Yeah, I feel the same. These days, I don't think it's important to have good multi-platform games to be successful. I think Nintendo realizes that anything people could port to the Switch, a PC version either already exists or will probably be out sooner or later. They don't want to compete in the same space as the PS4/XB1 with regards to that kind of 3rd-party support, not just because of hardware being an issue, but it's probably not financially sound even if they could. It's a crowded market when we're talking about multi-platform games.
So, the thing Nintendo has to nail is getting 3rd parties to stay away from ports and bring in original games and content. When you think about Nintendo, their major modus operandi has been to get devs interested in creating unique games for their hardware simply by having unique hardware. The N64's controller, the DS touchscreen, the Wiimotes, and the Wii U tablet: that's where Nintendo tends to shine, by getting others to utilize stuff like that.
Anyway, I saw, this article... Sure, Nintendo. Sure...
