this feels like a massive launch lineup, no? Alongside MKW, Deltarune, and GCN. (Well…It’s significantly larger than NSW w/ 5 games lol. IDK much about launch lineups other than that.)
NSW launched with BOTW though
technically NSW2 is launching with both BotW & TotK (NSW2 Edition). ;)
Yeah its funny there was that rumor like last week I think that said Nintendo was gonna have a two phase launch plan with mostly first party games early on and third party in the Fall, in reality it's the exact opposite haha. Third party support looks incredible, even from day 1, while first party support, other than the extremely great looking Mario Kart, looks rather lackluster. At this point a lot of the strength of the first party launch period support is gonna depend on if DK Bananza can reinvent DK as a mega selling Mario-like game. If DK isn't a huge critical and commercial success that is a major system seller then Nintendo better have a hell of a first party lineup coming this summer and Fall.
Didn't they delay the system to 2025 in order to have games ready?? Like, were they just talking about third party games?? haha. Cuz the fact that they delayed it from presumably holiday 2024 to June 2025 would make one think we'd be looking at a robust Mario, MK, DK June/July launch lineup, with more coming soon after, not Mario Kart possibly having to hold the system largely on its own for several months and Mario nowhere in sight.
Third party support for sure is stellar at least. Cyberpunk, DeltaRune, Hogwarts Legacy, Street Fighter 6, Civ VII along with a bunch more all on launch day itself is a heck of a day 1. And the overall third party support means the past 2-3 decades of Nintendo being shunned from having major AAA 3rd party libraries is officially over. Also GC being added day 1 is awesome and oh now I see there's a bunch more than just the 3 games they showed off so that's a great day 1 GC release too for the Expansion Pack.
It's a good news bad news situation. Everything other than brand new Nintendo games looks incredible, but new Nintendo games after MK World is just a big question mark given that the only other main thing is the untested 3D DK rather than the rock solid mega hit that 3D Mario always is.
If I didn't have a PlayStation or Xbox, I'd be super hyped with Switch 2's current lineup.
Since I do, I'm a little disappointed. They really need one more huge game for 2025 whether it's 3D Mario or something else.
