I'm puzzled about Octopath's outstanding success. Look at the following pictures

Switch owners had the choice between an old-looking RPG and a modern RPG with waifus, modern graphics & animation, and they massively picked the one with weak graphics. I believe that can send a wrong message to 3rd parties : now SquareEnix or anyone can make a PSOne-looking RPG, slap exclusive + nostalgia on it and say "hey, Switch fans, this is just for you". Result being that Switch would get less and less high-end games and more old-school ones with low production values.

Just show how good taste of Nintendo fans have when they clearly know what truly is a good game, not the cliche fanservice anime for otaku 

Or it shows that Nintendo fans favor 8 detached short stories instead of a traditional all-encompassing plot. There's a lot more differences between the two than just the visuals after all.
