The thing is the fans say they want 3rd party support, yet the majority don't buy them. *flame shield activated* |
The Switch eShop is dominated by third parties:
You're welcome.

Mario+Rabbids and Snipperclips (Plus) are published by Nintendo, though they are developed by third-parties.
I want to see the top 50, though, too.
EDIT: Never mind, Mario+Rabbids is published by Ubisoft (?!)

Fact: Nintendo was getting Doom before the original PlayStation even launched (in the US). Not exactly a perfect port, tho.

The bias is strong with this one. Grumpy he is. Nintendo he loves not.
I will say this, I do think these particular games will make some money because of the lack of shooters on the Switch but in general "darker" games tend to sell awful on Nintendo hardware
Your way of thinking hurts my head...
I for one am buying both Wolfenstein 2 and DOOM for the Switch. As a 30 year old male, being able to play on the go is a much bigger draw than buying it for my PS4.
As far as Nintendo games go, it is sad to see people still try to pass them off as "kiddy". Breath of the Wild is anything but kiddy, and the fact that you tried to put it in that category proves how jaded your views really are. Just because something is appropriate for all ages does not mean it is kiddy.
There is a real problem for third parties on Nintendo platforms but it is not that those that buy Nintendo platforms like "kiddie" games.
The average number of games sold per console (attach rate) is considered good if it is 10 games per console.
On Nintendo consoles people prefer to buy Nintendo games (probably because they get good reviews).
Even a total failure like WiiU managed to sell a lot of Nintendo produced games. According to VGChartz database (physical sales) Nintendo would have 6 games on the top 10 list on XB0. The two best selling Switch games (tLoZ & MK8) would with the same reasoning already be on XB0 top 20.
Comparing with PS4 is also revealing: MK8 on WiiU sell the same amount as Fallout4, CoD:AW or CoD:IW. NSMBU sell the same amount as Destiny, tLoU or Minecraft.
TL:DR.
The attach rate of 10 is mostly filled with Nintendo produced games leaving little room for 3:rd party.
From a sales perspective it would be sufficient for Nintendo to get three 3:rd party games: FIFA, CoD and GTA.

This hits the nail on the head.
