Too bad being interested in a platform doesn't equate to actually releasing and actively developing games on it.   Which platform(s) are you *currently developing* games for? Xbox One / X

You need interest in making games before actually making them you dildo

Thread is wrong.  Conveniently leaving out the platform most devs are ACTUALLY interested in making games for   :hest:

This isn't going to solve Switch's shovelware indie trash problem. AAA third party games are still going to be absent on the platform. :reg:

And your point is more games are actually coming to Switch now? Or are you just pretending it's not happening because it's not getting EA games that seem to flop consistently.

The only differentiating factor I've seen is Mortal Kombat 11, and that's probably going to be a shit show.

 

If I said to you "list 15 AA/AAA games on Switch not fostered by Nintendo" what would you come up with?

The real number too look at is making games and games that will appear on the platform. 

 

 

 

percentages went from 3% and 5% making games and which games will appear on the platform in 2017 to 18% making games and 22% will release games on it in the future. 

 

 

2017

only three percent of polled developers were making games for the system, while five percent believed their game would show up

 

 

 

2019

 

Which platform(s) are you *currently developing* games for?
Xbox One / X 28%
PlayStation 4 / Pro 31%
Nintendo Switch 18%

 

Which platform(s) do you anticipate your *next* game will be released on?
Xbox One / X 29%
PlayStation 4 / Pro 32%
Nintendo Switch 22%

 

 

That's an increase in actual games being made.  Switch hasn't even been on the Market for two years as yet.... when it launched in 2017 3rd party devs had zero confidence it would do well. 

 

Less than two years later confidence and actual developer activities are increasing.  Big Games aren't made in a year.
