The presentation was just sorta weird, Iwata and Miyamoto and Reggie are really missed for these kinds of presentations because they bring a lot more charm, even Koizumi and guys like that do. The way games were presented was all over the place too.

But there's actually quite a bit of a 1st party/1st party adjacent content.

Mario Kart World (June)
Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour (June)
Donkey Kong Bananza (July)
Drag x Drive (August?)
Metroid Prime 4 (2025)
Pokemon Z-A (2025)
Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment (Winter)

That is already 7 game releases ... June-December is only 7 months, I'm guessing they still have one more big release for 2025 that they will show later in a June Direct. 

Indeed. While there are reasons to be somewhat angry at Nintendo, I think first party support is not one of them. For a new system, there's plenty of games to look forward in the near future, and one of them is their heaviest hitter by a mile.

Heck, I don't even understand the third party support complaints. Not only is the Switch getting many modern multiplatform titles (and they are looking pretty good too, so future looks promising on that front) that the previous Switch missed, it also secured an insane exclusive like The Duskbloods.

I still think that the only thing people should be mad about is the price increase on games and specially the fact that they are trying to kill physical media for good. Everything else is looking amazing, easily topping any other console launch I can think of.
