cross-gen? They did BOTW with WiiU+Switch, and their next console should be much closer in hardware to Switch than the Switch was to WiiU (in terms of architecture etc) and should be backwards compatible to boot. Software overlap between Switch and Switch 2 makes sense.

There seems little reason to not release Switch 2 versions of their software. After all Switch is full of "Deluxe" WiiU titles padding the lineup so we may even see a lot of that next generation with the Switch successor.

I can see them getting Mario Kart 9 ready for a Holiday 2023 launch as an exclusive, and perhaps Deluxe versions of games like Splatoon 3, BOTW2 or Smash Bros Ultimate.

Cross-gen isn't why someone would want new hardware.

Explain that to year 1 of Switch. Botw was cross gen, Splatoon 2 was basically Splatoon 1 with a bit more (until they came out with the expansion a while later). Mariokart was a port. Lego City undercover. I'm fairly certain had Wii U sold well then Arms as well as Mario rabbits have been Wii U games from them switch games. There is plenty more that works than 2017 that was probably been tested you guys it's meant to know probably wasn't counting on there flagship council only selling for four and a half years. Tons of Cross gens / ports. And yet switch took off like crazy.
