"Titanfall" is one of the highly-rated games that were released for the current generation platforms like the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and the very flexible PC. An interview with one of the developers indicate that the game has no chance of running on Nintendo's upcoming Switch.
In an interview with session with Drunk Tech Review, representative and senior designer of Respawn Entertainment Mohammad Alavi confirms that "Titanfall 2" or just about any "Titanfall" game has no way of running with the Nintendo Switch's hardware. This indicates that not a lot of third party developers are jumping on board with the Switch hype.
Alavi emphasized the lack of processing power of the Nintendo Switch compared to the more powerful platforms like the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. The designer apparently laughed at the idea of putting the game into the Switch, making any hopes for a port, impossible.
Despite clearly stating that he is excited with the release of Nintendo's latest console, Alavi is pretty confident that it will not be getting a lot of third party support since it does not possess the processing power considered as a norm in the modern videogaming.
Alavi made his message clear, though some doubt that he is drunk. Stating "Fuck no! No, you're not going to be able to fit Titanfall 2 on the Nintendo Switch" is quite a straight message that a port will be impossible, though this is merely due to the fact that the console is underpowered.
The designer, however, points that this has always been the case with almost every Nintendo platform. This is certainly true ever since since Nintendo 64 onwards.
Some fans, especially Nintendo Switch followers might have taken the message as offensive, but truth to be told, VG247's report about "Borderlands 3" case. However, some fans deems Pitchford's statements as vague form of message coming from Gearbox.
It is, however, debatable whether a shooter game like "Titanfall" is intended to be played on the Nintendo Switch, given that it really does have its own niche and demographic. There are a number of titles, which also comes as a system seller like "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" and all these issues about third party support may not be that of a big deal at the moment.
