Remember how it seemed that there were never any new games out for the Wii U? According to the NPD (National Purchase Diary), the tables have turned. Mat Piscatella, Video Game analyst at the NPD, reported over 1,400 new releases for the Nintendo Switch. For reference, in the same timeframe, the PS4 received 600 new releases, while the Xbox One followed closely behind at 400. This makes the Switch’s new releases over 400. That’s more than both it’s competitors combined!
