they're obsessed with novelty instead of good games. or put another way, they're obsessed with hardware innovation instead of software (game) innovation.

the problem is, hardware is peaking, more or less. now is the time to go full-on with software innovation, but you need a powerful enough system to do it with, and you need to promote games and game development. stop wasting time and money on hardware R&D and focus on software.

we should be drowning in a Nintendo sea of gaming innovation, which is what the SNES was like and why it was so good, but that sure isn't how things are now...


You don't need a ton of tech to have good games. In fact, the tech race is generally a race to the bottom where bloated graphical budgets take away from good gameplay.
