@bolded: I was actually asking for a list, as I don't remind many. Also, any game being on PS4 and XBO ain't exclusive, so you can count all those out already.

@italic: MK11 is coming to Switch. And again, it's no exclusive either way. What's CTR btw?

As for your last point, that's pretty normal considering how much Microsoft shot themselves into the foot with their anti-consumerism. But that only could work early on, as Microsoft turned the ship around so hard that it's Sony who is looking increasingly anti-consumer. Cross-play, anyone? Starting their second year, they got some very good exclusives which kept the Xbox from catching up. TLOU Remastered, Driveclub, Little Big Planet 3, Bloodborne, GOW III remastered, Journey, Beyond: Two Souls; that's just a few of the exclusives the PS4 got which helped grow the gap to the exclusive-starved XBO.

I guess i don't explain myself well enough.

From the Switch perspective. RE2, KH3, DMC5 are "exclusive" to PS4/XBO, meaning that those are games i can't play on Switch. Take that more than PS4/XBO exclusive game as a antiexclusive game for Switch (if this makes any sense).

MK11 being on Switch was my point. MK11 is an example of a game that comes to Switch at the same time as PS4/XBO unlike KH3, DMC 5 or RE2 (as examples). CTR, by the way is the great and only Crash Team Racing (but now i doubting if it was announced for Switch, so maybe that wasn't a good example).

From those games, only TLOU Remastered sold huge (huge at the level of the best Switch exclusives i mean). Driveclub, LBP3, Bloodborne, GOW III remastered, Journey, Beyond, ...were no the reasons why PS4 sold so well until Uncharted 4 came (the 1st big exclusive game for PS4).

@bolded, no, that doesn't make any sense at all Like I said, just look at the exclusive game-starved XBO and you can see that these don't push sales anywhere near as well anymore as they did last gen. If that would be all it takes, then PS4 and XBO would have similar weekly sales by now, but that's far from happening. It needs real exclusives, meaning totally exclusive games or at least platform (like all the Wii U rereleases on Switch)/console (which are also on PC but not on any other console) exclusives to push the hardware. Switch would probably have a somewhat higher baseline with these multiplats and some spike here and there, but that's about it. Just to quote yourself:"Switch is going to live and die on 1st party Nintendo games. 3rd party games and indies are just icing on the cake." Thing is, that's pretty much true for all 3 now. 

Yes, Crash Team Racing is coming to the Switch, just couldn't make the link between the abbreviation and the game in question.

As for teh last line, you didn't get my point. PS4 had a lot of real exclusive games, a thing that the XBO didn't have. Even with Microsoft turning back on pretty much everything they said at their catastrophic E3 reveal, without the exclusive games to incite gamers to choose their platform it couldn't catch up in sales anymore because they banked too much on the multiplats. Microsoft has learned the lesson and is buying studios left and right right now to avoid this situation on the next gen
