The Nintendo Switch has saw nothing but absolute success since the system officially launched worldwide just a month ago on March 3rd. Despite the console having quite a small launch-lineup and many of the systems online features not ready alongside launch; the console managed to do extraordinary well, already outpacing the Wii during it’s first month. While many believe The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is to thank for the recent Switch success, others, such as myself, firmly believe that Nintendo’s got something special going on with this system, however in order to keep hold of the momentum they’ve got going thus far, they truly have to deliver on the games, especially if 3rd party fails to uphold expectations.
With that said, the company has already confirmed a slew of titles on the way for 2017, with several already being confirmed for 2018 such as a new Fire Emblem title. As far as games that have been fully revealed thus far, many of them have recently either received official release dates, or release windows during Nintendo’s recent Direct Presentation that took place this week.
