I remember in this thread saying how Nintendo didn't do enough to capitalize on the casual/simulator type games on Switch considering the massive success of Animal Crossing. I felt like games like Tomadachi Life and Nintendogs would've been perfect for the system and potentially even bigger system sellers than Mario/Zelda/Pokemon at this stage of the Switch's life since most people interested in those franchises already own a Switch, I felt like Tomadachi Life & Nintendogs could attract new and returning Nintendo users to Switch since the gap for those games haven't been so filled for the Switch.

Now we finally got Tomadachi Life like I asked for, but I feel like this is to little to late for my liking. Switch 2 will already have been released for a year by the time it releases and since Switch 2 will be able to play all Switch 1 games, people might just get the Switch 2 as opposed to Switch 1 especially if it isn't that much more expensive. It'll also release when Switch 1 hype in general will be at its lowest point and 6 years after the Animal Crossing craze, I think it would've been better to release this in 2022 or 2023 which would've given the Switch 1 a big boost, not when the Switch 1 is in its 11th hour.

However, it still should definitely hep make that push to 160 Million

Isn’t this more important for the Switch 2? Shouldn’t that be the prime directive at this point? Switch doesn’t need much help these days. There could be zero releases on it from this point on and it would probably still cross 160 million.
