It just has too many weapons to conquer. - Most marketable looking, named, themed, thought out device in Nintendo history - Combined home and portable divisions - Complementing the mobile craze rather than competing with it. - Several expanded audience Labo type experiments planned to rope in new demographics - Nintendo's growing name and branding in movies, theme parks, cell phone - Massive IP like Pokemon, Smash, and Mario Maker - Increasing third party support for the first time in generations for a Nintendo console - Huge indie presence - International appeal and moving into new territories. - Potential for revision and upgrades" Like really this is exactly what i mean. People assuming the console is loosing momentum in 2018 is only because there was no big games on the horizon nor announced for the year (that we actually had something to look foward too like gameplay or something). The Switch is in the post launch year phase rn, devs that got devs kits will most likely release games starting end of 2018/2019 and most of teams from Nintendo didn't release anything on Switch yet that is brand new. Switch is grabbing the gamer market by the end with games like Zelda/Odyssey, upcoming Smash/Pokémon/Metroid/Bayonetta games and will also take upon the casual market with Labo and all the INSANE marketing they will receive from the Universal theme parks AND movies. There is probably more stuff that Nintendo is working on right now that we have no idea about like a Netflix series of Splatoon or whatever. Also don't forget about China :p |
It could really have potential in China if they release the right games at launch. I've heard the Pokemon series is pretty well known in China, if that's a launch title it could give them some good momentum to start with.
