Nintendo is reportedly figuring out what to do with a completed sequel to party game 1-2-Switch that has “tested horribly” among its target audience.
According to Fanbyte writer Imran Khan, citing multiple sources familiar with the game’s development, Nintendo made the decision to begin work on a 1-2-Switch sequel – reportedly known as Everybody’s 1-2-Switch – after the the original shifted a respectable 3.45m copies.
After several iterations, Nintendo is said to have settled on an idea inspired by the Jackbox Party Pack series for its 1-2-Switch sequel, where multiple players (up to 100 in some cases) could use their smartphones to compete in game-show-like mini-game challenges hosted by a man in a rubber horse mask. Reportedly, this somewhat radical shift in focus for the series was to ensure a too-similar sequel didn’t eat into the original mini-game compilation’s ongoing sales.
