Slow year but I was basically playing Xenoblade (then Torna), Octopath, Hollow Knight until pokemon and smash arrived and didnt notice that much
Yeah I guess. I don't see DQXI in 2019 for sure, and I don't see Metroid 4 coming as quickly as people assume either. Maybe everything else is fine thinking about it.In the confirmed 2019 list? I think DQ11 and Doom Eternal are the only ones there that have not officially been given a 2019 date but everything else has.
Even though Switch is succeeding with core gamers, Nintendo has yet to land a Switch version of the casual-friendly, money-making megahits it had with Wii Fit or Wii Music. There's a lot of money in those casual gamers, so look for Nintendo to throw a few more lines into that deep blue ocean in 2019. However that fishing expedition turns out, Nintendo's 2019 lineup doesn't seem like it'll leave anyone with much to complain about.
It's on you that you didn't play celest or octopath traveler, or dead cells, or the messenger. And if you didn't own a wii u like half the people who own a switch, you had access to tropical freeze and bayonetta 1&2, as well as hyrule warriors. This isn't a bad year for any console, just not as crazy as 2017 was.
I don't think this is complete and some of the stuff (Like Doom Eternal) isn't 100% confirmed for 2019 yet but:
While I am excited for a number of titles next year on the Switch, a graphic like this shows how much room Nintendo has to grow and kinda the different mindsets with how gamers who primarily play in one product family see gaming (Thats not a knock on anyone btw). The exclusives look excellent, as always with a Nintendo console and the ports on the graphic look good but the amount is tiny. I play way more games than the average consumer (At 62 beat for the year) and so my opinion is heavily skewed. When you look at the amount of third party titles (and generally good to okay ones) being released on PS4/Xbox it swamps Nintendo's lineup neatly.
The good thing though is Nintendo is becoming more prevalent with third party companies which is great to see so hopefully graphics like this farther down the graphic icons are much smaller and the amount of icons is much larger! (This was already a big image!)
It's not the full article.You might wanna edit the OP. It isn't cool or allowed to post an entire article on here.
It is poor form to include more than like 1-2 paragraphs.
I just added two paras from three sections in a five section long article, each much longer than three sections. Really, look at how big the source is.
Which to be fair is most people in the world. The Switch is already doubling the LTD sales of Wii U, so even if we assume every single Wii U owner bought a Switch, the Switch already has a fair share of its base that is perfectly catered to with Wii U ports.I can understand this year to be quite overwhelming for someone who bought a Wii U. But for us that skipped that console, this year was still a blast. Not like last year, but still awesome.

I don't play online (couldn't if I wanted to, I'm not paying Nintendo for that) and the single player is extremely dull. It's mostly around collecting spirits which have very little point to them outside of "oooh it's that character!" and feels almost like a gacha system. Everything about that setup rubs me the wrong way. Basically there's not enough interesting content there.
"The biggest game in the universe dropped on Switch this year but with some carefully placed words I can move the goalposts to wherever I want!".

Every year is a bad year if you don't like some of the major games.
For me it wasn't too bad, although there was of course less exciting tent-pole releases that I was looking forward to. I still played a ton though overall especially compared to PS4 and XBO. Like I probably played 2x as much as both of those systems combined.
The spirt you're guaranteed to get after a fight is a gacha system? What?

1400 games in 2 years isn't necessarily a good thing. Any semblance of quality control and curation have been thrown out the window.
