Haha he's not wrong, but trust me if switch had Wii sales they would change their tune real quick, they'd find a way to put that game on the system.

Nintendo laughs off the Titanfall series getting a third game after the second's sales
(Note: I like Titanfall. Just felt this was necessary)

[KavinCatastrophe]

Wow people just keep making fun of Nintendo for doing something New and Different and are just saying Keep everything the same but with Better Graphics.

[m-uy]

And now in 2021 they are porting Apex Legends to Switch. How the turntables

[VeranaXS]

wow 1 angry dev says he won't make a game for the switch (which isn't even his decision) and now everyone suddenly forgets the 80+ games already being made and the 50 devs that said they will make games for it

[TheHobbitFTW]

So we get no Mass effect or Titanfall, but at least we get a FIFA? I'm seriously questioning my Switch preorder

[tetsuokenpachi]

We're laughing too... At their dogshit game. lol I need to check but I think Splatoon on Wii U sold more copies than Titanfall... LMFAO

3 Years Later...
Respawn: "We are happy to announce that Apex Legends is coming to Nintendo Switch."
But for real, I'm glad that they left that quote behind them and are now starting to support the Switch; how about bringing Titanfall 2 to the Switch now?

[xailionheart]

Thats a pretty childish response from the dev. i personally dont see titanfall 2 that visually impressive. it looks like a updated version of the 1st one plus they got titanfall 1 to run on xbox 360.

[TheLastLineLive]

... but they had Titanfall on the 360... so what's his excuse?

[derekk]

he is probably going to regret saying that someday

[minecraftnews]

I agree it couldn't run on the Switch, but he could have been nicer about it lol

[mattjoe]

I'm calling it, the Switch will flop.

[RetroRocks]

this is what happens when you make an underpowered console with 32 Gigabytes of storage

[JamesSmith-ucnt]

And this is how the Switch will flop. How do u expect to have a successful game console without 3rd party support? You can't! and that's Nintendo fell off the grid after the GameCube

[Darthadios]

Oh dear, this doesn´t sound very good for Nintendo. =/ if it is severely underpowered, there will not be third party triple A games for the Switch, so it´s Wii U all over again.

[dgripper]

We don't want that garbage anyway!

[Joshcoshbagosh]

i literally only bought a nintendo switch so i could play Nintendo games...

[RoaringTide]

Finally a dev being brutally honest about hardware.

[Superbad]

I really hope this thing flops, maybe then nintendo will learn its lesson
