The next generation of Nintendo’s consoles is almost ready for release this year. While most people are excited to get their hands on Nintendo Switch, some have complained about its weak launch lineup.

In a recent meeting with the investors, President Tatsumi Kimishima defended the strategy while explaining the reason. He emphasized the idea of having a strong lineup throughout 2017 and not just the launch month.

“Our thinking in arranging the 2017 software lineup is that it is important to continue to provide new titles regularly without long gaps. This encourages consumers to continue actively playing the system, maintains buzz and spurs continued sales momentum for Nintendo Switch.”

According to Kimishima, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and ARMS will be coming in the first half of the year while Splatoon 2 is planned for summer.

The most anticipated launch title, however, is The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.
