OUR VERDICT
Nintendo

Best for: Players who prioritize first-party game quality. Nintendo's first-party library averages the highest Metacritic scores of any major publisher, with 15+ titles scoring 90+ on a single platform.

Nintendo eShop
Ubisoft

Best for: Open-world players who want consistent content volume. Ubisoft releases more AAA open-world titles per year than any Western publisher. Assassin's Creed Shadows returned the series to Japan after years of fan requests.
