That's kind of true, but leaving a lot out. For starters it takes about 6 months to a year to back port a game to the system. We've seen this a few times already and 3rd parties tend to use these games to test the waters. We know that it takes 2 to 3 years to develop a game and a few developers tend to at worst have a years head start. The system is 2 years old Reggie the first batch should be out already and the second batch ready to go. We can see best cases like Ubisoft taking advantage of this and have 4 games out already. One is an exclusive, another a port slapped on to the system last minute and it's prequel after fan outcry, and the last just came out with a starfox tie in.

If I had to guess at this point we should be seeing more. We saw a lot more support on PS4 on its second year from third parties with games like destiny, overwatch, ac unity, etc making their appearance. It was an exciting year to own a PS4 and the years that followed continued a steady trend of new and exciting 3rd party games. Switch seems vacant. Even if we don't count the failed titles like Mass effect Andromeda or watch dogs (though I understand both sold well) , we still have a huge library that kept going. There are devs like EA which refuse for the most part to do anything for switch. Believe me a port of Mass effect trilogy I could take on the go would change some of my attitudes towards the switch. I feel like third parties have ridden this short ride and gotten all they think they can get out of it. As I keep drilling home on here , devs will continue to push beyond the capability of the switch and leave it behind. Games starting development in the last year are Targeting platforms more powerful than what we are using now. Using technologies not suited for switch both in rendering and simulation. A few have this current gen in mind, but they don't want to miss the boat for next. Expect less emphasis on switch from third parties. This is why an underpowered mid generation release expected to Duke it out with consoles as a portable won't do to well. The system will certainly gain some life from the smaller studios that tend to focus on portables like way forward (love those guys), but a few of them may find it hard to reach for the Stars in the way big publishers allow. Switch is a good machine, but it's future is more of the portable market, I hope people weren't expecting this trend forever. For pubs like namco, Capcom, Sega, and other 2nd tier makers of games. Well expect a lot of back ports and remasters as they hope to double dip in the way they always hope to with portables. Still hoping for that xenosaga collection or some more tales of releases. Maybe a breath of fire anthology?
