Personally Id say yes. I havent been this excited and invested in a new console this early in its lifespan in...well, maybe ever. All it needs is for Xenoblade 2 to do well (which I think it will) to really solidify just how great this year was.

I guess Mario Kart 8 doesn't count because everyone played it on their Wii U which everyone has.

Deamcast had the best launch line up for a new console ever, too bad the PS2 basically buried it.

What, Soul Calibur and Power Stone?

To be fair I loved Sonic Adventure even though it was bad.

That's two more than most consoles in their first year. Usually it takes more than a year for a console to get into its groove.

I'd put it up there with Dreamcast, Super Nintendo and OG Xbox.

I love the Switch, but no. I'd say either PS2, or Dreamcast for best launch titles.

PS2 had the worst launch titles of any system ever, wtf man. Fantavision, Eternal Ring and Smuggler's Run? SSX was good tho.

No, short supply and lack of games put off many.

Oh come now, the PS2 launch wasn't that bad. If you want bad, look at the WiiU, and maybe the PS3 as well.

Halo CE was planned for the Mac. Who gives a shit? A game is a game.

The first year for the Switch is great under all metrics.
