Nintendo held a Q&A for their investors during their quarterly report recently, and one of the questions revolved around the fact that many major third-party games are absent from the Switch, and if Nintendo expects the situation to become better next year. The current President of Nintendo, Shuntaro Furukawa, answered:
"We believe that giving consumers a wide selection of software is an extremely important part of operating our platforms. That is why we welcome the introduction of a variety of titles from many different software publishers. Even so, I do not think it is realistic to expect that every
major title will become available on Nintendo Switch. We are speaking with publishers about them actively putting titles on Nintendo Switch that would be an especially good fit for its unique features as a home console system you can carry around, including handheld mode and the ability to bring systems together for local multiplayer. Given the strong publisher support Nintendo Switch has, I would expect the number of titles on it will increase a lot more. That is what really keeps the Nintendo Switch business on the right track."
Do you agree with this response?
