Shortly after Nintendo released the trailer for its portable “Split” console, the Japanese gaming company also announced in a press release that it is going to be getting third-party developer support. Looking at the list, it would seem that Nintendo is trying to get games from just about every major video game studio in the market.
The Verge compiled a list of every single one of the dozens of developers that are going to be supporting the Nintendo “Split” going, which includes heavy hitters like EA, Activision, Ubisoft, From Software, and Bethesda. Anyone who watched the trailer will know about Bethesda’s involvement in particular, largely because of the prominent role that “Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim” played in the reveal.
What’s more, the list is apparently just “some” of the partners that are already onboard. This means that there are potentially dozens more third-party companies to jump on the “Split” bandwagon, which can only mean good things coming for both Nintendo and gamers.
It is worth noting, however, that many of these partners haven’t revealed exactly what they will be bringing to the table. They could all be creating titles for the portable console or they could simply be providing support by granting access to assets or IPs. Either way, Nintendo has shown a huge willingness to seek outside support for its latest console, which Tech Crunch notes is for the best.
One of the biggest contributors to the abysmal sales experienced by the GameCube and the Wii U was the notable lack of third-party support. Gamers were largely stuck with playing titles that Nintendo created, which were only fun to a certain extent. As a result, sales figures dropped like a rock.
The Japanese company seems to have learned its lesson and is throwing everything it can into making the “Split” a success. Based on the enthusiasm that game developers like Ubisoft have expressed for the console, it would appear that they believe in it as well.
