It's pretty crazy how insanely successful Switch is (will at worst be 3rd best selling system ever) given that MH Rise is literally the very first entirely third party AAA game that is actually built for the Switch instead of being some really old port or arriving a couple years late (DQXI) or somewhat old downgrade from current home systems. Literally, the only one, and Switch just passed its fourth birthday! Switch has blown away the competition and has a great library despite the fact that the big games in the library are essentially all first party and indies. Imagine if third parties actually put together a team or two each to build AAA games for a system that will very soon be over 100 million systems sold and is by far the hottest thing in the industry.

I’ve been around here since the Wii days, don’t get your hopes up. 

When it comes to Nintendo, other game studios are compleatley retarded and then blame their failure on Nintendo. 

Even compared to the Wii days I think devs could put in a little more effort as far as actual new games. 

Wii may not have gotten as many contemporary ports as Switch due to being more dated relative to its rivals, but it did have a fair few good third party games built from the ground up for it; the Goldeneye 007 remake, Sonic Colours, Red Steel 2, de Blob 1 & 2, Epic Mickey, Dead Space Extraction, and of course Monster Hunter Tri.
