It's kind of like the Switch 2. Same form factor, same experience. Only snappier and with a little more oomph. It seems the industry is running low on innovation lately.

I mean, there's something to be said for "if it ain't broke, don't fix it".

The innovations of the Wii, DS, and Switch were driven by a need to expand a shrinking player base; there was no need for them to reinvent the wheel for Switch 2 because they already had a massive audience that loved the Switch and wanted more of the same but updated to modern standards.

There's less incentive to take a big risk if your current strategy is still working.

This exactly. Which is why it's weird to me that Sony changed their strategy this gen by not releasing many must have exclusives.
