Who cares if Nintendo doesn't get WII U owners on board immediately, it'll happen unconditionally for the vast majority of the userbase with ground up titles on the Switch such as Splatoon 2 or SMO and if not those games it'll happen eventually with the release of a new Smash Bros or even Pokemon and if none of those game did it I doubt they would've been convinced with another Zelda title ... (no point in crying over spilt milk essentially) One was a "Bomberman" game which hasn't been a "strong" IP for years so that example is moot and the other is a crossover so it's just as much of a 3rd party exclusive as a 1st party exclusive. We still don't know what Bandai Namco's titles are for the Switch so it's too soon to classify them as "strong" yet and if they also re-clarified whether if it truly is exclusive to the Switch ... Switch Pro (XL doesn't make any sense since Switch is already big in a mobile form factor) isn't going to be a concern for about another 18 months. Nintendo will be plenty busy to focus on capitalizing on a new hardware architecture such as moving from an AMD GPU to a Nvidia GPU and making the transition from PowerPC 750CL CPU to an ARM64 Cortex A72 CPU. It still required tons of preparation on Nintendo's part to even come close to matching 3DS's output with the Switch even after Nintendo had ditched their home console from 2015 and their handheld from 2016 onwards ... We're not talking about critic reception here, we're talking about system sellers and 3DS had comparable titles on that front since it had 3 of the same big franchises as the Switch did at it's point in lifetime. MK8D is just a port of a WII U game compared to MK7 or how BotW was originally intended solely for WII U but you don't see me discounting those game like you are for OoT 3D, now do you ? |
But I wrote that doesn't really matter, beacuse every strong/big game is potential system seller in any case, and 3D Zelda games are always one of biggest Nintendo games evre generation, not buy sales, but buy attention of hole gaming industry, and thats also very important for platform. With every new strong/big game Switch receives it become more desirable console for hole market, that's a fact.
I didn't even counted Bomberman, of course that not of them will be strong, again, point is that Nintendo with Switch will have much more similar 3rd parties like examples that I mentioned.
Doesn't really matter when will be out, point is that Nintendo will not have problem with development when Switch Pro/XL is out. Lol, you again dont make any sense, but Nintendo already done transition to new hardware, its not like Switch yet needs to be launched (how many Switch games they released until now!?), and actually with Switch its probably easier for them compared to Wii U because they had huge problems with Wii U and HD development and first HD games, and actually it's much easier to develop games for Switch compared to Wii U (Switch has much better and easier tools/APIs and Switch supports all engines).
And again, you dont make any sense. No, we dont talk about only about critical receptions here, we talking also about huge attention and popularity that Switch received because those games, those games are very strong system seller games, just look how much they sold until now and you will get picture. So no, 3DS didnt had nothing strong like Zelda BotW or Mario Odyssey, they totally blow away OoT 3D and SM3DL. It doesnt matter if MK8D is just a port of MK8, point is that very strong game and system seller game and actualy one of best MK game ever, and even with MK7, Switch linuep is again stronger, not just game per game but Switch also have Splatoon2 biggest new Nintendo IP and system seller game that will probably be bigger than Smash Bros. Just for record, those titles are released on Switch in just first 8 months of console on market. Zelda BotW on Switch is brand new game while OoT 3D is remake of N64 game, totally different things.

what ever you, yet they aslo said they tried to get FF15 but it wasn't possible, call me when a demanding AAA 30fps gets ported to switch.

This if from link you posted: "That's not to say a port categorically can't happen - Tabata also made clear that no specific optimisations had been made to account for the Switch's power (which could allow for the full game to run) - but no further tests have been made as yet".
