You need more paragraphs. Might add mini-headlines for each point to make it clear which paragraphs belong to which point.

All three points somehow go back to first party support and I think it's premature to call that a win already. All of Nintendo's software output going to one platform is an improvement, but at the same time the effect is going to be diminished because development times and required manpower for each project will go up to different degrees.

More importantly though, all those games won't mean much if Nintendo pumps out games that don't attract a broader audience. One of the usual fallacies is in your post, "future looks bright because of 3D Mario" or something like that. 3D Mario has never brought in a broader audience, so that's not going to be the solution. But the reason we have seen that game and not something else is because the preview trailer was tailor-made for the forum population. In that sense, Nintendo has made yet another good decision, but the truly important things have yet to be announced, making the prospects of Switch major speculation.

Thanks for the feedback.My first time making a post this big, so I certainly still need to get better hang of it.

Regarding Nintendo software output, not every game needs to be at the level of a Breath of the Wild title.Nintendo could very well make smaller games like Captain Toad sprinkled here and there, to either fill the space betwenn the big titles or to try new ideas without having to waste resources and manpower in something that could potentially backfire, like Starfox Zero.Splatoon is a clear example of that.Smaller in budget, completed roughly in a year, but it maintains the quality Nintendo is known for.

And the part about the new Mario 3D, I should have explained better.Its more of an statement of that there is still great things to come outside of the launch lineup(i dont believe the Mario game will be ready for launch) to help further convince people that support will not simply drop.Of course that Mario alone is not enough to show that.Certainly nintendo will announce games,before the system is out, that will launch launching in about a 2 year window after the initial launch.Mario is simply the one game from them that Im fairly sure its not going to be in the launch window or anywhere near(Im assuming holiday 2017 is the earliest it could launch), hence the example.



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.
