<p>We’ve just got word from the Big N that the <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2018/01/nintendo_switch_is_the_fastest_selling_console_in_us_history_with_4_8_million_units_sold">Nintendo Switch has become the fastest-selling home video game system of all time in the U.S.</a> While this is obviously amazing news, this line in the press release about upcoming third party support really stood out to us:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>This year, Nintendo Switch owners can look forward to Nintendo-published games like Kirby Star Allies, Bayonetta, Bayonetta 2 and a new game starring Yoshi. Fans can also expect continued support from major publishers such as EA, Activision, Ubisoft, Capcom, SEGA, Take 2 and Bethesda, plus a growing catalog of quality content from indie developers.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Which games those third parties could realistically consider porting to the Switch is another matter, but older games like <strong>Red Dead Redemption</strong> seem like likely candidates. Here are some of the key franchises from each of those publishers for your consideration:</p>
<ul>
<li>EA – FIFA, Madden, Star Wars, Battlefield</li>
<li>Activision – Call of Duty, Overwatch, Destiny</li>
<li>Ubisoft – Assassin’s Creed, Tom Clancy, Rayman, The Crew, Watch Dogs</li>
<li>Capcom – Resident Evil, Monster Hunter, Street Fighter</li>
<li>SEGA – Sonic, Persona, Yakuza</li>
<li>Take 2 – NBA, WWE, Mafia, BioShock, GTA (Rockstar), Red Dead (Rockstar)</li>
<li>Bethesda – Fallout, Elder Scrolls, Dishonored, Evil Within</li>
</ul>
