  • The Nintendo Switch 2 is expected to receive far better third-party support than its predecessor, but one barrier could hinder its success.

The article from MSN discusses potential challenges for third-party support on the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2. It highlights that while the original Switch has enjoyed significant third-party game support, the transition to a new console might not be as smooth due to several factors. One major barrier could be the hardware specifications of the Switch 2; if it's not powerful enough to run games that are being developed for more advanced systems like the PS5 or Xbox Series X/S, developers might be reluctant to invest in porting or optimizing games for the Switch 2. Additionally, the article mentions the issue of game pricing and market expectations, where consumers might expect Switch 2 games to be priced similarly to those on other current-gen consoles, potentially affecting sales if the hardware can't deliver comparable performance. The success of third-party support will largely depend on how Nintendo positions the Switch 2 in terms of hardware capabilities and market strategy.
