In other words don't expect big third party support. It will be out of step with the general industry curve, just like the Wii and Wii U were (lower end graphics with a controller gimmick). Fusion style game sharing will ensure Nintendo really doesn't need third parties to have a steady flow of games anyway though, that's the whole point of a cross platform. I suspect third party support in the sense that the 3DS has third party support (Monster Hunter and a few other notable things). Basically think of a system with 3DS level third party support + all/most of Nintendo's games on one unified ecosystem. For Nintendo (at least in their internal logic) that's probably good enough. |
I think Nintendo is finally going to concede and create a more powerful console thats friendly to third party devs. They know the PS4 and Xbox One are going to be out for a decade, so it wont hurt them to release a new console in 2017 that matches their power.
