The Nintendo 3DS sold more than 65 Million Units, with no 3rd Party developed game in the top 10 of it’s best selling video games. Gamers are concerned about the lack of 3rd party games on the Nintendo Switch. Though Skyrim, Payday 2 and Fifa 18 are some major games not developed by Nintendo coming to the hybrid console. Do these games really benefit the console? Or will it make the Switch look weak and underpowered when compared to the Playstation4, Xbox One and PC version of the game?
Super Mario Odyssey was the Nintendo Switch’s debut for the franchise, and we saw our red-hatted friend don a new piece of gear that doubled as his new sidekick, Cappy. With so many characters getting some prominent screen time, Luigi felt completely uninvited to this party. That’s why we can’t help but think that Nintendo has something special cooked up for him in Super Mario Odyssey 2.
Games Asylum: "Well, this is uncanny. This school management sim bears a startling resemblance to Two Point Campus, especially when it comes to planning and decorating rooms. Be sure to add a window and a radiator, along with a plant or rubbish bin. Indeed, certain aspects are almost identical – it’s just like revisiting Two Point Campus, only something is…off. It’s the visual style that leads to the uncanny valley feeling, using a low-poly PlayStation/Saturn aesthetic. An odd choice, considering the 32-bit consoles didn’t have a great amount of management sims. The PS1 did have Theme Hospital though – with Two Point Hospital being Campus’ predecessor, so we guess we can give it a pass on its artistic intent."
I almost bought this yesterday lol. Then I remembered I have 1000 games I need to play and I would probably touch this once.
Tokyo Xanadu eX+ has launched on Switch and includes a large helping of new content, including new characters and bosses.
This one is always for sale on PS4 and I never got around to get it, is it any good?
I agree, I am getting tired and worried about all these 3rd party games flooding the eShop, currently it looks like the android google play store with a lot of games that clearly shouldn't be there.
Best example on the Switch is that game you fly around on a motor cycle - Vroom in the night sky. What the heck?
Not a good article, it is common sense to know if Nintendo sell as much consoles as the others, Nintendo games will always outsell others, for example Mario kart Wii before it was bundle sold 32 million with 100 million system sold.......grand theft auto sold 32 million with 160 million system sold Xbox and ps3, so what make him think a 3rd party will sell more than a Nintendo game which get higher ratings compared to other games
Despite Nintendo games always selling well, the 3rd party on handheld line always made money......because with the 3ds or DS, it did not cost millions to make a game like ps4, so any game made for the 3ds or DS made profit with a short amount of sales, so even if 3rd party did not compete with Nintendo, they made a lot more money than they would make selling a game on PS4 or Xbox One......this is why dragon quest series basically belong to Nintendo now.....you can buy dragon quest 1 to 11 if you have a 3ds
Japan knows this so they do not mind selling less than Nintendo because they still make more money than on other systems.......nintendo handheld had games or spinoffs from every top 3rd party games, persona Q, grand theft, etc, most of the time developers out their game there to fund a ps4 game. It's mostly western developers who have a pride issue with their games selling less than 1st party games. This is why they love Sony and Microsoft system in the top 10 of Sony best sellers it have 3rd party taking the top spot with Sony taking the spots at the end or may not be on the list.
The switch since it is also a handheld will get games, will those 3rd party games sell better than Nintendo I highly doubt it but if the developers are fine with 3ds sales they will be all over switch.
lackluster? more like Japanese Developers are making sure they decide on the correct release dates instead of just rushing it out and leave a large droughts.
