Seeing as how Starfox and Ocarina of Time are both exclusive, I would expect more Nintendo first party games to start becoming exclusive going forward. In previous new console cycles, this is roughly the timeframe the previous gen was dropped. But maybe Nintendo will do it a little differently this time given the size of the Switch 1 userbase.
