Competitive gaming website PVPLive has reported that sources “intimate with eSports team management” have mentioned that Nintendo will be investing more into eSports on the Switch.

              “I know Splatoon was a test run for a competitive game, so they’re either gonna flesh the current game out, or do something for the Switch,” a source claimed. “From what it sounds like, they aren’t looking to make a LoL, CS, or Overwatch,” “They don’t want to be a front runner; they just want to be a part of it.”

              It's nice to see that Nintendo could potentially start caring more for eSports. Splatoon has a lot of potential if you ask me!

really cool, maybe they have more competitive games down the line

It's always a good way to advertise their products. Pokemon and Smash are already pretty good E-Sports, and Splatoon can become big as well.

I'm still waiting for a new F-Zero, that would be AMAZING as an e-sport

Nope, that's part of the gameplay: once per race one player can scream to an opponent "SHOW ME YOUR MOVES", then the opponent is forced to place his switch in the dock, dance for 10 seconds and then he's allowed to keep racing. Depending on how skilled the player proved to be at dancing a 15 members jury will decide an X ammount of speed boost to give to the player

It would be nice to have, definitely a great way to advertise

They were with Wii U with Smash. They showed int he ad they want to appeal more to it. I expect a Pokken port to NS with all the new arcade characters.

Based on the reveal trailer, that would make sense.
