This week on The Alpha Build we tackle the question of: are video games stagnating? It seems like every new game that comes out has a number attached to the end of it or some subtitle indicating its place in a long-running series. Is this a good trend? We discuss.

Also, after last week’s Nintendo Switch presentation we share some final thoughts on the pricing, launch date, and launch titles.

What’s Inside

  • Nintendo Switch: Nintendo released the price ($299) and some of the launch titles (Zelda: Breathe of the Wild) but is it enough or will the Nintendo Switch become the Wii U 2.0?
  • Sequelitis: It seems like every game is a sequel now. John and Max discuss this trend, if movies suffer the same from the same problem, and why we think this might be happening.
