I read everywhere only big studios and not even all of them are getting devkits. Just forget it if you are an indie dev and your studio is not Team Cherry.
What the fuck are they waiting for?

The Switch eShop was full of garbage because of gaijin with no taste or sense of restraint and they want to limit that now

>>714386305
The switch 2 is backwards compatible you fucking idiot. What’s to stop people from making slop and just keep releasing it since Nintendo is too cheap for quality control?

>>714386305
someone forgot the Switch 2 is BC and all that slop can be played on the new console

>>714386305
Who cares? Open the doors to the slop, and let the audience decide.

think of the children

why nintendo hates indies now

>>714386137 (OP)
indie devs just pump out slop that will make the system look bad
it's better nintendo builds up a strong library of 1st party and major 3rd party content first before letting the average indie shit all over the eshop

>>714386137 (OP)
Nintendo is market leader and makes way more money than Sony does, they make so much money with first party so it doesn't matter if they hold devkits back a bit. It's probably also a trust thing. But the direct haven't happened yet so we don't even know right now which companies got devkits

>>714392109
or they could only allow decent projects to get a devkit and blacklist all pajeets, coomers and asset flippers if they even dare to ask for a devkit

>>714386137 (OP)
Unironically you can probably blame CH for it with their attempt at backstabbing.
They likely would have sold the devkit on the black market had they gotten one.

>>714386137 (OP)
Supposedly it was because they wanted to have as much units as they could for launch, so most would-be devkits were for the consumer. If so there’s good intention there, but if picrel is anything to go by it may backfire

reminder the source for "third parties are selling poorly on the switch 2" is C-team dring

>>714395894
CH?

>believing a grifter over the devs
Typical

>>714397928
compile heart, the devs that claimed they got banned by nintendo even in japan after announcing the nep trilogy in a single cart for 40 only to shadowdrop them anyway for 60 a pop after their pis5 exclusive game broke records on how poorly a CH game can sell

>>714397935
cope

>>714397928
Compile heart. That anon is deranged and assblasted, trying to scapegoat a dev whose games Nintendo has been banning and censoring, trying to pin the blame on them for anything and everything now apparently.

>>714397661
if other studios don't get devkits soon they won't bother
