This looks AMAZING. And now i'm no longer worried for this year. Big game in July annonced randomly on Twitter mid May.
Game looks fresh and full of ideas, you really see the difference with teams having lots of time to work on their projects.

Apparently partners are back btw.

I wouldn't call Paper Mario a big game exactly.  It has Mario in the title.  But, other than that, it's more of a single-A game IMO.  Not that there's anything wrong with it.  But, it's not going to sell 10m copies or anything like that.

That’s debatable honestly. We saw the PM franchise was capable of moving around 4m units on a system with a huge install base like Wii. Nintendo’s first party software sales on switch have been completely on fire and this is likely the biggest game switch has to offer before the fall or maybe even holiday season. Add in if things are still not really back to normal and people are still quarantining, and I can see a well received Origami King pushing like 8m lt. That’s  a pretty big game at that point, many franchises wish they had a seller like that.
