Reggie; Ports to arrive sooner in 2019

Reggie; Ports to arrive sooner in 2019

As we have touched on before, the market is concerned about the lack of big third-party games on the Nintendo Switch. Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime expects this to change next year.

That will mean that we should start seeing more games from third-party developers sometime in 2019.

Reggie Fils-Aime on ports

We’re talking today about a platform that is 16 months old. The development cycle today is multiple years. So I would argue that beginning at the end of this year, or next year, that gap will have closed.

Because key developers have had the development systems, they’ll have been working to create content for our platform from the beginning. That’s what is going to close that time gap.

Well, let’s hope he is right about this development! And let’s hope third parties will go for it even more!
