| Nogamez said: We need original IPS on switch to build up a loyal fan Base. Not games at the end of there series imo. Nintendo should create more games like bayonetta and xenoblade. Brand new IPS that we can get behind.
Edit: I know bayonetta isn't a brand new IP but they bundles the original game with the sequel which is pretty cool. |
The Switch would benefit if it had the games people wanted to play. That could make some late PS360 adopters jump ship. Not having the previous entries is irrelevant. It's not like all Mass Effect games are playable on the PS4. It also doesn't have all GTA games. MGSV was on X1 even if the previous games tended to be PS only (MGS4 was).
IPs like Bayonetta and Xenoblade are great. But Wii U had both and it didn't helped when the competition had GTA and CoD. I'm not saying that those are better, but they sell better. So they move more hardware.
Not having 3rd party support isn't the end of the world. But it surely is a problem and impacts sales. Because people must chose if they want to play Mario and Zelda or GTA, Mass Effect, RDR and Battlefield. 3rd party games far exceed the amount of titles Nintendo can release in a year by themselves. So people either miss all those games or buy two consoles. If all 3rd parties were on NX, people wouldn't have to make a trade-off.
It's also a utter loss in marketing. Nintendo has a budget. Sony and MS have their own budget plus the free advertising provided by all 3rd parties talking about their new games. When a new CoD is about to launch, there will be plenty of trailers and TV ads ending with a PS or XB logo.
