Fatal Frame, A REAL EFFORT THIS TIME.

How was the Wii U one not a real effort? Are you referring to the digital-only release in NA?

0 marketing and 0 physical version. wtf.

Ah, okay, I thought you meant the game itself.

Yeah, no physical release in NA and no marketing was pretty lame. I wish Nintendo had more faith in games that aren't E-rated.



FPS
RACE SIM - Still waiting on Project Cars......
SPORTS GAMES - Real ones without Mario in them and licensed players

Grand Strategy. It hasn't happened on consoles since the SNES, but I want a Civilization game on my Switch.

Isn't Civ 4X rather than grand strategy? And it has happened since the SNES, Civilization Revolution released on PS3/360/DS and it's sequel released on Vita.

Switch does actually have a couple grand strategy games though, Nobunaga's Ambition and Romance of the Three Kingdoms are grand strategy

mario x rabbids Xcom too :P

Having one game of each genre doesn't cut it when it comes to genre diversity. Not judging the Switch, because it's still a young platform, just saying that this thread is odd...

XCOM is nothing like those games though. That's more turn based tactics/strategy, which I believe is much closer to Fire Emblem than Civ, right?

that's true

From its launch to now, the Switch has 62 games (by my counting) from the wiki list, that are released for it.

They have:
Party, rpg, racing, kart racing, rythme,action-adventure,action-platformer,puzzle,action, platformer, fighter, shoot'em up, roguelike, sports, simulation,boardgame,strategy, action-puzzle, sandbox, rythme-horror, tRPG.

Missing genre's : turnbased rpg? Action-rpgs? Horror, FPS, 3rdPS, Mobas? MMOs/MMORPGs?

genre miss-represented most : rpgs (imo) (can never have to many)

Tower Defense?

I had forgotten those and I enjoy a good TD.



FPS. Rhythm. Horror. Adventure (point n click). Visual Novel. Dating sim. Character Action. Stealth.



I think nearly 90% of the games shouldn't even be counted as there mostly really old neo Geo games. It's one and only proper Platformer is very non traditional ( Snake pass). The games will come eventually though. One genre I haven't seen any evidence off though is a Racing Sim, or a proper FPS. This need rectifying immediately for the cause
of genre diversity.



A true RTS
