I mean you can't really innovate on controls without doing this

I think that's more because motion controls went out of style (which Switch can do), and Gyro controls never were popular in the Wii U (which Switch can also do). So it makes sense developers aren't making games use those console features much. But the one big feature EVERYONE is doing is the ability to play in handheld only mode. That isn't a must. We could easily have some developers make games that only work in docked mode, but they aren't. In that sense, using that feature, we have thousands of games using the Switch's main unique feature.

Motion controls are still very much a widespread feature on Switch, it's just that the majority of games on the platform are ports from 7th or 8th gen systems and so don't take advantage of the hardware as well as a game made from the ground up would.

It always makes me cringe how the same people that want exclusives to die, also own $500+ phones. If you're willing to pay over $500 for a phone, then you should be willing to pony up $300 to play some exclusive Nintendo games.

Exclusives also help grow a system's userbase which results in it getting healthier software support, so they're a good thing in that way as well.

You need a phone, but you do not need a phone costing $500 and up. I have a $30 POS ZTE branded phone that does 90% of what those $500 to $1000 phones do. Buying an expensive phone is just a colossal waste of money. I could see someone spending $150 or even $200 on a new phone. But $500? That's just crazy.

Everyone gets to play X game, then everyone wins, that's good in my books.

The only issue I see, is when we have so many platforms, refresh systems, that devs find it hard to keep up with making sure said games run decently on said platforms.

I bought into my Switch mostly for indie titles anyway, because I still love portable gaming, an I only ever liked a few Ninty IP's, so there was less interest in exclusive software to buy the system for in the first place.

the problem is, even IF consoles net little profit, they'd need to sell at LEAST 3-4 times as much as a third party to gain as much money doing that... for the same amount of effort. and this is not including the profits they get off of third party games on thier system...

I think exclusivity is more about variety than anything else. You get to choose the platform that gives you the most of your favorite kinds of games. Platforms justify their existence by offering different games, otherwise what's the point of different platforms? Death of exclusives is very worrying, it could over time lead to less platforms, which in turn will lead to less varied games. I'd be horrified if my selection of games was down to one platform, and one that doesn't really cater to my specific needs.
I'm a Sony guy, but if you're not, think about a scenario where all games would be either third party, or Sony games. That would be it. How would that feel?

nintendo 1st party is king for them so it aint changin 4 them!
