| superchunk said: Nintendo is really not that different than 3rd parties in their approach to Switch. They didn't want to put all their eggs in one basket. Instead, they put out quality 1st party "home" console titles out for what they marketed as a home console. They also continued to support the 3DS as the portable console. What I expect to happen is that Nintendo's 2018 (as well as 3rd parties) will be a move to show the strongest portable support will be on Switch with minimal on 3DS. Additionally, I do expect to see 3rd parties port far more of their games to Switch in 2018 as well. 2017 was just too soon and too uncertain for significant investment. |
I dont thinks its point about putting eggs in one basket, they simple continue supporting 3DS because has big instal base and much lower price point compared to Switch, so they can still make quite profit with 3DS regardles Switch, so its logical business decision. Also if you look at that 3DS support you will see that mostly we talk about small projects, ports/remasters, spinoffs, while all big projects are for Switch.
Of Course how time pass, 3DS support will be weaker and weaker...and Switch support can only be stronger and stronger, especially if we talk about 3rd parties. I also expecting much more 3rd party announcements for Switch in 2018.
