Support NeoGAF

[Chrono321]

It's on Nintendo to make sure that all ports are up to snuff and that the online infrastructure facilitates what these games are trying to do.

You are right but even the single player experiences didn't sell on Wii U. The games that didn't need online features at all.

 

[SalvaPot]

SFV isn't coming & Lawbreakers isn't even Epic....

Nintendo vs Capcom.

Also this means we are finally getting a main Monster Hunter programmed for HD.

 

[blu]

Code Masters - we're finally getting a proper racing sim on a nintendo after a loong pause. Last nitendo with a sim was the cube.

 

[slightconfuse]

lets hope this is a rea thing this time.

wii u was a disater

 

[blackflag]

Capcom support means Monster Hunter of course but I will dream of A fully functional SFV on this.

 

[jmizzal]

FIFA is coming so Madden 18 will prob happen, March 2017 is too late for Madden 17

Also nice to see NBA 2K on it, being able to play and get get VC on the go can be big

Question I asked on Twitter, is there info about what these partners are doing yet? Does being a partner mean they're developing new games for the system (either exclusive or alongside X1/PS4/PC versions) or could this just be a ton of ports?

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

So what are the major omissions here?

CD Projekt Red?


Support was non existant since before it came out. Some took advantage of trickle down advertising of a new system for quick bucks from ports, which didn't exactly pan out either.

CDPR doesn't even have anything besides Cyberpunk and that won't be for a long time.

Just mean companies working on the system.

 

[Undead Fantasy]

Capcom and SE is all I need.

I wonder if a new Resident Evil is on the works for the Switch or just a port.

YUP

No more of this Upscaling the 3DS version shit

 

[The Hermit]

The next countdown: The reveal of Monster Hunter 5 on NX.

Capcom will have to change the assests for once now

This is system is like made for MonHun though, being a console and portable.

And I maybe we will finally see racing sims again with Codemasters on a Nintendo console

on a side note, did anyone else noticed the lag on the portable Zelda footage? I wonder how the dock will change the system, considering the size I think it HAS an impact.

 

[eFKac]

Can see this list shrinking fast, after the first batch of games sell below expectations.

It should at least have a couple of cool ports like Skyrim though.

It's gonna be a port.

Its what I wanted Capcom to do with PS4/Vita

Now I get what i want FINALLY with the Nintendo Switch

 

[Tom Nook]

*googles from software*

YES!

 

[jmizzal]

I don't see how anyone looks at Skyrim as some indicator that the third parties will support this device. I'll believe it when I see it.

Its because Bethesda has not ever put anything worth while on Nintendo hardware, the fact that they are putting Skyrim on it is a big deal.

It means the hardware is good, Bethesda bad mouth WiiU hardware in the past, and they have experience with the hardware so theirs a chance more games will come

A remaster of a 5 year old title means it's good?

Not saying it is, but Skyrim isn't the great example to use.

 

[Undead Fantasy]

It can still be a new game.

Revelations was announced on the same E3 the 3DS was unveiled.

 

[Interfectum]

Gwent?

Yes?

The remaster is coming to PS4/xbox one too, so I guess thats bad too right

But my point is Bethesda is putting forth the effort is why it means its good

 

[Mupod]

Its what I wanted Capcom to do with PS4/Vita

Now I get what i want FINALLY with the Nintendo Switch

"Monster Hunter 5 available now on iOS and android"

 

[Atomski]

FROM does a lot more than souls, mind you.

Don't they have a few unannounced games in the works... Like 3?

 

[Ray Down]

I really doubt they got some new console RE game in devolpment other than RE7 & Resident Evil 2 R. Maybe Revelations 3, but my money is on a port of 7.

 

[AfroDust]

*googles from software*

YES!

You're a gaffer and you didn't know From was responsible for the Souls series?? *poking fun, not trying to be condescending*

 

[Brix]

Yeah I'm buying Nintendo switch over scorpio. Finally they are getting good third party support!

 

[Memento]

These pre-launch "developers on board" images are always present with every single console announcement. Will they stick to it though? Keep supporting? Even Vita and Wii U had a board like that. Lets not kid ourselves.

Still, wish all the luck to Nintendo.

 

[Fulminator]

god damn that is a nice list

i am incredibly hyped for this, and i didn't think i would be

It's just wishful thinking, the WiiU was the same story with that dev list.

Good support might happen but Nintendo's track record is anything but encouraging when it comes to 3rd parties.

 

[Calm Mind]

Many of the posts in this thread have me questioning a lot of you as games enthusiasts.

Wii U = limited to no Western 3rd party support because of the lack of UE4

Switch = robust software lineup from Japanese and Western 3rd party due to UE4

 

[Phamit]

Image & Form are also working on a Switch game

 

[royox]

*googles from software*

YES!

If you needed to google "FromSoftware" to know this I don't understand your hype.

 

[roknin]

The next countdown: The reveal of Monster Hunter 5 on NX.

This is literally the main thing I'm waiting on.

 

[scitek]

I hope we get a port of Ninja Blade!!!!

 

[TAFK]

So if these partners are continuing support are we finally going to see the age of PS3/4 or Xbox360/1 + Nintendo Console go away? I'd have to imagine some people would be cool getting multiplat + nintendo games all on one system instead of having to go across multiple platforms.

 

[Giant Panda]

These lists usually don't mean much. I'll wait and see what actual games are announced.

 

[Lotto]

who are they switching from

 

[Derwind]

I don't normally post here but just wanted to say I'm pretty happy to see so much 3rd party support pledged for the Switch.

 

[Bioshocker]

Lots of unprecedented partnerships there.

Not true. Star Trek: Conquest is amazing. I still play it on my Wii.

 

[Dark_3nergy]

My body is SOOO ready for this! MH5 back on console/TV screen again will be awesome.

 

[jjasso21]

Great news if most of these support the Nintendo Switch. I love Nintendo 1st part titles for the Wii U, but they were sorely lacking in 3rd parties.

 

[Dugna]

dude, we can finally get a fleshed out fucking SMT again Atlus has no pure handhelds to keep it on.

 

[mrmickfran]

Can I get a confirmation of Sonic Mania pls

Honestly, nintendo's best bet is to be that +1. I'd even argue Nintendo should think about marketing that way. You'll have a hard time swaying a hardline Xbox or PS4 owner that the Switch should be their only console, but it might be a lot easier to convince them that they're the best supporting console versus getting mostly the same experience on their direct rival's system.

 

[richman555]

I guess Nintendo is going 3rd party! Wow!

 

[Byronic Hero]

FROM SOFTWARE is all I needed to see. I'm there. I liked how one of the first games shown off was Skyrim Remastered, that was nice. This lineup of publishers looks promising, I'm excited to see what they come up with for this.

 

[xzeldax3]

I really hope the third party support blows the Wii U out of the water.

 

[dan2026]

Lol Konami isn't going to make anything for Nintendo.
