A tricky thing is the Switch sharing three of its launch year games with the previous Nintendo system didn't matter cause it was a huge flop but the Switch 2 sharing Prime 4 and Legends Z-A with the Switch is significant due to how massive of a success the platform is so for some people those won't be "true" Switch 2 games and a reason to buy one. Overall the Switch had a stronger start for the average person first party wise due to that I'd say but the Switch 2 is looking like it'll have a really strong start too considering the three less months.

I feel like the kind of players who are interested in Prime 4 are the sort of enthusiast players who would also buy a Switch 2 in its first year, so I wouldn't be surprised if the game is a bigger deal on Switch 2 than Switch 1.

As for Pokémon, while it's audience is more casual, I think the draw of finally having halfway decent performance in a modern Pokémon title might draw many to get the Switch 2 version.
