Imagine bitching because your 10 year old phone GPU can’t push polygons.
You are lucky they made it work as well as they did on switch and don’t charge you EXTRA for the absurd amount of optimization that it must have took to get it even workable.
I’m sure there are people out there with Switch as their only means to play games that would like to be able to play Mortal Kombat now and are happy it’s available. The people complaining have unrealistic expectations, either for what the Switch’s hardware can render, the amount of work that was and is required to make a game like it work on the Switch in the first place, or both. If you don’t want to play an inferior version of the game don’t buy it, but you clearly aren’t the target audience for the game.
I mean, it probably would have been better than this. Not every game needs to release on all platforms. NeverRealm made a stupid decision trying to release on Switch at the same time as other consoles, especially when the Switch already has a foot in the grave as it is.
If they’d have waited for the new hardware, sure some fans might’ve been a little upset, but it’s not like there’s a whole lot of crossover between MK fans and players who only own a Switch in the first place. Half of the MK games never got released on a Nintendo platform at all, and several that did didn’t release simultaneously with other platforms, and were also heavily modified ports.
They could’ve waited a year or two, and not left such a bad taste in players’ mouths. I’m sure most people would’ve rather waited.
Ah yes, I’m sure Sony lost oodles of money sitting on Spider-man and FF7R for years before they were ported to PC, or the other console “exclusives” that have a 3-12 month waiting period.
That’s for the development company to decide. If its profitable they will keep releasing because there’s a market of people that want to play the game and only have a switch. Mortal Kombat is a multiplayer game that you play for the combat, not the graphics. You can play it for the graphics but fighting games fans don’t really, so if the game runs on the switch they open up to a huge extra market.
What a bunch of whiney cunts.

It seems easier to just not release these games on switch and focus on the stuff it can run
Or maybe just wait for the Switch 2, since that’s actually looking like it’s real? This could’ve been a good 3rd party launch title for it.

Yeah dude lets just push back that game for a year or two while we wait for the next gen. I’m sure that’s just free and not costly at all.

I’m sure that’s what happened to Hogwarts Legacy
