I have played tens of games on my 3ds and WiiU this generation/last generation, or whatever the hell Nintendo is calling a generation. I have bought almost every good 1st party game they created, and only third party exclusives ( Bravely Defualt and Bayonetta 2 for example) because I had a PS4 that I later on traded for an XOne which i currently have because I am a big fan of Gears and Halo.
I know nintendo reuses the same IPs over and over, some better than others. But there was one IP that they brought back on the Nintendo 3ds. This particular IP isnt one you'd expect someone to be fond off, but this game was probably my favorite 3DS game of all time, possibly the most fun I have had since 2012 when it first came out.
That game being: Kid Icarus Uprising!
The major compailnt that the reviewers had was the controls, but in fact I was fond of the controls. The precision and responsivness of the controls gave it alot of room for dedicated gamers to master them. I almost finished all chapters on the highest difficutly, and got around 340 trophies out of the 360. I collected 100s of weapons, and almost always ranked 1st place in multiplayer.
I cant believe I am saying this, but I would want Sakurai to work on this game more than Smash 5 or any other project. Infact, I would get excited for this game more than the Switch itself and Breath of the wild!
