They also discussed “an even richer variety of new titles from other software publishers”.

Nintendo President **Shuntaro Furukawa** said that many publishers are developing titles for Nintendo Switch because it has met our expectations of widespread adoption, and because we made our development environment available from the very beginning.

The number of Nintendo Switch development kits shipped to publishers continues to greatly exceed the number of kits for any of our previous platforms, and many developers are creating titles for Nintendo Switch.

Well that just goes to show that the Nintendo Switch is really picking up steam not only with consumers, but also with publishers. The future for Nintendo is looking bright!
