As a Nintendo fan, I feel totally insulted by this Wii line-up.

I mean, the Switch's first half of the year for this year is pretty great, definitely the best Switch has had so far except MAYBE 2017 which is a bit unfair given it's the launch year and even that I would disagree with. 

I think Cerebral moreso means on the EPD level. In which case if the second half of the year was mostly spotlighted by big games technically not made by EPD (like in 2019, where the only thing they did was kind of assist with Link's Awakening), it wouldn't really make the situation any better. 

In 2019 EPD released Super Mario Maker 2, New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe and Ring Fit Adventure and in Japan Dr. Kawashima's Brain Training for Nintendo Switch.

Btw EPD also released Mario Kart Tour in 2019.

It's only the first half thus far and the second half can very well be much tighter packed, like in 2019.

So when I'm saying that Cerebral is probably specifically talking about EPD output (because we've talked together about this topic alot before) and thus comparing it to 2019 wouldn't do the year any favors, you don't disprove that by showing games that released before the second half of 2019, like Mario Maker 2 and NSMBUDX. The last half of 2019 only had Ring Fit Adventure from EPD, as well as Mario Kart Tour and Brain Training. But I mean ... really ... a mobile app which has nothing to do with the topic at hand which is the Switch lineup and a game so insignificant it wasn't even localized in the U.S.? 

I'm not saying 2019 was bad by the way, fucking loved that year. But there's no doubt that the second half of the year was made mostly by development partners, not Ninendo (EDIT: Worth mentioning though that Ring Fit is fucking huge though). Doesn't matter much to me, but it probably matters to the user you're replying to. I'd love anything as good as late 2019 quality-wise.
