Ehh, I wouldn't hold my breath on a Star Fox comeback any time soon.

I think the more likely, safer bet is now Nintendo is going to try to take Yoshi in the 3D direction.
They're 2 for 2 now with Kirby (Forgotten Land) and Donkey Kong (Bananza). And of course, Mario will always deliver on the 3D front.
Now it's Yoshi's turn.

Yoshi's Crafted World had 3D sections, but yes, Yoshi needs a fully 3D platformer.

3D Yoshi will almost surely wait until after Mario. Even if Mario is 2-4 years out still, it needs a 3D platformer on Switch 2. 

But 3D Yoshi might even come before another 3D Kirby game, despite the success and now new content of Forgotten Land.

There are probably a few teams that can work on 3D platformers at Nintendo, but not enough to devote development to 4 3D platformers at once I would think.

Switch 2: 120 million (was 116 million)

PS4: 120 mil (was 100 then 130 million, then 122 million) Xbox One: 51 mil (was 50 then 55 mil)

3DS: 75.5 mil (was 73, then 77 million)
