Beyond Zelda: The first month of Switch games acts as a promising crystal ball

Enlarge / So many Switch games to play that Zelda: Breath of the Wild has been relegated to the bottom of my bin. (Insane, I know.)

We’ve had a lota lot, lotlot—to say about the new Nintendo Switch game system this past month. But if you are keeping score, you may notice that we haven’t reviewed many games for the home-portable hybrid console.

That’s no small gap in coverage, because as we’ve reported, the portable touchscreen device currently can’t do most of the things you would expect from a modern portable touchscreen device. It has no Web browser; no streaming-media apps; no messaging service; and no cute, Nintendo-styled systems like Miiverse or Streetpass. Until Nintendo issues a substantial patch, the Switch is games or bust.
