This is true but then again they never released a hybrid consoles until Switch so who knows. Maybe it will be something like 2017-Mario Kart 8 Deluxe 2018-Smash Bros 4 Deluxe 2020-Mario Kart 9 2021-Smash Bros 5 |
Why make another Mario Kart for the Switch when MK8:D is already selling like pancakes and will probably continue to sell like pancakes for the rest of the generation? Wouldn't it be better to make another IP that won't cannibalize its sales? If a racing game needs to be made, why can't the MK team just make an F-Zero game instead? It would placate a lot of core Nintendo fans and it would give a racing game to people who want to play something more competitive.
Also, why release two Smash games on a single platform? If Smash 5 is going to come out that late, wouldn't it be better to hold off on it until Nintendo's next platform where it can be used as an exclusive system seller? Sakurai was adamant about being done with Smash but if they wait and let him make a couple of non-Smash games for the Switch, maybe the time away would make him amicable towards coming back and making Smash 5 for Nintendo's next console.
