| TheBraveGallade said: Maybe, maybe not. The switch from next year onwards has the full support of BOTH the handheld and console divisions, which is at LEAST a 1.5 times increase. Remember how there were 2 wii and 2 DS zelda titles on the wii? They can easily double down and make 3 this gen, or make extra 2.5D zeldas, for example. FE is also a multi million franchise now, and we still need smash and a 2d mario. We already have a kirby and a new FE title next year confirmed. And who knows, this combining of their two sides to one might FINALLY give them enough time to focus on thier older niche IPs like f zero. |
Yeah but it's harder than ever to make high production value games on Nintendo systems too since the Switch system is more powerful than any of their previous systems so I expect Switch to have similar software output as the 3DS did ... (I'm not sure if smaller japanese developers will be able to keep up anymore)
FE barely hitting 2M units per game to consider it a 'multi-million' franchise isn't all that impressive ... (the series could easily just teter below that and it would easily lose the 'multi-million' status so that's definitely not a reliable description for it now)
@Bold It might or it might not. It was hard enough getting Kid Icarus, Pikmin and Luigi's Mansion to make a return so Nintendo could choose to work on those franchise on the Switch or pursue Star Fox and F Zero instead ... (Decisions, decisions, decisions are so hard to make with limited resources that Nintendo has especially when they've moved on to a harder system)
