Yes, 2nd half usually always stronger. But ignoring other games isn’t right. I didn’t pick up the last 2, but I kno they are games. 

Let's be honest, on what other platform would a minigame collection and a remaster of a 7th gen game be chalked up as major releases? It shows how starved Switch's recent lineup has been that these are even in the conversation.

I am sure Nintendo has big guns coming up, but with the way the Switch is selling currently, they clearly don't need to announce or release them anytime soon. Same goes for price cuts. Like why release MK9 when MK8 (2014) sells just as well. Rockstar figured that out as well with GTA V (2013).

As for OP, 2025 is 8 or 8.5 years after launch. PS3 to PS4 to PS5 was 7 years. Wii to Wii U was 6 years.

By 2025 we might even have GTA VI. I think Nintendo wants to build up on their momentum with the Switch rather than stay stable, so launching a new ambitious console before 2025 would be helpful.
