Again, I didnt say it would make all the difference, I said it would make a difference.Stop putting words in my mouth.And honestly, people should start looking beyond themselves.Fortnite, like it or not, is a huge grab for the system, even if all other systems already have it.I mean, the numbers speak for themselves.The other ones are also relevant.

I mean, just because you diont like those games, or arent interest in them, dosent mean you represent everyone.Not all of us are a Einsam Dolphins.

Irrelevant semantics, plus that part of the post was not directed at only you specifically. No one ever said anything about Fortnite not being a good get, speaking of putting words in people's mouths. However it is undeniable that Nintendo systems are bought primarily for Nintendo games, so naturally the 3rd party stuff doesn't hold as much weight as 1st party to most people. That's not me saying everyone is me lol, that's just going by sales data and from actually listening to those who were disappointed in the direct.

But numbers dont support that, at least not entirely.Yes, Nintendo games do the biggest weightlifting for the system, but third parties and indies are selling the best on the Switch, and even if you dont consider the competitors, its been ages that a good number of companies other than Nintendo are finding success on the Switch.This in turn points that the current userbase of the system have a taste that expands beyond Nintendo related IPs, or franchises that are usually tied to Nintendo consoles, like Overcooked, Steamworld, Sonic Mania, Fifa, Rocket League, Super Bomberman R, Puyo Puyo Tetris, Golf Story just to name a few.I got to this conclusion by also looking at sales data and by looking on everyones reaction and expectation before, during and after the presentation, in various forums.
