Kirby and the Forgotten Land and Pokémon Legends: Arceus. Both games that are an evolution for their series and released this year. The very opposite of "stale".

"Stale" and "boring" is not the same btw.

As for your last paragraph: WTF!?!
Niche?! What the hell do you consider niche???
Are Kirby and Switch Sports niche? Is Xenoblade niche because it doesn't sell 5mil copies? Do you even know how much their games sell or do you consider everything that doesn't cater to "hardcore" gamers as niche?
The only game from this year where you can argue that is Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes, and even that one could end up selling over 2mil copies.
What do you consider niche?
