Although it's widely assumed that a new Nintendo platform is on the horizon, the Japanese gaming manufacturer has remained silent when it comes to specifics for the time being.

But parts of it were clunky, and despite critical acclaim it was never a huge commercial success.įor BioShock, Irrational – called 2K Boston by the time the game shipped – wanted to bring what it loved about System Shock 2 to a bigger audience. It's a PC classic, and one of the games credited with popularising the immersive sim genre.
