Resolves to "yes" if Nintendo's next console supports at least 50% of all Nintendo Switch games on launch.

Clarifications:

If all digital-purchase games are transferable, but the physical cartridge slot is a different shape and does not accept Switch cartridges, resolves to YES so long as 50% of Switch games work on launch.

predicts NO

Inactive creator, reopened with close date extended to end of year. Should be extended until Nintendo releases a new console or there is otherwise enough info to know how this resolves.

predicts NO

I think this question should be extended?

Nintendo uses its pricing power very liberally.
I'm not sure they'll give up the opportunity to sell a lot of digital titles yet again.

Clarification request: if all digital-purchase games are transferable, but the physical cartridge slot is a different shape and does not accept Switch cartridges, how does this resolve?

@Noit Resolves as YES so long as 50% of all Switch games work on launch.
