Nintendo switch had 527 games released this year

Xbox had 355 games

PS5 had 395 games

I'm sure there are other factors (like quality of the games, platform exclusivity, etc), but switch is still doing pretty good for an 8 year old console that's too weak to run new multi-plat games.

I'll add that according to that site:

  • switch has 11,439 total games
  • xbox series has 3,285 total games
  • PS5 has 2,699 total games

How many of those PS5 games are actually PS4 games?

And how many of those Switch games are multiplat indies?

And how many of each of those is just shovelware?
