Just 1-2 more big games and this year may very well top 2017 for me.

Arms felt like an early access game to me and still does. Fire Emblem Warriors didn't have the quality of Hyrule Warriors to me. Splatoon 2 was basically just Splatoon 1 for Switch with some added guns/maps (didn't even have a proper single player mode until the expansion later on). MK8 Deluxe was just a port with dlc.  XC 2, Botw, Mario + Rabbids, and SMO were stunning, though!

2022 has the most original main Pokemon game in decades, a Zelda sequel for the first time since MM and evoking strong connections to Skyward Sword and the origins of the curse with Demise, a much bigger budget Mario + Rabbids game than the first, the Botw of Kirby games with an actual high budget, a new Splatoon game that actually looks like they put a lot into it with it being stored focused, a sequel to a game that basically launched a new genre of games (pixelart HD), a long-awaited mature sequel, and remakes of the two best advanced wars games ever.

To me this is no contest, 2022 is insane! And we probably still have 2-3 major Nintendo games to be announced and released we don't know about, plus all the hidden gem indie games like Silksong that will probably come out and melt everybody's minds. If Donkey Kong 3d adventure game is a thing I may lose it, rip my shirt off, and run through the neighborhood screaming like Funky Kong in excitement while live streaming to the dozens that will watch it.
