I give it a b minus. From a business point of view I think this is solid—new key functionality to drive recurring revenue.
I will not be selling shares anytime soon and am excited for the future.
Nice to finally see what their big online investment is from a few years back when they reported it.
I wanted one more first party AAA game though. They probably have one in the works for holiday release.
Wish they had a camera built into the switch though, the add on webcam is kinda lame and will probably be $80 or some bs knowing N. -

I had my fingers crossed for a Mario game announcement. It seems like we've entered the gaming era where new consoles don't launch with five or more brand new, exclusive (or even cross platform) titles. I remember picking up Condemned: Criminal Origins, Perfect Dark Zero, Quake 4, Dead or Alive 4, and The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. The fact that I'm in Australia meant I had more games when it launched here I guess!

I think the scale of the industry changes things now. Nintendo are probably fairly certain they can sell every switch 2 they can make in the first year or so. So it makes more sense to reserve important titles as tools to convince less eager buys further down the line. They don’t need to do the same hard sell they did coming out of the Wii U disaster either .
