Opinions on Fortnite and PUBG coming to mobile
Posted: Thu Mar 22, 2018 3:21 pm
So last week, Fortnite was released on smartphones. You know, that free-to-play, 100-player shooter everyone won't stop talking about. And apparently PUBG Corp took offense to that (especially since Fortnite basically ripped them off already and stole their thunder), so just recently they released their mobile outing, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds Mobile (or PUBG Mobile for short).
From a technical standpoint, both ports are very impressive. They're full ports, feature-complete, and free-to-play, with the only compromises being graphically. (Ironically, this means that PUBG runs better on a phone than it does on the Xbox One X.)
Now that these ports are on mobile, you start to wonder when these games are coming to Nintendo Switch (since they're now on pretty much everything else). And these ports are living proof that a Switch port of Fortnite is absolutely viable (and maybe PUBG too, if Microsoft makes an exception to the game's Xbox exclusivity), since phones are obviously less powerful than the Switch. The mobile version could be used as a baseline, and then be beefed up from there for maximum graphical quality on the system. I'm not a Fortnite gamer myself, but if it got a Switch port, i'd try it. After all, it's free, why not?
What i'm trying to say is, if Fortnite is available on phones, then where the fuck is my Switch port?
