Hearthstone Would Have Been Perfect on Switch

"A while back when the official Hearthstone Twitter account left a mysterious tweet to Nintendo, many thought that might have been a hint related to a future Hearthstone port for Switch. After a year of fans speculating, Blizzard shatters dreams and put the rumors to rest." -- Nintendo Enthusiast

Another day another port begging attempt

[Neonridr]

a port of what? certainly not other consoles..

[Prince_TFK]

Just like people beg for Bayonetta 2&3 port?

Nothing is perfect on the Switch. Unless you live in 2008.

“Shatters dreams” is a bit dramatic. I’m sure that the vast majority of Switch players already have a way to play Hearthstone between the PC and mobile devices.

[GameBoyColor]

Yup, that's where I'm at with this. Just like netflix, there is no real reason that it has to be on the console at all since they are on other things that most people already have access to.

Hearthstone would be perfect for any console yet Blizzard refuses to take more of my money

[Pro_TactX]

Its a free to play game. Unless you are planning to buy card packs, or are ok with paying retail for a free game, there isn’t any money to take.

[Servbot41]

You just explained how free-to-play games make money. Good job, have a donut.

[Pro_TactX]

My point is that the Nintendo crowd probably wouldn’t buy in to the card packs enough to justify the development cost. Blizzard doesn’t benefit from people playing a free game unless they are getting microtransacton revenue from it.

Most people who would play the game on the Switch can and probably are already playing it now. Blizzard has little incentive to spend money on development for a Switch version.

Saying that Blizzard refuses to take his money is hyperbole.

according to this webstie every game would've been "perfect" on switch

[Prince_TFK]

Well not all games, but some. Getting to play AAA game on the go is quite awesome.

[Protagonist]

Yesss more begging for the switch Lol.

[bluefox755]

I mean, it's already on phones. Everyone has a phone.
