May I introduce you to their last launch day tech demo..... 1-2 Switch?
Yeah. You forgot about $60 launch day tech demo 1-2 Switch, didn't you?
Okay?
The only reason they sold any was because the console released with like one game, which seems to be the same strategy this time around too.
I remember buying breath of the wild, and sniperclips on day 1.
Exactly, the only real first party game was BOTW (and that also released on the Wii u).
There were some smaller games, like 12 switch/snipperclips/fast rmx, but the switch on release (and most of its life) was struggling for games.
It has a shitload of indie games and on top of that a lot of shovel ware though.
