It is Much Too Early to Worry About Switch 3rd Party Support

It just needs 3DS levels of 3rd party support, and so far I think it's fulfilling that level if not more and in the future it has the potential to succeed that level greatly as time goes on.

The indie scene has been really big for the Switch so far (I love the physical releases they're getting), and if the Switch winds up being the only dedicated handheld going forward that could certainly help bolster its library.

for the longest time i have said Switch (at the time NX) would recieve solid support of small-medium sized indie, Japanese & kid/family software with the occasional mainstream western title from 3rd parties.

im sticking to that claim.

Yeah so far that seems to be the case and is really helping fill in the gaps between major releases. Really, given the unique nature of the Switch (it being portable) I think people are more accepting of ports of games that released a few years ago than they would otherwise be. I know I certainly find that's true for myself.
