Out of all the 3rd party games coming to the Switch this year, the two I've seen people arguing more about are TES Skyrim and FIFA 2018. Outside of Mario + Rabbids (which is technically a Mario game), these two seem to be the biggest western 3rd party games for the Switch, and their success or failure could mean a lot for the system in the long run. So which one do you think it's going to sell better, Skyrim or FIFA 18?
Skyrim PROS | Skyrim CONS |
Skyrim on the go. | Skyrim is already everywhere else, and at a discounted price. |
Nintendo consoles like games like Skyrim, just like Zelda BOTW's sales prove. | Bethesda has a less than perfect rep when it comes to launch performances, so it might hold back initial sales. |
Not a single mention of mods, implying that they may not come to this version. |
FIFA PROS | FIFA CONS |
FIFA Switch is coming at the same time as the other versions. | They haven't included features the other versons have, like the Story mode, making this version look inferior. |
Local multiplayer on the go seems like a great deal. | EA's previous "Unprecedented partnerships" might scare Nintendo fans away. |
Its sales will inmediately stop after the next FIFA is announced. |
First week of FIFA 18
