Switch 2 is rumoured for 2024, but what could be launch titles? Metroid prime 4 would be a candidate, but might not a be a system seller.
A new 3d Mario could be a possibility, given wonder is a 2.5d and another team might be working on something.
Zelda - we’ve just had totk released so that seems out.
Mario kart 9 could be a system seller.
Splatoon 3 was only recently released.
What else could be lined up for a launch window, assuming a 2024 release? Maybe 2024 is less plausible 🤔
Didn’t New Horizon have a DLC AND a microtransactions-riddled mobile game?
It has a single DLC, IIRC. I don’t know about the mobile game, but I’m thinking more along the lines of a Paradox game with hundreds worth of DLC, or Sims 4 with thousands, or GTA 5 with a pay to win currency system. I could be wrong, but it seems like Nintendo would be ignoring a golden goose.
My own experience with animal crossing was riding the wave of hype and then giving it up. I don’t think I would get the sequel.
You underestimate the casual gaming crowd. The same people who buy all of the sims content, still play animal crossing to get cozy in bed before sleeping every night.
