I'm sure there is an audience for games like Kirby Star Allies, Mario Tennis Aces, and Dark Souls Switch, though I doubt any of them will bring hoards of new consumers flocking to the Switch.

My issue is this; why could they not have more major new games for Q1-Q2? Stuff like a new Donkey Kong Country, Pikmin 4, or a new IP? Now that Nintendo only has one platform to focus on, there's no excuse for their output not to be better than this.

Just because they have one platform doesn’t mean every game should be ready in months or in 1-2 Years. Why wasn’t Mario Odyssey just sooner even though it was notably close to completion way before October? Plus Xenoblade 2 took 3 Years to complete. It took Nintendo about 2 years to develop Splatoon 2 and that game is still getting updated.

Retro have done nothing since 2013. Pikmin 4 was said to be nearly finished in 2015.
