Nintendo CEO Says There Are More Unannounced Switch Titles to Boost Console Sales Even Further

Today, Nintendo CEO Tatsumi Kimishima has repeatedly talked about unannounced Switch titles that should boost the console's sales even further than they already are.

These titles haven't been given any detail, we don't even know if they're first party or not, so we could be looking at even more first party Nintendo games soon. During this press event, Kimishima stated:

"Regarding Nintendo Switch, we will maintain buzz about The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and 1-2-Switch, which are off to a phenomenal start, and release Mario Kart 8 Deluxe in April and ARMS in June worldwide. We will release Splatoon 2 in July. Splatoon 2 exemplifies the concept of Nintendo Switch, enabling consumers to play anywhere, anytime, and with anyone, and will bring competition between consumers to new levels of excitement. In addition, we will maintain favorable conditions surrounding Nintendo Switch by providing a continuous stream of appealing third-party titles across varying genres. We aim to stimulate the platform and expand sales going into the holiday season this year."

We've already gotZelda: Breath of the Wild with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, ARMS and Splatoon 2 in the works. The only issue seen is the inability to keep Switch stocked at game stores, which as a company is a better problem to have.

The sales numbers of the Nintendo Switch look great, sitting at 2.74 million shipped. See the breakdown of numbers here.
