection is compared to guardians the master chief collection was like hundred something maps spread over multiple games spread over multiple file sizes just everything not all the maps for remastered some of them were just straight ports like there was a lot for 343 to juggle and I'm I'm no developer I'm no software server engineer but I I recognize that there was probably a lot of they had to make these things lock up you know mm-hmm and making all that come together in a matchmaking style uh probably pretty hard yeah no I do agree with you there i just i think that there look your average parent you know for this christmas oh I'm going to get Johnny halo five yeah it's not going to impact that at all but I think you know people like you myself those of us that follow gaming there's a lot of work they gotta do to win us back we're all taking the wait-and-see attitude I mean almost universally I don't know anyone who's like I'm getting it day one and I don't blame that person I don't I know first of all I think that that if anything has been demonstrated best buy this generation people like to point towards generations as the age that brought us whatever 64 and Playstation one that was like 3d gaming right I made the wii and xbox 360 playstation 3 to a certain extent they all brought us motion control that was huge and live online marketplaces and online gaming defined by that generation so far the only of this generation of software has defined for me is that it's unreliable as crap like day one purchases are a mistake today they are a mistake well like I told you yesterday I'm having a really hard time not pre-ordering battlefront i I'm fighting everything in my body not preorder battle for it dude you know what what was it with Batman and you didn't play it on the pc but like I remember you telling me like you're pissed off at me for telling you dr. pre-order Batman yeah but it dude it was worth it you probably still haven't even bought it but it oh because there have been so many DLC packs at this point I'm just like there's no am buying it before the game of the year edition that's smart that's smart and I recognize that it's kind of tough for basically diehard fans to kind of back off of that a little bit but I mean it in any other genre if you told moviegoers that the movie there was like I'm better than fifty percent chance that part of the movie just straight-up wouldn't work when you go to see it in theaters I have a really one and three or five but real too right right yeah Apple to do this movie it's just gonna stop working get a connecting to server spinning gun we didn't have time to finish the effects so it's just these people standing in a green room so use your imagination okay right exactly like why is that okay in gaming but in every other every other medium out there people would lose their flippin minds I'll imagine a band releasing an album missing two songs oh well we'll deliver those later yeah right now that's not happening that's not happening track seven and twelve they're coming later know that they're all now album but it's just static like that's that's what it is hey so I I don't know any way to this fall it's gonna be a weird season for me because i think that there's a lot of games this fall that are really exciting i think that super mario maker I gotta tell you this is a really good game and I think it's kind of a dark horse thing yeah I see when I first heard the idea I was like oh you know I don't know the closer we get to that game the more I'm like that sounds really interesting have about six to seven hours in it already and I'm not really allowed to like express my opinion on it um but i will say that i was skeptical too mm-hmm i played in a preview events still skeptical it was the Nintendo World Championships of e3 that kind of solidified it for me as something that's going to be here to stay I know that Nintendo has a problem with install based on the Wii U but just looking at Mario maker and looking at stuff like twitch and the way let's plays are on YouTube and the way that the Internet is now in general this game could blow up it could oh yeah I definitely think so i can see there being leveled building competitions not just played competitions but building competitions mm-hmm you know and just for clarification folks the reason he's not allowed to express his opinion is that is actually a rule from Nintendo during this time period yeah yeah the yeah it's not that he's just keeping it from you he's actually not allowed to just ya simsim with gears of world that they're like they're like you could talk about it but do not give any inclination Microsoft has this wording do not give any inclination of how favorably or unfavorably you might score it I'm just like okay yes but both of those titles are in your hands um so yeah I mean now see here's the thing I've while I consider myself a gamer I've been gaming since the days of the colecovision there are certain games I've just I've never played a fallout it just didn't look that appealing to me I've never played any of the personas yeah yeah so but you know especially persona I mean the way you and Ron just got out these games you know what though here's the thing and especially Ron like i said ron was in delaware we're both from like the same state he's just in japan now and that's where he works he came in to visit cuz he got married and we went out to dinner and it just re solidified what I know about Ron a nice gaming tastes weird to super different people like Ron is hardcore into like classic Japanese dungeon crawlers and stuff like that I can't give those games the time of day I just don't have the patience for it and I totally recognize that I'm notice I'm not recommending persona to you Sean yeah no I don't do not think it would be your cup of tea but for fans of it for people like me who like those types of games yeah it's going to be exceptional I do think that that the triple-a Western space has homogenized games a little bit much everything kind of has has come down into this straight shoot right like everything is kind of the same look at all the open world games now how many open world games have you played in this generation that have just been some variants of concrete our clear a section of a map two objectives concrete our clear section of map do objectives like that's that's like all we do now yeah really tired of that now I agree and speaking of priority I I have pre-ordered the taken king but I feel safe and that as I've put you know almost 20 days now and just the fridge yesterday if you know that you're going to get the life the life out of that and I think that one thing that you have going is is you play with call it a lot so I am like you have that guaranteed partner in crime and I think that that that sort of like reinforces your ability to pre-order there was a time friend in the NHL series when like EA sports hockey league was a big deal like I knew every single year that I was going to play NHL because I was on an EA sports hockey league club like this is what I was going to do so I had no baby my nerdiest thing I've ever heard you say huh hey man it was at least a sports game okay so and all the pokemon I've collected all these years that's not the nerdiest thing okay whatever dude but yes you're right i know i have a partner in crime you know to run through destiny with exactly now and i got matchmaking sites when he's not around you know all that sort of stuff I know I'm going to get my money's worth out of that battlefront I mean I'm just I'm such a star wars fanatic as everybody knows but I also know from a past history of Star Wars titles that I may after an hour through the disc against the wall go I hate you I hate you I hate you uh I mean maybe you should pick up a copy used of battlefield two battlefield 3 I guess that's working now that's going to give you a good impression of how the game plays I mean I know that dice is like no it's not battlefield it's not battlefield but dude like at the press conference at e3 it felt like I played it for like 20 minutes it felt like battlefield in space I'm talked about that don't get me wrong this is exciting as long as it flip it works but I don't know I'm not take it already will have a certain feel I don't know if you're gonna like it or not man because I know that you're you're pretty hit-and-miss on the shootie shoot games I'm very hit and miss on the shootie shoot games very I I haven't picked up a call duty in years now but you love destiny by love destiny and you had that stem where you played the crap out of titanfall 2 yeah yeah I did I did have a stint on Titan fall but yeah see you're pushing me again towards not for your dream haha who is also the probability that it will be broken as heck when you get it so I'm going what you see Sean just talk to it yeah exactly I have made a horrible decision so yeah I mean it's hard to narrow down I mean I won't I'm it for me I love the last tomb raider game loves the last year oh yeah that's coming out this year too yeah so I'm all excited for that's equal yeah uh I gotta tell you I I don't mean to like fan the flames here but I've had a really good stretch of buying multi-platinum playstation 4 and getting the most working product that way I might just wait I might wait I mean eric is kind of our resident tomb raider guy so you know that's he's going to do the review certainly i think i might just wait for the playstation 4 version which will likely come with all the DLCs and everything else so that's ha and I hate talking to because on one hand it's great because you end up saving me money oh yeah on the other hand you end up delaying my enjoyment I'm sorry I'm sorry but I'm not sorry I guess now I mean you have a point like I said with the taken King I feel safe you know i i've put i just looked it up like the air dam i met almost 20 days of play time at this point you know which at one point makes me cry that i've spent that much time on anything better than doing drugs oh yeah it's good have 20 days doing drugs or 20 days and investigates once more costly than the other let's just put it that way oh that's true that's okay fine but I've definitely got my money's worth out that but yeah I mean the thing is like Arkin whatever the last hour come one was called I keep forgetting it Arkham Knight I had pre-ordered at one point you ended up talking me into canceling that and so I bet I every time I feel like I've learned my lesson about pre-orders I start going oh but this one Oh take of all the days of excitement and enjoyment you're gonna miss what no not really what are you getting from pre-ordering what do you even get it well getting in yo in early too you know when the most people are going to be playing but you can just buy it from the store yeah I know but then there's a weapons pack no no that's not worth your time it's gonna order your time it and an extra map Richie time man the harley quinn dlc is is proof enough yeah i know i couldn't believe when you guys wrote that up oh what a day what is it like 20 minutes not even and it's it's a bad it's a bad 20 minutes it's not like it's like 20 minutes like oh it's over it's more like huh thank God that must have been three hours it was 20 minutes totally totally off topic but mentioning Harley Quinn made me think of this did you see the pictures yesterday from the Suicide Squad set no are they on the site no because they weren't of the movie being filmed the cast has bonded ah the cast has decided that perhaps they should get matching tattoos geez okay and that perhaps Margot Robbie who's playing Harley Quinn should be the one to give it to them a lot that's crazy she there are pictures online of her in her Harley Queen costume and makeup tattooing the director that's awesome I look that up so I asked John yo as you know the company is bonded over all these years and before I could even finish my says I just got no no clue taught it in Harley Quinn makeup and costume and have them tattoo John and I don't see what could go wrong what what's the downside little bitch up dawg this month right I got a picture of him tattooing like John's arm and John's just wincing up dirty bread oh that was a mental image I did not need Wow okay uh i will mention to todd when he gets back he needs to grow start growing out his hair so we can give him pigtails yep well we've got a lot of questions coming in so let's jump into a couple of these I although my particular favorite came in very early in the show from prison Franco oh my god oh my god can't stop screaming like a fangirl uh at least somebody's happy to see you Joey a maybes talking about me maybe he's talking about you I don't know interesting question for him such a mahal have you guys ever purchased a limited edition console or even a collector's edition of game if so which was it I'm tempted a lot of times by these limited-edition consoles but then I'm like I already own a console why am i buying another copy of the council just because it has a fancy paint job Oh what have I done to myself son over here because it's not unpacked I have this all right so I got the Destiny yet but you did not purchase that did not purchase it but I have it I guess yes that was really the only limited console I've ever purchased it was the I don't have it either because I lost it in a move it forever ago do you remember so the gameboy advanced they had the SP line which I still think aside from the the new 3ds XL is the best system ever released just in design and build quality and all that stuff that was the SP it was small it was like a square and this one was an NES anniversary themed one so it looked I remember that looked like an nes i bought it it was like a hundred bucks at gamespot or Y at gamestop and it was one of the best purchases I've ever made actually I actually somewhere in my desk i had my gameboy advance SP i bought it the battery life was killer the backlight was killer i bought it and final fantasy tactics on the same day and I crush that game that was like a lie over those a lot of fun um special editions for games I've stopped I don't really buy them anymore i think the last one that i bought only because wind wakers like one of my favorite games ever i got the wind waker HD special edition late though month again and Dorf statue never opened it I'm one of those people like when I do but I don't open it i just kind of like leave it i don't know i don't know like 40 years when connor comes up to me and he's like dad why do you have all this crap you never opened it i'm really not gonna know how to respond like I'm not gonna know what to say to him he's gonna be like why did you waste your time and money and I'm just gonna be like I don't I don't know well if it makes you feel any better last night I was going through my DVDs i'm slowly selling off my dvds and all that and do you remember those Oh Disney limited edition tins that were like the complete black and white Mickey Mouse and all I've got all not all of a good chunk of them yeah still unopened like I have some in the same way dude I have like the I have an original like one of the first runs of the super special edition of Casablanca when it was released on DVD I have that I've got King Kong when it was released on DVD I have like I have like obscure flipping French movies like I have this movie called voodoo say from drowning and it's like no one's heard of this stupid movie but here I am what about the collectors edition everything else I do not do this anymore i used to this was like something i used to do a lot so no now not that's interesting and somewhat off-topic I now I think about I don't buy collector's editions of games by dou by collectors editions of movies movies are just a different it's a different how can I say this without like shaming video games movies are more acceptable right i mean it's just it's it's it's cheaper the collector's editions of films are way cheaper than the collector's editions of video games so ya better that way and it's just it's they store a little bit easier like odds are you're not getting a giant statue like I'm not my the collectors edition something just for the giant statue so I don't know ya know be I you know they come out with you know this box that has you know this alternate cut of the movie like when they did the blade runner said a couple years yeah yeah they had like all 18 versions of the film a came with the manager spinner replica oh sweet yeah I wanted to come with a folded-up aluminum unicorn it came with that too did it really yes they came in a replica of the void comp suitcase that's awesome well I was really funny was i bought it for i had gone HD DVD instead of blue right but which is which is a bold choice I well you know I did my research I thought was going to win but the nice thing was they said after you know HD DVD was declared dead that said just come out all I had to do was take out the insert cover mail it in and they sent me the blu-ray version oh that was cool yeah that was very cool that was Warner Brothers I all my Warner Brothers HD DVDs all I had to do was send him the cover and they sent me a blu-ray version that's really nice I didn't know that they did that that was one of the nicest things I've ever seen a studio do in one of these format Wars yeah okay moving along as you and I tend to go off on tangents yeah Todd this Todd go off on tangents no he doesn't see that's what you're missing yes and speaking of Todd from such a ball finally got rid of Todd for one week eh hey he went on vacation so we didn't force him out we should uh from brazen Franco if you think day one purchases are a mistake what about early access on the Xbox um well do you research it's the biggest thing that I can say the interesting thing about day one access is if the defensive type of player you are if you're the type of player who just likes to play games like in your little bubble and maybe you like to share clips with them like on Twitter or Facebook or whatever and talk about them a little bit online and that's like the extent of your gaming i would say avoid early access but if you're someone who wants to actively take part in like the thought jump on the sites forum and talk with the creator's online and like work with the community on feature requests and stuff like that i'd say early access is a good idea i think it's going to be a bit more polished on the xbox one that knows on steam and a bit better policed I would assume I want people away from early access on Steam all the time it's just you're buying into games that are literally not done and unless you're someone you both recognizes that and is completely ready to offer up what is that like a ramekin coffee mug you got there what is that Jake oh my god thanks Joey yeah hey don't get that what's hot either anyway wah wah shun recovers Wow oh my god so uh assume that the Xbox team is gonna police early access stuff a little bit better so you're not going to be buying into quite as many unfinished products um but like i said if you're someone who doesn't really want to put up with that crap ignore it if you're someone who wants to join the community of players that are giving feedback to the developers dymond early access it can be cool are you I heard Mac hahaha I'm back amazingly um hey on the youtube link to the site someone asked who we are like in all caps who are we well I'm the deceased Shaw naughty who just died on copy okay you are Chad the murderer i'm sean it's one honey's murderer if I turn up dead tomorrow folks you know why you were with those ah man whoo from such and ball hey Sean which disney infinity characters yet for the 2 point 0 version of the game and are you excited for three-point oh uh I'm excited for three-point oh but am I going to have to buy a new version of this game every single year and every year I have to get a new disc how many of these discs am I expected to uh what's your limit man I know I know as for which characters I am for two point O way more than I should however I only bought like three of them the rest were sent to me as review units ah yeah so otherwise I would have had to been very very picky on what I bought as for a three-point oh yes I'm excited I I'm really excited they're adding new game actually I can't discuss what thing that email we got this morning something's going to be an answer yeah I forgot that they said that was for later no there's some exciting new things coming to three-point oh the addition the addition of Star Wars and this has been revealed you know that you're going to be able to drive an 80 st you know yes it's going to be in the Infinity style but it still looks cool uh so yeah I'm excited for it but I just the one thing that bothers me about 50 I don't know how much closely you all to joy but being a classic Disney fan as we both are they're really ignoring the classic stuff yeah really well here's the thing we had that shot with Warren specters Epic Mickey that that came not to not that you know dig up that old grave but that game was the the chance that that like hardcore Disney fans had it kind of redeeming the medium i guess but no that's gone that's gone that was its shot and I don't see it coming back anytime soon so yeah I mean we we got you know a fantasia Mickey as a figure but I mean we've gotten Donald Duck but where yo we haven't gotten goofy we haven't gotten Pluto Daisy mini you know which may not seem that exciting to a lot of people but to classic Disney fans those are important characters there there what built the house of mouse yeah for sure maybe it's some play will see them I don't think so I keep opening uh from Anthony Lima whatever happened to mark I liked his camera reviews Oh Mike Mike Mike went on to other jobs I think you look I know I doing he's doing fine as far as I know I haven't talked to him quite a while uh let's see from Michael the cell do you think we are going to see more gaming features on the new Apple TV to combat the Android TV set tops such as the Nvidia shield now I don't see Apple going into that area Game Center was there was there they're kind of like their little foray and I think it didn't really work it's just not how people play games um I don't think that that the shield I mean the shield itself is unproven tech right now still yeah you know I think there's a lot of potential there and I think that for the user base that wants it it's going to be something that's huge but I just don't see mobile gaming on in the way that a lot of people wanted well and we have a question here from D Norbert that kind of ties into that cloud gaming anyone what do you think hey I did the review for the Nvidia shield and I did try the the grid service and I have to say I was surprised at how smooth that was it was way smoother than I expected and that was 100% cloud play that being said so long as a lot of isp still offer bandwidth caps it's going to be very hard for people to make that their sole source of gaming and a lot and a lot more Iestyn bandwidth isn't a finite resource that's what drives me nuts oh I know I know I my my count resets on Friday and I've had to like tell everyone you're allowed to watch like one show a day for the rest of the month who's your provider a company called cable one yeah see we I don't have any caps i've never lived that life oh it's not fun yeah it's often we're limited to 300 gigabytes a month on our level hi yeah I know do you mind my asking how much you pay a month for 50 50 bucks yeah and it's 300 gigs and once you're up and down like I think I feel like we talked about this 50 down in two up huh that's right to up yeah I don't know i know i'm surprised i can see you right now all right well you're at the office i actually have the $75 package which gives me three up shut up yeah I know and gives me 75 down and 400 gigs a month which actually this month here and I'm the only person in this building every day I have exceeded the bandwidth cap here for the month God but that's what I'm 3999 50 down 50 up no caps I hate you but see bandwidth caps our reality still unfortunately no yeah yeah well and as far as cloud gaming goes I know that that some of the stuff that's that's behind cloud tech I think that Microsoft is doing some impressive stuff crackdown it was announced that all of that city destruction its multiplayer only which is kind of a bummer but it's all powered by cloud so and they can't have it in the single player because the xbox one's not always on console anymore thank goodness yes yes uh let's see here many other questions folks I do see some phone questions if we have time we will get to them but this is primarily a gaming day since joey is our gaming editor i can answer questions about phones you just I don't know what I'm talking about they may not be correct well I kinda want someone asked like a hyper specific question and then let's see if I can be asked my way through it well here's one for just for Rex do you think HTC can make a comeback out of IFA seems like they're m10 maybe a really nice phone with a big battery HTC needs a hit desperately I we love HTC we you know wish nothing but the best for them but they do desperately need a hit hopefully whatever this mystery phone is that's coming before the end of the year is it but we'll just have to wait and see what happened to the m9 the m9 came out it's a great phone it just did not catch with the public the m8 is the one that what's his face is doing commercials for right yeah Robert Downey jr. now ah Gary Oldman yes Gary Oldman also did I make commercials yes yep hey yo I thought knowledge on display for Michael the cell what are your thoughts on the new xbox interface based on Windows 10 I love it I'm excited I don't have Windows 10 installed yet but i think the unification of the platform is really good for Microsoft you know you might not like this but it worked for apple you know and having that platform unification was big in Apple success and I think that having that that platform parody across everything that Microsoft makes is going to be really good for the microsoft suite of hardware I also think that the Xbox app the thing just released on Windows 10 in it it's already promising so I'm a fan I don't know how much i'm going to use Cortana though on the xbox one specifically but well concern you probably don't have your kinect hoped up any longer correct yeah i love the fact that they're adding cortada after most of us have torn the kinect off of our xbox scored it up no that's pretty much I wit with me like you're just taking up space in my life pop by yeah yeah hey I'm also excited we gets the Windows 10 you I seems infinitely faster yeah yeah it does seem a lot faster and hopefully it is uh from saw ha Raja do you think there is going to be a watch dogs too yeah okay then well there but there was your answer all that what everybody uh are you gonna go up it and tell her fullest now yeah for Michael cell Joey and Europe a what do you think Nintendo should do to improve in the in the own x well um not sure what you mean I don't know what's going on with the NX I don't know what they should do to improve it well I think he means from what's happened with the wii u not to take the NX and improve the overall state of the vessel sensitive did um I think that while I don't care i think that nintendo should work a little bit harder to get some more horsepower in their machine um I welcome the innovation I really love the gamepad I know that that that's not everyone's personal opinion but I can't tell you how many times I mean even during dinner now I hand my kid the gamepad with like netflix on like sometimes if we're running late normally he doesn't watch TV during dinner or whatever but like if we're running late i'm trying to condense everything and the kids like gotta have my Octonauts I'm like all right here you go like I pop it on the gamepad form it's really really nice I don't have to disturb the television I just like I like the gamepad so I'm hoping that the NX has things similar um personally if it was if I was someone like dream designing the NX it would be a portable machine that also doubled as a home console um but that it still had enough graphical prowess not maybe not necessarily to go toe-to-toe with the ps4 and xbox one to be but come pretty darn close Nintendo's already proven that they can get to AP for 60 frames per second on their on their games that's a really interesting idea though making it both a portable and a home system because I as we know in Japan portable as almost completed rules the roost man you know if the gamepad had a clamshell design and could be taken anywhere on the road it was lighter thinner and looked better or whatever like you have a killer system yeah that's a very good point it's a very good point that's that's not right I I wish we knew a little bit more about the NX I understand why we don't but it would be nice to know a little bit more about it yeah I'm sure it's coming it's just you know it's Nintendo and Nintendo's got a lot going on right now especially with the passing of aguada but it will be interesting to follow along and see where the NX takes us from aerial palette Nick I believe I said that court you crushed that one thank you do you think the council era is over or going to be over soon no nope don't think people were the demise of the home consoles was something that was happening with the 360 and ps4 our ps3 and Wii and now we're that the ps4 and xbox one I mean what was the stat that this is the fastest fastest selling console generation ever yeah not going anywhere I mean it's expanding and i love the pc i love it i do a lot of gaming on my pc but console gaming and the living room are too they're totally separate things and I don't see them leaving so yeah i I just I can't see it going anywhere anytime soon a pc gaming is great don't get me wrong i I've been a pc gamer in the past but if you go out and you talk to your average person that it was shopping for a game at walmart or something you go oh hey yo are you are you gonna be building a gaming rig what's that yeah right you know your average person is not going to want to sit down and build a gaming rig or by a computer specifically designed for gaming they like the idea of i plug this into my television and it works yeah which unfortunately is becoming less and less prevalent thanks to patches and updates and everything else but that that plug and play mentality is what maybe it's what made console gaming what it is today so yeah no I don't think it's going anywhere if anything I think it's going to continue to take over the living room I mean nothing but why is it that the best netflix devices are our home consoles now uh from saha raja Joey you know you sound a bit like Vince Gilligan I don't know that is crater Breaking Bad oh I appear since everyone says I sound like Seth Rogen I could do bring I like this yes exactly that's the main reason I got
