Poll Compared to other Nintendo systems, what do you think about the output of 1st party exclusives on the Switch? (54 votes)
*Obviously, we have to exclude the Virtual Boy right off the bat. *
With so many re-releases of (great) Wii U ports, I think there has been at least some sentiment that 1st party exclusives have been somewhat lacking on the Switch, especially considering it's joined the 100 million units sold club, currently sitting at #5 in the best-selling systems of all time ranking and likely on track to surpass PS4 (#4, about 117mil) and Gameboy (#3, about 119mil.)
Do you think, Nintendo, knowing they could port a bunch of Wii U titles to the Switch, let off the gas a little on the 1st party exclusive front or has the Switch actually had a strong exclusive line-up?
I don't know where ppl land on counting or not counting Breath of the Wild. Personally, I'm ok with counting it but I totally get not counting it.
