Much has already been said about the Nintendo Switch in the past months and how it compares to the Wii U. In the course of a month, some people criticized that the Switch launch lineup is weak. Nintendo President Tatsumi Kimishima has weighed in, stating that the launch is only the start of the console.

Speaking to investors at the earnings briefing this week, Kimishima answered criticism of the launch lineup that includes only two first-party games. The games such as "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" and "1-2 Switch."

The Nintendo president stated that the Japanese gaming company plans to provide new titles regularly without long gaps. Kimishima added that this will encourage customers to continually play the system, maintain buzz and spurs continued sales momentum for the console.

Kimishima further iterated that the 2017 Nintendo Switch game titles exemplify the concept of the system that is to be able to play anywhere with anyone at any time. Kimishima continued that Nintendo will expand and invigorate competition between players.

VG24/7 reports that since Nintendo has been criticized in the past for infrequent first-party releases, this strategy makes a lot of sense. The hybrid console does have a lot of game title to last four to five years such as "Mario Kart Deluxe 8", "Splatoon 2", "Xenoblade 2", "Arms" and more.

According to GameSpot, former Nintendo president Satoru Iwata offered a similar reasoning for the Wii U back in 2012. Iwata said that Nintendo tends to release too many titles at the launch of a hardware system and as a result, it suffers a drop in new games for quite some time after the launch.

However, things didn't go as plans when the Wii U lack new game title releases and caused the console to struggle, selling just 13.56 million units since 2012. Production of the Wii U has just ended globally.

In a previous report, Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime said the Switch won't suffer like the Wii U did. This is because the company will deliver compelling games on a daily basis.
