| theDX said: The issue I have with this list is that you're only expecting one major game to come out every month. It may make sense now because that's the current pattern, but surely the amount of new games is going to increase during the holiday season? I see no reason why Nintendo alone shouldn't have 2+ major titles planned for a November and December release each, unless they know Switch supply issues will be so severe that they will hurt software sales. MHXX and Mario Odyssey for example can coexist in December. |
I expect they'll be banking on Odyssey and Xenoblade sales for the holidays and will continue to space out releases with the aim of maintaining momentum in year two (assuming they still have it at that point).
This opening year is more than enough as far as console launch years go (people always seem to forget how weak launch years usually are across the consoles), no need to pile more titles into it that will be overlooked and wind up with a big software gap in 2018.
