Its crazy Nintendo could do this on a systems with PS3+ power. Cant wait to see what they have cooking for Next Gen system. No devs has made anything this impressive and the craziest part is there's an amazing OPEN AIR adventure game with 3 separate worlds not just the all the various insanely complex systems (physics, chemistry, fusion, sound, weather, etc, and building system just works as intended.

Nintendo:

having it create sounds they didn't record? They also mentioned the info is stored in voxels and an algorithm parses through it... on top of the crazy things you can do with the physics of the objects.

Is it though?

I recall many ps3 era games that had far better visuals

I think it won the award for the gameplay systems instead

No one is talking about Visuals here

Edit: Its crazy the Nintendo Switch could win Best technology and Innovation even among the BIG BOYS 4K, RAYTRACING, SSD, 12O FRAMES and TERAFLOPS BUZZ WORDS that were thrown around when the PS5 & XBOX series were coming to hypes people up. Where are the games to shows for it.

The game with the best technology of 2024 was made on a 2017 system with hardware from 2015.

Just another reminder that raw graphical horsepower is not the end-all-be-all of gaming technology.

I'm sure others are pulling for AI to topple Nintendo in the true innovation space, then Sony can just buy it.

I'd argue that with as much horsepower as is available to studios these days, they largely focus on the wrong things and struggle to even get those things right.

Devs choice for goty. Not too shabby.

Not like there was any competition to begin with.

Every freeroam game on ps3 tuns like shit excrpt for infamous and at times gta5, at times though

 

[Connificent]

There were a lot of physic based game back in the day. The industry dropped it in favor of cinematic shit

 

[FalconPunch]

Just read through the article. No wonder the game won best technology. It shits on everything from a great height. A game where sound is created by physics and not by sound samples? Truly amazing.

Zelda runs like shit too, the game drops a massive amount of frames all the time, reminds me of an n64 game

 

[THE DUCK]

I think it's weird you all are excited about how we are forced to play Nintendo games on 11 year hardware. Yay Nintendo, thank you for getting the most out of ancient tech.
Just sad these absurdly skilled developers have both hands tied behind thier backs. Imagine what kind of masterpiece they could deliver with proper hardware.

 

[cireza]

Might get a taste of that BEAST TECHNOLOGY when that technology will reach 60fps. Until then, not interested

 

[Sakura]

What other title could have possibly won? Of course it was Zelda.

 

[RoadHazard]

Deserved, the game is a technical marvel. Not just that it runs on the potato console, but that everything just WORKS. All those systems working together, and there's pretty much no physics glitches or anything. It's ridiculously polished.

 

[SJRB]

That's hilarious.

 

[Brigandier]

Imagine what Nintendo Devs could do with a console like the PS5 Pro... Especially Monolith and Xenoblade

This is not unexpected, I mean Nintendo sells cardboard and people call it innovation.

They'd give you exactly the same games, with stable 1080p resolution and 120fps if they can pull it.
They're not devs used to wasting resources in redundant animations, state-of-the-art realistic graphics, movie-quality VA, etc etc.

That's why it's always funny to see PC fanatics especially brag about hardware specs and discuss what is and is not possible.

It means nothing if not utilized properly.

[Portugeezer]

You can't deny how good the ultra hand stuff is.

 

[Hudo]

This is fully deserved, imho. What they pulled off with this game on Switch and how fucking robust their physics engine is, is nothing short of impressive. That they even got simulating tension to a robust state is cool. I have yet to encounter any significant bugs.

 

[Shut0wen]

Im not gunna deny theres frame drops, infact it drops from 28-30 on a regular and worst frames drop to as low as 20, but what your saying isnt true and like a said after 10 hours of any bethesda game on ps3 and its fucked due to ps3 having shit memory, game plays at 15fps zelda dowant go anywhere near those levels and id still say a switch is no where near as powerful as a ps3
