Of course there will be more new games than remasters. The question is how long will it be between the new games. If Nintendos big games for every 2 months after launch is Smash Bros 4, MK8 and Splatoon? Thats not a great flow of games to me. That is a 6 month drought. Nintendo is not in the same situation as Sony. What works for Sony isnt guaranteed to work for Nintendo. Sony can get away with remasters because they have great support for their console. Nintendo needs to gain a bigger audience before they start thinking about porting their WiiU games. Why? Because the early adoters will be the big Nintendo fans like us who have played these games already. I need sleep now... |
I really don't understand what are exactly you saying, do you expect that in first 6 months we will have only 3 ports without new games!? Because that isn't true. You can bet in January we will see plenty of new Switch games and only few Wii U remasters.
But fact is that you dont get out with remasters (also fact is that remasters are today standard) beacuse remasters actually help your platform no other way around. Ports of great Wii U games will affect that Switch be more appealing platform for people that didn't had Wii U, than Switch without ports of great Wii U games.
Like I wrote, Nintendo will not launch Switch with multiple ports/remasters, they will launch with new games and probable just one port. Ports/remasters will not be key Switch launch and 1st year games, games like Zelda BotW, new 3D Mario, new Pokemon, Monster Hunter, posible new Retro game in 1st year...will be main games not ports/remasters of Wii U games. Ports/reamasters of great Wii U games will be only great addon for Switch lineup, and together will make killer 1st year Switch linuep (just imagine new 3D Mario, new 3D Zelda, new Pokemon, new Monster Hunter, some other new games, and Wii U remasters MK8.5, Splatoon 1.5, Smash Bros 4.5...all in 1st year).
