LegitHyperbole said: It won't allow me to quote but yeah, that looks far more legit than the one in the OP. I'd say the ps5 numbers are higher indeed. I've been scrolling through the all games tabs on PSN and Switch and there are thousands indeed. There is so many on Switch it's unbelievable that people are actually buying these games in significant numbers to warrant porting them onto the system. |
This is an aspect that I do not think is mentioned so often. We as gamers want as many games as possible on our chosen platform to play. But for someone who publish games seeing the large numbers of other games one have to compete with can probably be a bit disheartening. At the same time a large pool of games usually means a higher amount of systems sold.
But console sales is obviously not the only factor. How easy it is to develop for is also a major reason one system is chosen instead of another. I think that this is an area where Switch somehow succeeded. Even if the power is significantly lower so many games have been ported over to it, even before the system was a runaway success.
