Switch har redan blivit något av ett indieparadis med massor av fina mindre spel att avnjuta, något användarna också gör i högre utsträckning än till de andra formaten. Och det verkar som att det kommer bli ännu mer av den varan. Via en Q&A Summary från senaste mötet med aktieägarna av företaget finns nämligen en fråga om hur Nintendo ska "integrate these kind of games into its future business strategy". Det besvarar senior executive officer Susumu Tanaka såhär:
"We started working with indie developers during the Wii U generation. For Nintendo Switch, we set up a development environment that supports Unity middleware, which is used on smartphones and other platforms. We are also actively engaging with indie developers at video game-focused shows and other events in different regions. We also had a Nintendo booth at the BitSummit indie game event held in Kyoto, where we showcased some games. Some of the indie games already released have gone on to become million sellers worldwide. In the future, we are looking to release around 20 to 30 indie games on Nintendo Switch per week, and we definitely expect to see some great games among them."
Förra Nintendo-chefen Tatsumi Kimishima lade till:
"We are currently working towards reaching 1,500 software titles developed for Nintendo platforms using Unity. I think that will give you an idea of how much it has grown."
Kort sagt räknar de alltså med att släppa i runt slängar 1100-1500 indies per år. Kan det någonsin bli för mycket eller är detta enbart positivt, tycker du?
