ESO ON Nintendo Switch?!?!?!?.............

Thealteregoroman · October 2016

Ummm I KNOW yall saw that Skyrim Remastered edition on there. Do you think ESO will port it to Nintendo when the new system comes out in March? The population for ESO would prob sky rocket!

If it becomes available would you buy ESO on the new Nintendo Switch?

welllllll if you can download it we gotta know the specs first!

KaleidoscopeEyz · October 2016

No, why would anyone own anything Nintendo unless they have kids. They are constantly inferior systems compared to the competition.

NewBlacksmurf · October 2016

Rofl yeah right.....

No way to talk to others and no way to type either. Seriously doubt you're going to see MMO server types for this platform based on what was presented so far.

We'll have to wait and see but my uneducated guess is no way

A game like ESO, on a handheld? HAHAHAH!

Well with the reveal trailer they made one thing clear: They are NOT aiming solely for kids as their audition, you see nothing but young adults playing in the trailer.

And Nintendo seems to be especially popular among people that age (20-30 years) since many grew up with that stuff.

Its not just gimmicks this time, its more about just playing videogames, a more mature console I think, and im absolutely on NIntendos Side with their Presentation.

Looked at the space footprint on Xbox before Tuesday's download. 72 gigs.

If the switch can handle 128 gig cartridges, the frame rate, and can handle the net speed requirements, then it may just be a matter of whether to fold the switch into one of the console servers or intro them to the pc server crowd. I would expect them to go onto a console server, but then which one? And would that lead to a Multi Console server that mixes Xbox and Nintendo and Ps4?

Too many questions and different ways things could shake out, to be more than just talk at this time.

Prior to the Nintendo Switch reveal trailer, Pete Hines mentioned in an interview(dont know the date right now), they consider working with Nintendo. But they only do so, if the restrictions (talking about the power of the new console) are gone.
I think its save to assume, that the console is atleast as strong as the XboxOne or maybe PS4 since those will run Skyrim Remastered(which we've seen a couple times in the trailer).

O my god, Skyrim on the go. I was happy to get it free for pc, do I have to now buy Switch and Skyrim for that? My pore wallet...

'Pore' wallet indeed! There's a hole in that thing, and all the money is falling out!

PVP would love this though. They could actually teabag the screen.

Best....word...play...ever.... lol.

wenchmore420b14_ESO · October 2016

Bethesda did do Mobil -on-the-go-games. Anyone remember Shadowkey? Dawnstar? Stormhold?
They didn't do to well. But, single player games like Skyrim would be cool. But I doubt we ever see a MMO the size of ESO on one tho.

I play ESO on nVidia Shield K1 without any problems O.o with a small BT mouse and keyboard stand/case which I have with me at all times anyway so...(or you can use controller or them controller stands/whatever)
Only chatting can prove to be tad difficult unless I dramatically upscale the UI or pinch to zoom in on the text box but otherwise it plays like a dream. All you need is a good connection.
For playing on the go it is a LOT more convenient than carrying a bulky laptop with me.
And it's not just ESO, I have my entire steam and even non-steam library with me anywhere I go.
I even played EVE Online on it which is a game with heavy multitasking and micromanagement focus.

runagate · October 2016

I used Miracast to wireless project ESO to my Nvidia Shield 2 years ago but there was no controller support back then and I hated the futzy workaround through 2 different apps just to control the character.

Uriel_Nocturne · October 2016

I understand why some Gamers would be very excited, but personally, I'm not really impressed by the Switch.

Like me for that, hate me for it, it's still my first impression based off Nintendo's teaser video. It seems to be yet another gimmick IMO.

My mind might be changed as future and further information is released, but the "hype-train" doesn't even have the boiler warmed up, much less have started rolling for me.

I don't know... we'll wait and see what the future brings.

Skcarkden · October 2016

A 4th console is exactly what we don't need for as long as cross compatibility does not exist. Single player games, sure. But for communitities of online the more you divide them between picking a console and wall them off the worse it is.

QUEZ420 · October 2016

Not interested at all in yet another console port try hard bruh.

Uriel_Nocturne · October 2016

Adding to my other thought:

Do I really need yet another way to play games?

In my house, we have:
3x Xbox One
2x PS4
1x Gaming rig (my baby)

Do I really need yet another gaming system?

I think not (and I'd have a real hard time justifying it to the wife...). Thus, this newest Nintendo gimmick system will have to be ignored.

My gaming cart is so very full...

Oakmontowls_ESO · October 2016

As excited as I am about the switch, I don't think putting eso on it would be a good idea with the amount of issues console has now with only two platforms.

This is pretty cool.

jeevin · October 2016

I'm one of those people who grew up on a healthy mix of Nintendo consoles and PC games. I'll most likely buy the console anyway but being able to play Eso on the go, truely portable, would be amazing.

hollywood · October 2016

Yeah , I don't think that's going to happen. But I'm buying a Nintendo Switch. I was going to buy one for the new Zelda and future pokemon games , Skyrim is just icing on the cake.

Yup, buying it for Zelda alone.

I probably won't bother with Skyrim, I have it on PC already and it is modded beyond recognition now.

QUEZ420 · October 2016

Plz don't split the playerbase any more then it alrdy is.
