What about the games?
Many titles were announced at the presentation, followed by more immediately following. Most still come from Nintendo’s own development teams and partners, but Nintendo claimed that third parties currently have a combined 80 titles in development. That ‘in development’ part is important because, as we saw with the Wii U prior, third parties are more than willing to heel-turn if they think a console is floundering.
In addition, several of these titles are ports. That doesn’t sound too bad, seeing as the dignified competition has spent three years stocking their libraries with remasters and many people didn’t get to play the Wii U’s best titles.
The following titles are set for the launch period (March):
1, 2, Switch
Has-Been Heroes
