NEW NINTENDO Switch games are being confirmed at a steady pace, however, the likes of Titanfall 2 and possibly its big competitors like Battlefield 1 and Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare will likely not be making the leap.

The Nintendo Switch games list will never include Titanfall 2
While we have heard that other big gaming franchises will be making the leap onto the Nintendo Switch games list, it appears that Respawn Entertainment's Titanfall 2 won’t be among them.
Apparently, having seen the specs sheet of the new console, the team behind the mech-fighter title thinks it’s unlikely that their newest game make the jump, due to the lack of power.
During a recent, game designer Mohammad Alavi spoke on the subject of the Nintendo Switch and Titanfall 2, telling Drunk Tech Review: “I was excited about it.
“Nintendo's been in such a niche market recently, catering to the handheld and the kids, they've been so underpowered that they don't have the support of the third parties because they're all making for the PC, Xbox One and PS4, and it's no different.
Asked if they’d be able to play Titanfall 2 on it, Alvi replied: “F**k no! No, you're not going to be able to fit Titanfall 2 on the Nintendo Switch.

“That's the same Zelda from the Wii U?”
Using that logic, it would appear to rule out a host of current-gen games, including the likes of Battlefield 1 and Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare.
However, looking to the future, other game developers may take the approach of offering a slightly lower spec version of their game that is being released on the other consoles and PC.
It was recently revealed that several Nintendo Switch games coming to the console in 2017 have seen pricing realignments, including Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, 1-2-Switch and Arms.

They follow in the footsteps of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild which had previously been given a £60 price tag on Amazon.
This pricing has now been reduced, along with the games mentioned above, some of which have seen retailers move from a £49.99 – £59.99 listing, to £44.99, £34.99 and £49.99 instead.
In a further move revealing Nintendo’s change of heart, a customer representative from Amazon has confirmed to PowerUpGaming that recommended retail price guidelines provided by Nintendo for each item has now changed.
The Nintendo Switch price was revealed during the big presentation in Tokyo last week and appears to have contributed to the company’s drop in stock price in Tokyo.
Many were expecting a lower retail cost, however the Nintendo Switch price has been set for £280 in the UK.
