Games like No More Heroes 3 aren't going to push hardware momentum though, for that you need games like Animal Crossing, BOTW2, or past examples like Pokemon and Smash. All i was saying is that as of now, those other big games they'll need to keep sales high throughout the year haven't been confirmed, so their currently announced lineup is very weak.

Not on their own, that's right. They don't push sales and the baseline weekly sales up. But they keep the baseline from dropping down again, and as such are invaluable for the total sales in a given year.

They do help, yes, but the big games are ultimately more important, especially when it comes to hitting big numbers like the 20 million they achieved in 2019 and should be able to achieve again this year if they play their cards right.
